dear all
please give quick advice

my husbands sponsorship was almost complete in September, he was asked to go for his final medical, however we have been having many disagrrememts
last month in October we decided we might not continue with the marriage
2 weeks ago I asked my laywer to send an email to immigration office telling that we might file for divorce and to withdraw the application

but now we might reconcile
have I lost the immigration file?
is there any option available to me?
has anyone gone through similar experience?
please kindly give any info available

hello guys .... my wife is scheduled for an interview on December the 5th. this is what it says in the email



At the interview please present the following original documents for all persons on the application (if applicable) unless they have already been sent with your application:


Your passport and that of your sponsor, if he or she is present in your country of habitual residence at the time of interview, and all children who possess their own passports;
· Police certificates or clearances from each country in which you and everyone in your family aged 18 years or over, and who are included in your application, have resided six months or more since reaching 18 years of age;
· Supporting documents substantiating your relationship to your sponsor: (as many as possible that apply to your category, the originals will be returned to you)
Photos of you and your sponsor together (i.e. outings, engagement, wedding ceremony, wedding reception, etc...) Please identify the persons in the photos and describe the scenes, either on the back of the photos or on a separate sheet of paper.

o If you are married, copies of sponsor’s passport showing entry and exit stamps for the country where your marriage took place.
Divorce certificate or death certificate of you or your sponsor’s previous spouse(s), as the case may be


i have been married before, i have already included a copy of my divorce certificate with the application, but since they said original here. should i send her the original to her? she is in Ethiopia, and i am in canada. or will be ok if she takes a coloured copy with her? is the divorce certificate that important. specially since its issued by canada? i have about 25 days, i would like to know if i have to send the original now or just a scan it nd send by email. thanks guys.
Notarised coloured copy of divorce certificate will serve the purpose as common sense goes.

But if original is available it will be even better if your spouse take it with her.

YEs, your wife must bring ALL original documents at the interview, and ALL documents related to you are important to the VO. BTW, I'm aware that you are somalian. I'm also sponsoring my wife from Somalia. Why don't they interview her at any IOM facilty in SOmalia? My wife is from Hargeisa and if they call her for an interview, I will ask them to interview her at the IOM facility in Hargeisa because usually interviews are held in the PA's home country.
i am not somalian, i am somali :) canada doesnt have embassy or counsalte in somalia/somaliland. wife is from hargeisa too. they asked us if she wants to be interviewed in one of these cities, addis abab, djibouti, or nairobi.

Hi,

If they haven't closed your file yet, please send them email and letter by DHL that you have restored relationship with your spouse which was a misunderstanding and you want your spouse to come to Canada after approval. Please submit the same letter online by CSE. Go to your MP's office with a similar letter and let his office communicacate with CIC to revive the application. Sjgolfer here faced the similar situation and after almost 18 moths his file has been reapproved, now waiting to receive his passport.


Good luck!

Dear guys,
Yesterday I got updated background check from not started to in progress. Today I got an email requesting documents from sponsor
1. A copy of your Sponsor’s Notice of Assessmentissued by the Canada Revenue Agency for the tax years 2014 and 2015
For the tax , I am sure that we had sent them with the package files. I don't understand why they require them again , those are lost or any idea or any suggestions ? Is this related with the sponsor approval ? We got SA already , but at that time family member is only one . It's me. Later on i gave birth and updated form to notice the information to svo. This is possible that they will re process about the SA decision.

2. For Sponsor: A written statement indicating what your plans are relative to returning to Canada (timing, etc.) Do you think the timing return to Canada that we will write on, it would be the condition for approving PR? What is the best deal about timing . Please give me some advice.
Thanks so much
Nattha
Hi,

1) Send them copies of tax assessment again. Income has nothing to do with SA approval or PR approval under spousal sponsorship application.

2) Yes if sponsor is living outside Canada this point is extremely crucial to give them a comprehensive settlement plan that the sponsor would return to Canada as soon as spousal PR visa is approved.

Good luck!

Hasan

my interview date is 8th dec in dhaka.
Practice, practice and practice! Conduct mock video interview as many as possible and every time correct yourself in terms of your body language and the way you speak! Don't hesitate to ask you any critical questions.

Check if all documents have been arranged as per your comprehensive check list.

Hope you will come back with flying colour!

+1(Good) for you to send you a positive vibe!!

Good luck!

Hi,

Exactly I thought so! It was my apprehension that the Bangladeshi officer wanted to check some papers or documents before the final interview with an immigration officer. Though it is expected that your interview will be very easy, I strongly suggest you to go fully prepared in terms of all documentation and papers as per your detailed check list.

Practice is also very important. So please practice accordingly. Have positivity and look at every details, cross check everything to make sure that you are 100% confidence to face this life time challenge.

+1(Good) for you to send you a positive vibe!!

Good luck!

Hasan
