I recently asked this question under "spousal sponsorship" however no one has replied, hopefully I can get an answer here......

I was wondering if it would hurt my application that if and when my husband lands that I have multiple people saying they will help support us??
My parents have offered but they live in a very rural part of BC, about an hour outside Kamloops. And I have my sister, and 2 older ladies (almost like family) offering us to stay with them until we get established on Vancouver Island, which is where I would prefer to live. I also own a house on the Island but won't be moving into it until we can get jobs......suggestions?? Thanks for all your help.

supporting letters from family and friend are good /help for your applications.
if you plan to come to Canada after apply for outland, you can send a proof you are in Canada and maybe job offer etc.

No, it will not hurt the app.

Why not have those relatives write the letters for you to submit before CIC makes the decision? If he is granted right of PR I don't think you will need to prove anything upon landing. I think your problem will arise from pre-landing.

Agree with the above poster. Support letters won't hurt your case at all, but they are not needed at landing. At landing your husband will already have the PR visa and will be allowed in. I have never heard of anyone being refused landing when the relationship was still intact. He won't have to prove anything then.

Support letters should be sent in with the application. You can also send them later if the visa officer asks for more proof your relationship is genuine, or they could be presented at the interview if there is one.
