The sponsor does not do a medical. If you mean your wife is sponsoring YOU, then your medical may be extended.

My wife's medical has expired one month ago. Our file has been in process since october 2010. I emailed Damascus (septmber 2011) regarding status and they said: Please be advised that your wife's application is in queue for review by the responsible officer. When a decision is made or we require any additional information or documents, you or your spouse will be contacted.
Mikie what is your question???

Is you wife in Canada with you? If she is, then possibly. If she is NOT IN CANADA, then NO.

Hi Everyone
My case is slightly more complicated, In fact I have made it complicated and now I need help. I have already applied for PR in June 2011, my wife and daughter (both Canadian citizens) live in Canada. Case has been forwarded to CHC Islamabad; now I need to finish my education, I have been studying ACCA in London for a couple of years but moved back to Pakistan without completing it. I have been offered admission in ACCA course in Toronto, (course fee around CAD $ 5000 p.a and course duration is also 1 year) now I need to know 3 things regarding this PR and student visa,
1. My wife is not working there, I send her money from Pakistan since she went there, do I have to show my funds for student visa with 2 dependents? (i.e wife and daughter).
2. I don’t have money in my account as it is all stuck in cash crop. I receive this once a year, when sugar cane processing starts in Sugar Mills in mid of November every year. This would not leave me with the option to wait for 4 months (to maintain bank statement) and then apply for student visa as my course starts on Feb 22nd 2012, I have been told by college to apply by 20-25th of November 2011. Would that have effect on my application if I get money from Sugar Mill into my account by 15th November 2011 and apply my case by 25th November 2011?
3. What would be the grounds of explaining them that I intend to go there for study and will not reside there permanently while my PR application is under process? I have gone through something known as “dual intent” is that going to help in any way? I am confused I can show enough ties to Pakistan like my commercial, residential and agriculture property with a combined value of around 70-80 million PKR, is that going to affect my PR in any way?
Awaiting reply
Regards

pls what is the different between social assistance and employment insurance
thanks.
Employment Insurance (EI) is what you receive for a fixed period of time if you are laid off from your job. The purpose of EI is to provide you with support while you look for another job. From an immigration standpoint, being on EI does not affect your ability to sponsor someone.

Social Assistance is Welfare. Welfare is what you can receive if you can't find a job or way to support yourself and your EI has run out. From an immigration standpoint, being on welfare prevents you from sponsoring someone.
