Spousal sponsorship

[micachu]

Hi, my husband received a notice that i must submit schedule A form and that I will also receive the same request within 5 days, but i did not. However, i still went ahead and fill out Schedule A. Upon checking today, i noticed that I do not have the option to upload any documents in myCIC account.

Does anyone know what i can do? TIA!

Hi everyone,

I think I have asked this question already a year ago but I have completely forgotten and I can't seem to know how to navigate around this website to find my previous posts. Anyway, in one of the questions for the principal applicant, "How many family members, including you, are in this application?" Do I include our son, who is a citizen, in the count?

If he is already Canadian citizen, the answer is, No.

Hi,
I got a question regarding spousal proof. It states to provide letter, printed text messages etc.
When me and my spouse communicate via txt we use our mother tongue not english nor french. Do we have to provide certified translation for it?

No, you don't need to have them formally translated. You can just translate them yourselves.

When you say your application has been rejected twice what do you mean? They sent the whole thing back to you without processing? In which case they should have pointed out what was missing

They did point it out and this is the section they highlighted. I tried sending it in with social media posts, wedding cards etc. from family and friends but it was returned.

Like I said in the above post, I think the issue is they want at least 1 document from 3 of those 6 categories. I obviously can’t provide anything for 5 of those categories so I have no clue what to do here.

We added an additional page full of names.... If they don't care for over 5 people they'll ignore that page but I've met 40 of her family members and we wanted to document that. They won't penalise the extra page since they ask to attach extra pages if necessary.

Thanks for your response Jeff. We put my parents' name together, his parent's name together, and then 3 more people (since there are 5 rows provided to answer this question). Then in Question 11 of this form (the very last question) where they ask "Is there more information you wish to share to support your relationship?", we wrote down

"All of our family members, relatives, and friends know about our relationship. PRINCIPAL APPLICANT has met many of SPONSOR's family, relatives and friends, and SPONSOR has also met many of PRINCIPAL APPLICANT's. Our relationship is known to everybody in our lives. However, due to the limited space to answer PART C Question 7, we could only give details about seven individuals . Nonetheless, some of our friends and relatives whose names were not mentioned in PART C Question 7, have written letters to corroborate the authenticity of our relationship and to verify that we have a public relationship that is known and recognized by our friends and family. These letters are included in our application package under "Supporting Documents for Sponsored Person". The 20 photographs that we have submitted with the application also help prove that our relationship is publicly recognized."

What do you guys think of it?

1. Buy a Life Insurance Policy where you nominate her a beneficiary. It's not very expensive.
2. Ask your relatives/family members to write a letter confirming that your relationship genuine with dates when it started.
Attach it to the package with an explanatory letter why you can not provide more evidence but comply if they will request more.
If you need examples, PM me, I have some forms that might fit your needs.

Got a question - I am approved as eligible to sponsor my husband. His application is now in process at the visa office. Now is there a problem if I quit my job? I am a student and it's getting really difficult for me to study and work at the same time, especially in the last year of my degree.

Only the principal applicant fills that out. Not the sponsor

a really confusing question. When i entered Canada, at the border, they messed up my name. Made my middle name first name, and first name as middle. So, I had been using the 2nd version (the Canadian border version) since ever. University, school and work has my 2nd version, whereas my passport and other official documents have my first version of name (as it was since birth).

I have this document from the Canada that says at the bottom that I am "ALSO KNOWN AS - 2nd version". I want to attach that document with my package that I want to sent, as my employment letter has that 2nd version name.

On the application forms, they ask if I had used any other names, and i answered NO to all of them. If I go back and answer them now, I will have to print the forms again and get my hubby to sign them again and send another courier (which will take another few weeks to get to me).

What is the short cut? Get another letter of employment with my 1st version name? Or attach this document from Canada that says that I also go by the 2nd version of name?

Please, let me know, as I was ready to post my package tomorrow, but my dad has me all confused.

Thank you.

You can quit the job, that is not mandatory to do job.
