The spouse decides not to immigrate

[DimensionSlider]

Hello,

Can you please give me any advice on this topic:

My friend and his spouse received PR visas (FSW 2014).

The spouse is the second applicant, she helped to score additional points for them to pass requirement (70 points).

Now there may be a small chance that second applicant decides not to immigrate to Canada.

Would it mean that primary applicant won't be able to immigrate either?

No primary applicant can go to CA.
However if she does not stay number of years in CA at the time of renewal wife wont be able to renew the PR.

Did some reasearch:

Pursuant to R77, these requirements and criteria must be met at the time the application is made,
as well as at the time the visa is issued.

Therefore:
if an applicant‘s spouse or common-law partner is no longer accompanying them, then any
points that they may have received for their adaptability cannot be counted;

I guess not.

The spouse's additional score to your marks is effective whether or not she is accompanying you. Her refusal to go will not affect the landing of the principal applicant. she cannot go without him but he can go without her. I will advice that your spouse goes to land with you for 2 weeks or so. you can collect her PR card on her behalf in case she makes up her mind to come in the next year or 2. She might change her mind later when it dawns on her that she will be in your home country all alone. If she refuses to change her mind about coming when you have both landed, you can tell the immigrations that she is your home country undergoing so treatment and she may not come in a looong while. Pleaseeeeee beg her to go with you for 4 or 5 days. Its a life-time opportunity to raise a family in Canada and you have come allllll the way in the process. Beg her..
