Thanks!
Personally, I don't think home country ties and financial requirements are high for this new spousal TRV application. However, we did provide everything we could. For example, we provided deployment letters and account summaries for both her and me (but informed them very clearly that I'll be paying for all her expenses while in Canada in my Invitation letter).
We have consolidated an additional material doc including:
1. Invitation letter, stating we are eager to reunite, my status in Canada and my financial status (employment, savings and pay), and I'll sponsor her for her stay.
2. Statement of Purpose: We were very honest about it, she intends to come to visit me for a short period and will be waiting for PR, she might apply for OWP or go home after several months and she is currently employed back home. In both letters, we mentioned the new policy and appealed emotionally.
3. Her one-way flight ticket she booked in last year as we expected our PR to be approved in less than a year.
4. Her flight ticket.
5. Travel Insurance I bought for her. I strongly recommend buying it, without it, you might get bankrupt if anything happens to a visitor.
Overall, I am not very satisfied with the application statement (by the standard of a standard TRV application). We did show we really missed each other and we'd love to meet and live together, she will apply for OWP while waiting for PR. We uploaded her employment letter to show her tie. Other than that we didn't mention any other ties like her family. For her visiting purpose, we are kind of open to options, because she might really need to go home. In short, we were honest, mainly focused on demonstrating our desire to live together (and contribute to Canada as a family as Sean Fraser put it).
Hope this helps and wish you best of luck.
