Hi All,
Hope someone can share their own experience regarding this.
If one is to sponsor their common-law partner who has two children living overseas and declare the children as non-accompanying dependents, is the undertaking a financial commitment for the common-law partner only or does in include the non-accompanying dependents?
Sponsoring my partner would commit me to a 3 year undertaking, but his children would be a 10 year commitment, so I want to be sure.
I have had contradictory answers reading online, so would really appreciate the answer of someone who knows for sure or who has had the actual lived experience.
Some people suggest that as non-accompanying, the dependents are not getting sponsorship/PR, and that they would need to do a whole new/separate application (e.g., their father could sponsor them himself once he is a PR). Thanks in advance for anyone who has answers.
