Hello Everyone!
I am sure many people have had experiences with this office previously... I know I have... however I was wondering if anyone would be interested in providing me with some advice!
At the present time, we are currently waiting on the sponsorship approval component for my wife's PR application. I haven't seen her in 5 months, and she is planning on applying for a TRV in April so that the interview process will coincide with my next visit. I do not want her to have to go through that alone again
. We are really hoping to have it work out this time, as she has yet to meet my family, and we would like to spend a month together before she goes to Australia (with a multiple entry and work permit) to wait out this PR process. It would be preferred that she stay here, however, if that isn't in the cards, at least we have a back up plan for the time being.
My questions for the wonderful forum members are:
1. Will my sponsorship approval help or hinder her TRV application? I have heard so many conflicting stories that my head is spinning. I know that this particular visa office is erratic in their decision making process (at best). For what it's worth, with the sweet sweet time that CIC is currently taking to go through the January 2012 applicants, I may not even know one way or another by mid-April! All we have right now is a receipt number, not even an AOR (the package was received by CIC on January 19th :-[ ).
2. How should we structure the application? Previously (before we were married), we had all the proof of her international travels, proof of our relationship (travelling together, phone calls, skype, etc), bank statements showing her financially flush even by Canadian standards, a letter from her employer, my employer confirming salary, my T4 and monthly tax stubs, my bank statements, a letter of invitation from me accepting full responsibility and financial support (great career), proof of my home ownership, a detailed itinerary of her stay, letters of support from her family saying she needed to come back, letter of invitation from my family also accepting full responsibility and financial support in case something were to render me incapable (death, disability), ID documents from all parties, and possibly numerous other documents that would support her application. It was met with a big fat denial. Seeing as this time we are married, how should I structure this application? I thought she had a solid case last time, but alas it was not. The only thing I could think of her not having is a kid which she would leave behind and/or property ownership to prove her return. Would her OZ Visa help the case, along with a simple "does it make any sense that I would overstay in freezing cold Canada and ruin the chance to be with my husband all to be an illegal immigrant with no friends and family when I can easily go to OZ and earn better income in a field of employment relevant to my University Degree while waiting for my permanent residency approval?" :-\.
Thank you all in advance! This is driving me insane!
