Visa refusal 3 times for spouse

[candz]

Hi all,
I am an international student. I am in canada for one year now. I tried to apply for my spouse to come visit in me in Canada 3 times and it was refused. The first 2 reason was purpose of visit. We requested the notes and it said economic conditions in home country. On the 3rd attempt we recieve the refusal letter from cic but it was based on a study permit. Please note we did not apply for such. But the letter we recieved had information about a studg permit. Any assistance will be grateful please

International students are no guaranteed a visa to accompany their spouses to Canada. Once you apply for you PGWP and you have secured a full-time job in NOC 0, A or B and have proof of 3 pay slips your spouse qualifies for an OWP. Did you apply for a TRV or OWP?

I applied for a trv. I am here for one year now.

I meant he applied for trv. I am a student here.

It's pretty evident that your husband will apply for a SOWP after he arrives. But, he needs a TRV to travel to Canada first. IRCC is aware of these intentions.

It would be best not to reapply at this point in time until you have a full-time job with at least three payslips

This is incredible....so students now can no longer bring their spouses? When i was studying many colleagues had their families in Canada...did they now stop doing that? Or is it different if they all apply together from the outset?

If this is a new policy, then Canadian universities are basically going to struggle to attract grad student, if they cannot bring their families.

Hey buddy they Canadian embassy gave you study visa to study in Canada and obtain a pgwp and get pr not to bring your family members to any particular reasons.they will give visitor visa to your family member unless it is graduation ceremony . Even in that occasion it is hit and miss . While applying thrice is putting your profile is weak zone . Good luck

I think you meant to quote OP, hehe. But same as a work permit (or the H4 visa currently under attack by trump), it's pointless to give a prospective Master's or phD student or a worker a visa if you'll force them to spend years and years without their families. I understand that for visitor visas as the purpose is short term, but studying or working is long-term and it is brutal to require the applicant to live without their spouse and children.

Most PhD and master students are given visas to bring their spouses if they have the funds to support them. It is less likely if pursuing certificates, diplomas, undergrad, etc.

Applicants chose to apply to study or work in Canada. If it means that they have to live separately from their families to get a better life for them, its their choice to do so. You can't expect IRCC to let in everyone who wants to apply. They don't care about anyone personal feelings.

Their job is to assess whether the applicants have the right reason to enter, whether they are criminally admissible, if they have ties to return to their country without violating any immigration law and their financial ability to maintain their stay in Canada. If applicants and their families can prove all that then i see no reason why IRCC should deny them.

The stats for Indian students studying abroad indicate that Canada is the premier/ most preferred destination. Obviously, these students could become eligible for PGWPs (depending on the study program, of course) leading to PRs. Basically, the route to permanent residence via a study permit is much more difficult for other countries.

By granting SOWPs to spouses of students who have not paid taxes indirectly implies that the number of jobs available to tax-paying Canadians will become fewer. Spouses of Masters and PhD students are more likely to get SOWP approvals (although not guaranteed) with the chances of approvals increasing after the student gets PGWP and starts working (here to stay and will pay taxes.... so can bring their spouses and families)
