How long have you already been on PGWP? What is your current occupation? What was the reason for the first rejection? How long ago was it?

Dude, i dont understand this. I mean, spouse always accompanies the hubby when the later is on a student visa and even works on a OWP. what went wrong?? U can read lot of other discussions regarding this case on this forum. I am also planning to apply as a student and shall place my wife's file along with mine. I have 3-4 frds there in canada who have gone along with their wife.. i fail to understand ur situation.

well not always people can apply together in OPs case he must have chosen to apply later for his wife. its sometimes could be safer for the principle applicant to apply alone without spouse as visa chances increase.

@ jackpatel
can u give more info on ur spouses application like what documents did u attach? what was ur financial status? what is ur spouses qualification , what was the reason for rejection etc. yes u can apply for visitors visa for spouse but for OWP u need to be working in NOC 0,A or B to qualify.

Thanks guys for your response.

Yes I didn't include my wife's visa application with my student visa because I had a gap of 8 years and to increase the chance of visa I didn't included her in my application. I am working as IT Network Administrator and the pay is 17/hr since last 4 months, I graduated in dec 2012.
When I applied both the times for my wife my status was student and was doing a co-op job. Both the times the reason for rejection were "family ties" I don't understand that I showed our Marriage Certificate, Wedding's Pictures, My Cell Record, Our chat sessions, I showed 5k in Canada and about 15k back in india. My wife is a house wife and I am the only person in my house who is working, (Family-Me, My wife and my mom)

Can anyone guide me what can I do? My friend just got married and he got her wife's visa just after 3 months of wedding. They are even rejecting the Visitor Visa, Doesn't make Sense.

duration of wedding is not ur problem . When u were a student u need to show funds for ur tuition plus funds to support u and ur wife i am sure $20k was not enough. by family ties means that u do not have enough ties to ur home country that would force u back. if u have any property or any other such liability that would force u back to ur home country u should add those documents. chat records etc is not needed ...u should attach marriage cert, wedding pic is ok if u want to but i would suggest remove them too unless asked. attach ur visa PGWP copies attach ur wifes study history work history etc. also make sure u have enough money to support both of u in canada ... since now ur working pay stubs or tax returns would help too....

Thanks for the reply,

Okay at that time the case was different I was on Student Visa, What do you think about now? I am a full time Worker I job falls under NOC A. What are the chances? how much bank balance should I show? Will Property on my name shows her ties to our home country?

You have good chances. How long have you been working? I would say you should have 3 to 6 months earnings in your saving account to be on a safe side.

Will Property on my name shows her ties to our home country?

No. NEVER CIC accept a property as a tie. NEVER. People buy and sell properties never being in the country. Your wife can sell her property from Canada in a day giving an affidavit to do so to her mother/father/sibling in her home country .

property documents will help for home ties......

Did you tried applying online for spouse visa, it is the best and easiest way to apply. I am on student visa came in September intake and i applied in November for my wife with only marriage certificate, i didn't even submitted my passport copies i just wrote my visa details in her sop. she got visa in 1 month time. We showed only 4k funds in her bank account.

We showed only 4k funds in her bank account.

That is a MINIMUM what CIC requests for a "dependent" for a year. So 3 months earning is "to be on a safe side". You were a student , usually students are not the richest persons in the world.

And OP is WORKING and should show a little bit more than just a minimum.
