Situation -- My Husband (Canadian PR) has just moved to Canada and looking for a job. I've read somewhere that job is not a necessary requirement for sponsoring.

Question 1 -- In this case, do we wait till he finds a job before sponsoring me for PR?

Question 2 -- Has anyone been in the situation before, i.e. sponsoring without job in Canada?

Question 3 -- Is proof funds sufficient as a replacement to job?

To sponsor a wife you do not need to have a minimum income.

You are fine.

rrv, although no minimum income is req'd you will have to show how the 2 of you will support yourselves. If your sponsor has a place for you to live such as family or friends you should include a letter from them explaining they will provide for the 2 of you until such time as you can become financially independent. Concern for cic that you may have to rely on social assistanvce to survive
