Dear
@Bryanna
How long would this take?
You may want to consider including a small explanation that would say you will not be applying for spousal PR in the next X years due to your personal and professional commitments in Vietnam. You would need to be careful how you word this explanation.
They say it takes approximately 5 months for proof of citizenship, add 6-8 months if I'm applying from outside of Canada and through an embassy or consulate, so the maximum time I would say is 13 months from April 2018 as thats the date they sent a correspondence letter stating they received the applications.
Is this valuation recognized by the local government?
You would also want to include other supporting evidence to confirm that the indicative market value is indeed as per the assessment. For example, excerpts from realty reports for the same area where your home is.
Yes, this company has certification stamp and seal.
There is a certification stating the result value of the assessment including assessments of similiar market assets nearby.
Any compelling work commitments for you and your wife to return to?
As stated, I have a ranking position as Deputy General Director of a large company, currently with 300+ staff managing a water bottling company, a theme park and also in process of developing a town housing/condo area. My wife is Assistant to Deputy General Director and we both have been working at the company since 2012 up to date. (2012 signed first initial contract, after 2 years according to labour law in Vietnam you must sign an indefinate term contract which ours was signed in 2014).
She must include evidence for the market value of that 5% shareholding.
We attached the company business registration which includes a certification of the shareholders stating the name of shareholder, total shares, % of shares, value of shares.
No, a trip to Japan won't help simply because her visit to Canada (with far too many stronger ties to Canada) makes a visit to any other visa-required country seem insignificant/won't help for Travel History.
This is more of an option for relaxation but since we are on a tight schedule to get the visas for Dec 20 we most likely will not go until after our return.
Do post the complete list of documents i.e. your wife's documents + your documents to prove your reasons to return to Vietnam, etc
1/ Certificate of asset valuation (Includes; certificate signed and sealed, explanation of valuation appraisal report (valued at about $700,000 CDN)
2/ Labour contract of husband + application for leave (Signed and sealed by General Director (income of about $3,300 CDN/month)
3/ Household booklet with Husband, wife, daughter and son (Only permanent residents of Vietnam can receive this booklet)
4/ Letter to VO (Stating our 17 month year old son will not accompany us to Canada and will be cared for by wife's mother and nanny (also we will leave about $1,000 CDN for wife's mother while we are gone for any expenses incurred)
5/ Contract of construction for our secondary home + building permit (Contract signed by local contractor; no company seal (valued at about $45,000 CDN))
Do you think these are strong enough ties? What else could I possibly attach to make our ties stronger? I see that having the permanent resident status is a very strong tie.
I forgot to add, this is seems like a bad thing but also in a good way, I have a credit card with credit limit of about $27,000 CDN in which I have to pay minimum deposit and interest of 3% monthly (~$830 CDN). Would this suffice as a obligation tie to return?
