Hi,
I've been living abroad for a couple of years and plan on returning to Canada this August for law school. I'll be officially unemployed when I get back. Because I've never worked very much (I was a student for 5 years, and have been teaching English under the table for the last year), and I don't have a lot of savings, I've been told it would be prudent to include a letter stating how my wife and I intend to support ourselves when we get to Canada. In this letter, would it be wise to say I'll be relying on student loans and a little bit of help from family in my case, and working and savings in my wife's case? I'm mostly concerned about mentioning student loans.
Thanks!

Hi, I am a full time student (I sponsored my husband) and our application has been approved.

I include a copy of the print out from the Alberta Student Loan website showing how much I had been approved for in loans and we also include a letter from my mother stating that she had the means and was willing to offer financial support if needed.
