Hi

I sponsored my wife and got the COPR and she will land in Canada shortly.

Does she or me have to show proof of funds (to support her) at the borders along with the COPR and passports?

I read somewhere that this is required for landed immigrants but i am not sure it also applies to sponsored spouse?

I do not think you need to show any proof but they might ask how much fund your wife has. I think this is just for information purpose , amount of fund wont matter.

Not for family sponsorship. You've probably heard it from other immigration route.
