I see you were asking about attending school so assume you may be in your 20s or even 30s. If there is a large age difference there could be concerns that this is not a genuine marriage. You will also have to show that you can support your family. Having a husband move to Canada will leave him very little time to work in Canada and will lead to a minimal pension. Hopefully he has significant savings.

And in any health condition.
This is not completely true. In case of a public health threat (for example a highly contagious disease like Ebola), this can result in a medical rejection.

A valid point. Ok, I should have said "not subject to Excessive Demand restrictions on his health".

If it is a spouse excessive medical demand doesn’t apply here. The situation does not seem as straightforward as some other spousal sponsorships.
