Given that SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP seems to rely on far too many moving parts, I was wondering if it would make any sense for my spouse from the PHILIPPINES
to get a CANADIAN SKILLED WORKER VISA instead of, or perhaps a stepping stone in the process of applying for SPONSORSHIP.. :-X
I haven't been able to find much information on going this route as it probably isn't very popular. ???
I'll give a little background.. I'm a young guy - Early 20's, from a lower class family, I am technically UNEDUCATED, although have been a Vineyard Technician for the last 5 years.
My wife is a Registered Nurse in the Philippines living with her middle-upper class family. We have tried numerous times to fill out our various documents mentioned by the checklist,
as DAUNTING as they are, and we've run into several problems;
1. Many of these documents outright EXPIRE (Ex. Police Clearances) quite rapidly in relation to the time it takes to get the other documents together.
2. Most of the information on my documents specifically also CHANGES rapidly, this being partially due to the fact that I need to UPROOT semi-annually
as local landlords ask for higher and higher rent.
3. My job has recently changed management and so work conditions have changed dramatically in the direction of being far less safe and with much less reliable income,
therefor I could end up having to abandon the company at any given moment when my employer eventually changes expectations into the realm of complete
unrealism.
4. Other potential sponsors in my family are in a worse financial position.
5. I am not comfortable with the PHILIPPINES postal system, as packages are frequently lost, stolen, or arrive unpredictably, so the idea of mailing out ORIGINALS
of vital documents such as BIRTH CERTIFICATE and MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE feels unnecessarily dangerous, or at best, a cause for major delays and re-attempts.
6. It seems as if everything has to be signed by everyone. There is not clear language on this, and this alone has the potential to break the whole application attempt.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We've been together since 2010 and married since 2015 and we're getting sick of people asking why we haven't just miraculously gotten all of this over with yet.
We technically don't even know how to start, despite the very slow assistance of an expensive immigration lawyer who seems to ignore all of our main concerns
while she just hammers us repeat emails checklists.
ALTHOUGH, It seems as if avoiding SPONSORSHIP and instead going the SKILLED WORKER route would eliminate most of the concerns listed above,
but unfortunately this comes with new concerns, such as, given that Immigrating to be with your spouse via the Skilled Worker program is so rare
as to not even be mentioned on any Google search I've made in the last two years, I'm afraid that an Immigration Officer will look at this information
and reject my wife's SKILLED WORKER APPLICATION at face value. :'(
This is an emotional subject for us as we have invested much time/energy/money into getting through this to no avail, so we would really appreciate
your patience and kindness in offering advice, for which we are seeking. :
