I am sponsoring my husband from Pakistan. I submitted the forms in August 2008. My hubby was interviewed last year. Just recently, last month, he received a letter asking 3 questions.

1. Please advice what are your plans for permanent residence in Canada ie taking extended leave from your current job.

2.Please advise what are are your employment plans in Canada?

3. What plans have you you and the sponsor discussed if his application form permanent is not approved?


I am really concerned about the last question as it seems tricky. Can anyone guide me in this matter? anybody with

A little background about myself,

I am 28 yrs old female , permanent resident who was married to a canadian citizen( I was sponsored to Canada). I

and now got divorced and am sponsoring my new husband.
 
Tell them if he is not approved you will do what ever you have to(appeal).Try again etc.Tell them you never really thought about it all you did was think about what your going to do when he gets here.
 
if they are asking job wise, it has to be that perhaps they are concerned that he is not employable. And you have to find a way around that.

Perhaps he is not a skilled worker? And they think he will not be able to get a job? What are his skills? experience? Easiest jobs that do not require much more than high school education would be clerical/admin/sales

BTW when i went for my medical appointment, the doctor asked me what i was work in Canada. He wrote down my response. So another issue could be what he told the doctor and what the doctor wrote or if he has a medical problem that prevents him from working that you have not disclose to us.

The other thing i think about is whether he speaks english or not! perhaps that is something they also are concerned about.

It has to be something he said in the interview so he needs to go over his responses.

Basically the questions are because the sponsor came to Canada as sponsored spouse, divorced and is now sponsoring a spouse herself. Depending on the length of the first marriage/sponsorship/landing/divorce, CHC is having doubts about the relationship. What they want to know if the application/appeal is refused, will the sponsor go to live with the spouse in Pakistan.
 
Here is a little more info about the case.

-My previous marriage lasted for about 3 years and half and Have no kids. I was sponsored in canada by my ex-husband.
-My present husband was also married for 10 years with another woman and have one daughter, who lives with his ex-wife through court custody. He pays his daughter every month by a court order. After their divorce, his ex-wife married again with another man and have a child with him.
-My husband married with me after 1 years of their divorce. and now we are married for more than 2 years and half. Have no child yet. I have visited and lived with him few times in Pakistan.

-My huband is a skilled trade man, works for a governmental company in Pakistan.
-He speaks basic English.

-His case was filed in Aug 2008, he had his interview last year in July 2009. He was asked to bring all originals and passport size photos with him, but he forgot bring photos. Officer told him to send them as soon as possible. He did within a week.
-According to his CAIPS note, it states "Interview is satisfing, prove to be a genuine relationship, proceed with the file".
-He has no illness and his medical report is also ok according to his CAIPS note. He has sent second medical after the first one got expired.

For the first two question of the letter:
I would say after getting his visa, he will resign the present job. Once he arrives in Canada. he will do his English language courses and most likely do his own trade job. His trade have no licencing issue like any other trades.
The third question is tricky one.
 
Thank you!

I just posted more detail about the case.
A friend of mine told me she was asked the same question during her interview. what would you do if he case was refused. she answered her husband will reapply. She has three children. and she told the officer her children can not live without their father.

Since in my case we have no children involved. please give more input.
 
According to his CAIPS note, it states "Interview is satisfing, prove to be a genuine relationship, proceed with the file".

Okay if the above was said, maybe its just routine questions! And he is skilled, which is good.

Third question: INdicate that you will appeal. You love your husband dearly. That you have not found happiness in your first marriage, but now you have found true happiness with him (Second marriage) and this is the person that you want to share your life with. Also indicate that why you want him to move to Canada instead of your moving to his country. But express your love for him, let them know that you would appeal, you would talk to your MP. Let them know that time is running out for both of you as you are a mature couple? (well on the basis of 2nd marriage etc) And you really want to be together... :)
 
I have a hunch that they're asking about his job options (which is usually kind of rare considering spouses have no income requirement, and this isn't the skilled worker category) because he works for the government of Pakistan. They may or may not want someone who works government work in another country to work for the Canadian government.
