Hello everyone,

I am a Canada PR holder planning to land Canada in February, and planning to sponsor my spouse via family class sponsorship programme. I believe that's the option to get PR for my wife. My doubts are :

1) Once she get a PR through family class, will she be able to work in Canada? or do I need to get a open work permit visa?
2) There is a spelling mistake in her mom's name on her birth certificate. We tried to rectify it by visiting corresponding govt offices, however no luck and they said its not possible to change now(due to complications). What should I do here?
3) Once I land in Canada, I guess i either need to have a bank balance as proof of funds to sponsor her or find a job and show the income status?

Also, apart from the official CIC website docs, is there any other step by step guide which I can follow to fill out the application?

Please advise

Thanks much.

1) A permanent resident can work, move, travel or do any thing in canada.
2) I am not a legal expert on this so I can just give a opinion. you can get a affidavit on stamp paper, mentioning two names (correct name and incorrect name) stating that both of them are same person.
I remember doing it for my parents visitor visa (my passport says jayeshbhai ramanbhai patel, while his passport says jayeshkumar ramanlal patel). So we made an affidavit saying Jayeshbhai Ramanbhai Patel and Jayeshkumar Ramanlal Patel are the same person and the father of Fenilkumar Jayeshbhai Patel.

This is my experience with the visitor visa.

3) You do not need bank balance or income status to sponsor ur spouse.

hi congratulations !!
Did you get any Waybill number for the courier or they just call you to pick up the passport. My wife status says the passport has been couriered yesterday but no info regarding the tracking the courier . I tried by entering the VFS tracking ID as ref no. but nothing comes up.

It will take a day. Your tracking no is the reference no. Once there is movement, vfs will send your waybill no. Please check tomorrow again.
