Not accompanying spouse:: Any problem

[DESAIronak]

Hello mates,

I am not accompanying spouse and just want to apply for my PR, are they asking for any reason for such decision?

Regards,
Ronak

No - they won't ask for a reason.

Keep in mind that the non-accompanying spouse will still need to complete and pass the medical - and also provide police certificates and pass the security / background checks.

She will need to provide PCCs for the US and any other country she has lived in for six months or more since the age of 18.

I asked this on twitter and they said it is fine. I even mentioned in my application that with accompanying I cannot be invited due to low CRS and wish to sponsor my wife once I settle in Canada with a good job. Let's see what visa officers say about this.

CRS is not the only reason people are choosing spouses to be non accompanying. Yes - there are issues with in land applicants who are applying as spouse non accompanying. Technically - how can you be non accompanying if you are located within the same country?

age 18 or last 10 years, whichever comes later.
