Principal Applicant (Inland) Dependent (Outland) during COVID-19

[Canada Job aspire]

hi everyone, i am actively following the instagram and twitter page. i would love to share my story in video form but i am camera shy. hence, i have attached my story below: I know its long but its worth reading. @iravlad

My name is 'Tola , a 27 year old mother and wife who as not seen her family in 28 months and a total of 52 months from first entry date been December 3rd,2016. I have been separated from my first daughter ( currently 5 years old) for 4 years. I left her with her father at the age of 1 due to her visa denied and reason been “ not convinced she was going to leave at the end of her stay” .My husband as also been deprived of a father daughter relationship with our second child who as only spent a total of 3 months with her father since she was born in 2017 ( she will be 4 years old in May).

I submitted an express entry (CEC) application June 3rd 2020 and based on my recent gcms note and call to cic few days ago, there as been no movement on my application since October 15, 2020. I am part of the express entry category separated for years from immediate family. This delay in application processing as caused and still causing my family a lot of money and time in therapy just to keep sane. The distance is destroying me and as began to take a toll on my youngest daughter. She as developed difficulty in relating with people as she does not have any kid her age to relate with. Covid is a trying time for us all and how nice would it be if she had her sister here as a playmate.

I am currently battling depression and anxiety with no immediate nor extended family to help me get through it. Covid restricted my travel plan to visit my family in 2020 and after moving the plan to 2021, I was hit by the hotel quarantine rule of $2000 which I can not afford hence, another opportunity cut shut right in my eyes. My family is an integral part of my life. However, being physically away for so long as deprived me a chance to raise my first daughter and my husband a chance to be a father to our second daughter. The painful thing is we don’t know when this will end and seeing applications get processed in 2 months while someone like me is been told (by cic representative) all I need is for the officer in charge of my file to verify my biometrics so as to move the application to the next stage (security).

Please, kindly help me in whichever way you can. I just want to see my kids grow up together, be a mother to both of them and a wife to my young husband who also doesn’t deserve this. Please help me to reunite with my family.

Thank You

I can really connect every word of yours. Do not worry you will pass this through soon and get united with your family. Hoping for a light at the end of the tunnel soon.

Apply for SOWP and a travel authorization folks, that's the only way you can bring your spouse into the country. My spouse just arrived and we got an email from cic on Friday for our CoPR address confirmation.

We should be getting our CoPR soon

Can you pls let me know how you informed IRCC that your spouse is in Canada??

SWhat do we usually specify in purpose of visit

We briefed our relationship timeline in the purpose of visit which was long distance for a year. Further quote we intend to immigrate to Canada in long-term as permanent residents mentioning our PR application number.however due to covid not knowing when we will get our decision is causing psychological trauma and anxiety attacks with sleepless nights. With these things brief, requested for visitors visa for short stay in Canada as visitor for family reunion. Also mentioned my wife's job in India, that upon expiration of visitors status or the requested time for stay my wife will exit Canada to resume her employment in India.

Hi Sarvana,

I just wanna ask did you attach notarized sponsorship letter? As I am also planning to apply for my husband's TRV application.

Thank you in advance.

I just signed it by myself and dated it on epdf from my mobile.

thanks to everyone for the word of encouragement.
However, i am planning to try the TRV (family reunification). i feel at this point, that is the only option i have not explored. i know it could either be a yes or no response. But i need help with the following

1. is it advisable to apply for TRV for both spouse and daughter or SOWP and TRV?
2. for those that did apply and got approved, did you do another medical or submitted the one you used for PR application @sarvana92
3. Spouse medical expires june 2021
4. can i use just my financial statement as proof of funds instead of my spouse's bank statement?

 

[sarvana92]

for those that did apply and got approved, did you do another medical or submitted the one you used for PR application @sarvana92

If your PR medical certificate is with the validity period you can use the same one.

hello, if yo are seeing this and your work permit is yet to be approved and you are still within the 90days. i will advice you withdraw your work permit and reapply. add your dependents to your work permit application as accompany. they will grant them visa. the you need to only worry about travel authorization for them. and that one someone recently provided an hack to the travel authorization to get it approved which i am recently doing now.
