question regarding sponsorship application documents

[vanwilder]

hello friends,

I am working on filling sponsorship application forms to sponsor my wife. My question is do i need to include all the educational certificates of my wife? and does it also have to be notarized?
can u please let me know. Thank you!

There is no requirement to include education certificates / diplomas.

If you are using those as proof for your wife's employment intentions, then by all means, include them...otherwise, kind of pointless unless you link them with something to do with her future plans for employment in Canada.

What visa office are you going through? Different countries have different requirements for proofs/documents. Some countries need educational proof but others don't. Please double check your country guideline and it normally specifies what documents are required for the sponsor and what are for the applicant.

Thank you! I am using buffalo as a visa office. I am also thinking I dont need to include my wife's educational certificate but my immigration consultant is asking for it. I dont see anywhere on the document checklist where it ask for educational documents.
