Hello,
I'm a canadian citizen(not living in canada) married to a US citizen, we are starting the process to immigrate to canada.
We printed out all the forms we need from the cic.ca website. We are trying to do this by ourselves, because we don't have all the money for lawyer+fees+moving expenses, etc.
We do not have any criminal records or health issues.
When we get to Canada I'm planning to work and study, and my wife is a Horticulturist with 19 years of experience in the field planning to work as well.
As right now we don't have the $13,000 CAD in our bank accounts to prove that we can support ourselves, can I still sponsor my wife?
Is it easier for us, if she gets a working permit and of course a job, and once we are in Canada start with the sponsorship process?
I'm unemployed at the moment and I really don't want to move without her.
Can somebody tell me what's my best option?
Thank you so much for your time
Deb
