hi guys..i wish to know a couple of info.... If i am a PR and i wish to sponsor my wife and son what are the procedure? like after getting PR how long does it need to sponsor my wife and son? and what are the financial procedure to sponsor them? can somone explain me?
Sponsorship for wife and kid after getting PR ?
- Thread starter yrrej007
- Start date
no buddy..well i havent applied and intent to apply for PR..but due to lack of funds or POF i thought of taking them at a later stage to canada....but my doubt is if im nt planning to take them alomg with me when i get the PR , how do i process the PR application at the initial stage? like i just need to show the POF for just myself right? that is what i would like to clear.....
im sorry i dint get what u just said...can u explain it in detail? or can someone else clarify it better ?
my concern here is that as of right now i just have the POF for myself. I dont mind including my wife and kid in the initial application. But if i include them in the initial application then wont i hve to show their POF also within mine? Or can i just show my POF only ?

No - you can't just show POF for yourself.yrrej007 said:
You must show POF for your entire family. Even if they aren't accompanying you.
If you only have enough POF for yourself right now, then you don't qualify to apply.
How were you planning on applying anyway? Was someone else going to sponsor you? Were you going to get a work permit?
hi.i just want to clarify something.i landed canada and became a permanent resident with a single status but actually i'm married two weeks before i landed canada.can i sponsor my wife?or if im having aproblem about this matter,can you suggest me what to do so i can sponsor my wife as soon as possible?

Sorry to say, but if you landed without declaring your change of status from single to married, then your new wife is excluded from ever being sponsored by you in Family Class.janpacs said:

Yeah, I probably should have included that, but I didn't want to be the bearer of bad news all by myself.PMM said:

Ouch - you've made your life difficult. Had you waited until AFTER you had landed to get married there wouldn't be a problem, but because your status changed BEFORE you landed, you were obligated to tell them of your status change and have your new spouse evaluated.janpacs said:
See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/relatives-apply-how.asp:
To immigrate, your spouse will need to qualify independently of you in one of the eligible classes (which, in your case, does NOT include spousal sponsorship.) It's possible that you might be able to apply in Humanitarian and Compassionate class, but that's a very low probability approach.
I would suggest that you find a lawyer that is comfortable and familiar with this type of situation.
