question when immigration canada says they verified your information but, require further information to retrieve the file, they are basically saying that they have the application right?
Spousal sponsorship
- Thread starter Leon
- Start date
Do u mind telling me Abt the 8th October one too. Is it same like the previous announcement?
I don't usually comment in detail on the future .))
Zero chance from what I see in the announcement that there will be substantial change in visa requirement. It is about broadening definition of family somewhat and some very specific cases (serious illness etc).
My understanding is that mostly it is about broadening somewhat the exemptions (from entry prohibition) to a larger definition of 'family' - more parents, adult children, grandparnets, some siblings.
Most notable to spousal class forum is perhaps 'those in an exclusive dating relationship of more than one year.' (For a very limited number who have long relationships but not met common law test or married. There have been a few high-profile cases.
'Compassionate cases' - again, I expect will be for very limited compassionate cases such as serious illness ie hospitalization.
Language and specifics expected on the eighth but again, this looks limited to me:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2020/10/government-introduces-new-border-measures-to-protect-canadian-public-health-provides-update-on-travel-restrictions.html
- certain extended family members of Canadian citizens and Canadian permanent residents, including those in an exclusive dating relationship of at least 1 year and their dependent children, as well as adult children, grandchildren, siblings and grandparents
- Detailed information on who may qualify as an extended family member and the process and requirements to be eligible to travel to and enter Canada will be available on the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada website on October 8, 2020. There will be a robust process in place for extended family members, and each traveler will need to apply for and be issued an authorization before they can travel to Canada.
And as someone said they mean the extended family members and not immediate family members which means a wife/husband can bring in Parents, Grandparents, Siblings but not the husband/wife. I sincerely wish and pray that they reconsider the spousal cases. They can make the laws stricter rather and let go off this weird rule, ban the couple and send them back to home country with immediate effect if someone tries to dupe. This is a classic case of cheaters affecting the good clan.
Curious Question - Has anyone ever got TRV while the Outland Spousal Application was in process ?

I think they should until there is a reform. I think there should be reform to get people out if the sponsorship is not valid or rejected. https://www.cicnews.com/2020/09/canadians-call-for-faster-family-reunification-0915839.html#gs.i2ncmz

Hello , Good Morning all, I Hope to get your opinions
I have applied for an RP after getting selected by Quebec in 2018 and I am expected to get my RP in the a couple of month
After applying for RP, I got married on 2019 and I declared my wife as uncompanyed spouse, to be sponsored later after my arriva
My Question: (in the normal situation, and without taking into account the pandemic circumstances) - what is the chance for my wife to get a tourist visa without my file affecting her negatively (without mentioning my application) ? Knowing that she has all the requirements (stable work, strong bank statement, assets, good travel history ..
(So we can travel together, me : to confirm my permanent residence , and her : as a tourist)
