Begin with introducing yourself: name, age, qualification and experience.
(IF SPOUSE IS A STUDENT IN CANADA):-
Information about spouse name age qualification and the date of travel to Canada on a study permit. Mention the current status of your spouse that your spouse is a FULL TIME STUDENT in DLI. Mention the date when she began her studies. Mention that you are enclosing the documents like the ENROLLMENT LETTER from SPOUSE DLI stating spouse is ENROLLED in FULL TIME (GRADUATE )Study program.
Mention that spouse is away from you and both are depressed and you desire to stay along with spouse and work in Canada so that you support each other before you both come back to your home country.

Hope this will help many..... What I have mentioned in CAPITAL LETTERS is MOST IMPORTANT and the proof documents to be submitted for smooth processing

Hi thanks for this helpful information, another question, do we have to mention regarding or marriage in the same letter ? for example do we have to mention how long we have been married and regards to our life together etc in the same explanation letter ? or just uploading our pictures, wedding invitations etc without any specific explanation would suffice ?

Yes you should include proof of your relationship especially if you have recently been married. Time in person is especially important. SOWP can be refused by IRCC if there are concerns about your relationship because there are unfortunately people who commit immigration fraud by getting married to someone with a permit already and then apply for SOWP soon after.
