Could you be able to help me what documents are required exactly. I am asking coz after I filled the details in come to Canada tool. It does not give any information of documents required other than Passport, photos and marriage certificate.

Please help. Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi.
I applied December 2019 to sponsor my wife who’s currently working in Canada. We received an email of AOR last week. We’re just wondering if someone knows when she’ll get her open work permit after receiving the AOR.
Thanks!

Hi All,

Can someone please help and advise, I applied for an open work permit basis on my wife whose session is from January 2020 to December 2022 but unfortunately I got rejection this morning. And reason was "you provided insufficient information to demonstrate that your spouse is a full-time student in a qualifying program at a at DLI in Canada."

I submitted all documents regarding my spouse education in Canada like.

Wife's Documents:
Enrollment letter from the university with DLI number
Acceptance letter
SIN Number
UCID
BCID
GIC certificate
Student Permit
Visa stamp photo

My and Daughter's Documents:
Bank Statement
Employement Letter
marriage certificate
Daughter's passport with out names on it
property valuation letter worth 1 Cr in the name of my father
few more documents..

I dont know what else i need to submit. i cant relate the rejection reason with the information already provided. i also applied a tourist visa for my daughter which was rejected basis on she'll not leave Canada after her authorized stay.

Can someone please give some expert advice for the rejection reason.
many thanks in advance.
