hey guys (from India)
got admitted in Western University (applied for visa )

My questions are:

1 What kind of visa can in apply for my wife after i get there?
2 what are the chances of getting any visa approval for her?
3 what are the general requirements for the process?
4 Funds requirement?

She is in last year BSc(Nursing) no experience (hoping to apply after her degree completion)
Can she get open work permit from here or after arriving Canada

hi janmeet,


myself simranjeet, i am from ahmedabad , yes your wife can apply for open work permit after you go there, you need to send some of your documnets ,
i.e: sin nos, enrollment for, gic account details, college id, and the rent agreement or the residential proof of yours in canada.

then she may apply from india with certain documents for spouse open wok permit.

i am in the same situation as my wife is already in canada on student visa and i hv applied for spouse open work permit on 19th sept 2014 just hope to get a good news this coming week..........

and regarding funds it is not sure but minimum u will hv to show 10000 cad in your wife's account whether in terms of fd, liquid funds or lic's.........

hi guys,
i am sorry to inform you that majority of cases submitted after sept 2014 is found rejected.I am a student and my wife applied for her open work permit from india but got rejected for silly reasons.
1.purpose of visit- was clear in the cover letter
2.travel history - she have even visited foreign country
3.financial funds - i had shown 16000 CAD

Friends i dont know what criteria they are taking in, even lot of students from my college applied for the same and we all got the same result.REJECTION.
i think CIC is not promoting this anymore or the visa issuing officers have got certain instructions from CIC to not process such cases further.

one reason i see is funds seem low unless u have attached ur fee receipt....u need ur fees+$10000+$4000 min .......yes spousal visa r tougher....how long have u been married what marriage proof did u attach?

well i dont know problems with ur other buddies but i clearly see ur problem . Showing similar cases is not going to help ....try and get ur file right forget about who got what. Dont get discouraged because someone else also got rejected. ur problem is funds thats just one another is u r recently married try to add more proof of marriage like may be marriage photos etc something to show marriage is not just a convenience marriage and a genuine marriage..also add spouses credentials if the r good like degree , experience letters etc.....these r not required but its good to add them to make a profile strong
