- 29/11/2010 Sponsorship approved, PR app sent to Singapore
I am Canadian and married to a Thai and currently in Thailand. Was about to file the application for sponsorship from abroad and wait here until she gets approved but thought it would be better to enter first and apply from within so I can start work and she can learn some English as well from a good university. I already researched about moving from a temporary status to a permanent status and this is no issue.
My only concern for the student visa (that I have heard stories off before as well) is with the requirement of "having to convince an officer that she will leave when the studies is over." It keeps saying this. I have heard that the Canadian embassy may reject her if she is married with a Canadian because they will think she will never come back. The only thing that confuses me is that there is the "dual intent" rule that dual intent cannot be ground to rejection, and that really there is no issue and nothing illegal about extending a visa or moving to permanent status. This doubt is troubling because if we get accepted into the university we will have to pay a non-fund able deposit for the semesters totaling nearly $1000. :O
I am worried about the "convince that you will leave upon finishing studies."
Any experience here?
