If they have reasons to believe that your relationship is genuine or if they have concerns about any of your documents submitted, then it's possible they will send you a procedural fairness email requesting for additional documents and/or request an interview for them to be satisfied before the PPR follows.
ok thats awesome

Random question, and I don't know if theres a thread for this...for us living in Canada, when filing taxes, you have to declare your spouse's income.
But since they don't live here, and are in the process of getting sponsored, do we declare the equivalent of their income, or put it at 0?
Last year while filing, I put a ballpark amount, but for this year I was thinking it may not be necessary to?

Yes you have to file with their income just choose the option that says they are a non-resident and convert their income into CAD dollars. SIN should be 000-000-000.

Hello every one.
My wife was refused visa on the grounds of marriage not genuine. I appealed the decision and was granted ADR on the 22nd of February 2018. At the ADR meeting, the minister's counsel said to me that she was satisfied that i have addressed the three reasons why they refused my wife visa, but she does not understand why the visa officer in Ghana did not interview my wife and did not give reason(s) of not doing so.
She said that they must hear from my wife and ask me some questions before deciding on the case and recommended full hearing. At the ADR she did not ask me a single question, only told me things to get right before the hearing date.
Is there anyone who has been in such a similar situation or been through full hearing? please i would require your assistance as i need to know the nature and type questions asked. Please respond i can provide my email or phone number if you are in a position to help. Thank you for your assistance will be highly appreciated in this matter.

Thank you
You are supposed to be able to show proof of whatever amount you insert as your husband's income also.

It can drastically affect the amount of get back on your taxes (it did for mine) and they can ask for proof before making the payment. It is different from an audit though - they just ask for it through email or mail.

Not trying to speak for everyone here but I think we are all waiting on our initial applications. There is a thread for people who were refused and they may have experiences to share.

I have a friend here whose spouse is in nigeria, every year she puts 0 for his income. And he's working.
Last year she put 10k as a ballpark amount, and this year she filed and put it at 0

The only thing is if they ever do an audit and your friend can't prove that her spouse earned $0, she could have to repay the amount she receives from CRA
