Hello friends,
Its been a while, I have been reading few threads related to 'Visitor visa for Spouse awaiting PR approval' and i am so frustrated. I personally don't understand why is this such a difficult task to get a visitor visa when PR is already applied and how can CIC expect married couple to stay apart for years while they keep the application in pending status. I mean there has to be some logical solution this is 2018.
Anyhow, even though few threads had an elaborate explanation on the success stories but it doesn't look like a green signal in our case.
My wife applied for PR under spouse visa category in March 2018. Initially our file moved swiftly and we got medical request, my sponsorship eligibility passed and file reached the 'background verification' stage which i am assuming is the last stage but now we are stuck there from last 4 months. My wife is in India by the way. I wish to apply a visitor visa for her but unfortunately she was laid off her job in March itself and then she was doing a certification from an institute. Currently, she does not have a job and we don't have any fixed assets in her name. We are a newly married couple and just want to live together. All the options that are suggested to prove ties to the home country (job, study, fixed assets, bank loan, etc) nothing works for my wife and to be honest, there is no tie expect all of her family is there which is a big reason at emotional level but not practically significant for cic. To all the experts in this group, do you think we have a chance here? Cant CIC give just a single entry visa since our PR will anyhow be decided by the time visitor visa duration ends? Is it really that big a deal? At the look of it, it seems visitor visa for a spouse awaiting PR is like the most challenging visa, everyone has written about this and it just doesn't make sense to me and I am thinking without having a job, its not even worth trying. Please share your experience and thoughts.
Thank you in advance.
