Thanks for the hand of support. I sent an email through here. I don't know if you got it.

What kind of document can I request from my children's school in support of their SP application?

Thanks for your response.

Congratultions to you. I am very happy for you.

Regards applying with the whole family, I wish I did that, but as you would also understand, I was just been cautious. IRCC matter get as e be, u know.

Now I have to tackle SOP to explain why I now need my wife and 3 "munchkins" here with me.

@Profgordons , You go help me o..

Congrats again..

Profgordons:
It’s PPR!!!

Applied for Visit Visa alongside with my Spouse who was applying for Study Permit, and Visit Visa for our two Munchkins - May 15th 2022

My application was cancelled in June, IRCC requested I apply for SOWP instead and refunded the application fee - Submitted June 30th 2022

Spouse Study permit was approved August and she resumed September

Munchkins Visitor Visas were approved September 28th, I got medical request same day

PPR today, November 3rd, 2022

It’s been quite interesting and I’ll advise people always apply as a family on the old portal if they have the funds to support it!

Congratulations.

What was the consent letter for?

Dukealara:


My initial study permit validity did not cover my entire program because I defer and had a coop program. Similar documents for my study permit plus letter of intent showing why my spouse want to come to Canada and my children documents. Consent letter and letter of invitation.

Thanks for your input

Profgordons:


Of course one can change their mind but then that reason has to come up in your SOP because you had invariably used her as home tie.
Travel / Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by digits234: 7:07pm On Oct 31, 2022
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my many questions.

The duration of my study is two years. Regarding home ties, I only stated in my SOP that my wife would financially take care of the family until I returned and that my company would also provide a monthly stipend to support my family’s upkeep.
I mentioned my dad, mum, and my company in SOP. Also listed my two houses with documents.

Is it not okay for someone to change their mind regarding their family joining them after 3 months? Or do you think I should further wait?


Profgordons:


I’ll try to answer to the best of my knowledge which I’ll describe as common knowledge you can find here or on IRCC website if you search.

POF would be determined by your duration of stay and family size, on IRCC website it shows below:
Primary applicant - $10000
First Dependent - $4000
Then all next dependents - $3000 (in your case $3000*3 = $9000)
That brings you to minimum of $23,000 CAD per year!

2) Yes, you can use the same bank account as long as the funds suffice to cover the cost of your tuition for the remainder years and the cost of living as stated above

3) Your wife doesn’t need to, she’s a dependent! If she has to show, it is an added benefit.

4) Mentioning that a baby has just joined is not misrepresentation, you can always update your profile with the added bundle of joy, congratulations on the new born.

5) All required documentation will be listed when you start the application; there is no harm in starting the application to see what you need. Have the birth certificates of the kids, their international passport and digital photos handy. The other supporting documents will be similar to what you have already to show home ties.

6) Police report is not required, they perform their independent criminality check based on the data you submitted, you can add it just to satisfy yourself if you have gut feelings about it. Also yes I would always advice upfront medical, it saves time when required.

7) Yes you will need an SOP for your spouse, keep it concise and convincing.

cool You need a new GCKey for SOWP application, no other way!

Having stated the above, a few questions that would come to mind are?

How long is the duration of your course? If less than two years, then it will be a challenge for the VO to approve such SOWP.

Did you use your family as home ties during your SP application? If you did then this could be more complicated than you think and that is where misrepresentation comes in, you would first need to untie them from your home before progressing.

Good luck with IRCC!

Hey guys, I'm glad to be back here this time needing answers.

Please I need some answers and guide here from the Gurus and any person(s) with knowledge about my queries.

I applied for SP (Without my then pregnant wife and two kids) and got approved. Four days later, our baby came. In my application or SOP, I never mentioned that my wife was pregnant.

Now, I plan to apply for SOWP for my wife and SP for my two kids + the baby, in December/January as I've been in Canada for a month now. My questions are;

1) How much POF is required
2) Can I show the POF from the same bank account I used for my SP application?
3) Does my wife need to show a substantial amount in her bank account? or just any amount would do?
4) Can not mentioning about expecting a baby be interpreted as misrepresentation?
5) What documents do we need for this application?
6) Do they need upfront medicals and/or Police Character Cert?
7) Do I need to write another SOP, or this time my wife?
cool Would I need to apply from my portal (New IRCC portal) for them? Or Open a new GCKey account for them?

I understand these are alot of questions, but any advice regarding this situation would be appreciated.

Thanks so much guys.

Being a director in my company and my course “Criminology” is to further studies on same Job i currently hold a position as the “Security Director” and will be one of the heads upon return. Everything was written and addressed with documents to back it up from the Admins office. My dear, i can only say i did my best. The only thing i didn’t do was to attach my head and DNA

Sorry to hear about your refusal. I'm treading lightly, so I'm not misunderstood.

Depending on the DLI, tuition amount, perceived lifestyle (SOP), the VO may at his/her discretion, consider if available funds (Liquid) would cover the ENTIRE cost of study.

Now question is, would 15m cover it?

CharitoJames:


It’s non of the above… Financial status and personal assets can NEVER be the ish. I don’t have ties in Canada

Then eligibility review started 1st of September yay!
After that, I kept logging in every day until last week I just decided to check my submitted documents and noticed that the client information section had a deadline of 3rd of October. I quickly drafted a letter of explanation with the help of my uncle and my parents �
and I submitted it via webforms and to 4 Nairobi visa office email addresses.
The status of the client information is still showing 'Not provided'
Finally yesterday, PPR while I was in online class.

Documents submitted

Let me start by appreciating everybody here.

This is my 3rd application. Actually, I did not know today is my day of testimony or this application will be approved. I even started my master's in Nigeria already because I have lost every hope after 2 denials.

School: University of Canada West
Course: Master of Business Administration

Documents Submitted

1. admission letter
2. tuition receipt
4. my family picture
5. my picture in usa, uk, finland, and south africa
6. my passport and visa stamp pages
7. statment of purpose and letter of explanation detailing what has changed, which was written perfectly written by @Sopwriter
8. my father's company cac
9. his personal soa (both savings and current)
10. company 1 soa
11. company 2 soa
12. Introduction letter from one my father's company saying I have been working for the family business since I competed my bsc
13. my awards and certificates
14. my cv
15. my police cert

Let me add this, I did not submit my soa bcuz it is just school fee and upkeep allowance from my father that enters it so there is nothing hefty in my account so I was told not to submit it

I dedicate this approval to God almighty and my family. Appreciation also goes to @Sopwriter. This man really helped me with advices. He called me with his airtime and guided me from A to Z.

To other hopefuls, please don't give up because that last try may be where the testimony is. I started my master's in Nigeria already and today I am rejoicing

May other hopefuls testify.

So sorry I am sending it late.

First time Application: Feb. 20, 2022
Refusal : May 30th, 2022
Based on Personal Asset and Financial status

I was dazed when I received this hot breakfast but I had earlier applied for my GCMS notes and it came in July.
Quickly contacted Makano, the instrument God used for me, he did not disappoint. He had time for my questions, would not give me space to relent when I felt like giving up.
I had lump sums and no documentation to back it up fortunately, Makano noticed I could use my statement since the large amount were from my employer and was stated there.
Makano did a good job on the LOE and SOP, afterwards I applied.

2nd Application: July 30, 2022
Eligibility has not started till now and background check still ongoing.
12th September 2022 - PPR

Here is our Timeline:

Medicals passed for my daughter 27th July, 2022.
Ordered GCMS notes 19th July, 2022.
Recieved GCMS notes 23rd August, 2022.
Eligibility for my husband and daughter started on the 25th of August, 2022.

PPR for my daughter - 6/9/2022.
BVL for me - 6/9/2022.
PPR for me - 10/9/2022.
BVL and PPR for my husband -12/9/2022

In total we had seven (7) ghost updates.

After about a month of submitting our application, I realized that I uploaded IMM1294 in place of IMM5645. I printed the form and sent it as an email and webform. I later saw this information in my GCMS notes.

To everyone waiting for PPR, keep up the faith. Your PPR will come and Canada will favour us all.
