Hi,

I need some clarifications regarding my sponsor application for my wife.

Last month, i got married and presently i am in India.

My wife, she is still pursing her studies.

We have applied for our marriage certificate.

My question is that her last name and my last name is different.

If i change her last name in the passport, then the last name will differ in her educational certificates.

What name should be used in filling the applications ( last name before marriage or after marrige).

Also, please tell me, what is the total fees to sponsor the wife.

Pls help

Thanks

Goud

Fido.

Refer to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/applications/fc.html for fees and general guidelines

1) It does not make a difference if your wife applies under her maiden name, as long as you provide a marriage certificate

2) You are not supposed to provide educational certificates for sponsorship application.

Thanks for your reply freakoutguy,

I am little bit confused with teh fees particulars.

I have already gone through CIC website for the fees details, but confused.

Right of permanent residence - 490.00
Sponsorship application - 75.00
Permanent resident - family member 22 years old or older or is a spouse or common-law partner 550.00
Total Price($): 1115.00

Should i pay 550 also or only 490 + 75.00

I am just confused

Yoy have to pay 75 (Principal Sponsor) +550( Application Fees) + 490 (Right of Landing)

Thanks Freakout
