   Spouse Visa Cover Letter

I am writing to emphasize my acute need and desire for my wife to join me in this country.

We met online and hit it off to such a degree that we soon made plans to connect in person. Our time together confirmed that we are each other's soulmate. I proposed in front of the Eiffel Tower on Valentine's Day. She is the love of my life, and the lack of a spouse visa is keeping us from being together.

I have already secured lodging in this country, and we hope to start a family soon. We have been traveling to meet at great personal expense for quite some time, and yet our love endures.

My spouse meets all the financial requirements for the visa and is extremely employable due to degrees in law and engineering.

I've enclosed the needed documentation and look forward to hearing good news.

IR1 / CR1 Spouse Visa Step-by-Step Guide on Filing an I-130 for a US Spouse Visa

What is a IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa? IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visas are immigrant visas issued to foreign spouses of US Citizens. After the US citizen spouse files (and has approved) the proper petition with the USCIS, the foreign spouse will complete the visa process completely outside the US. Upon approval and once issued, the foreign spouse may enter the US with their visa and pass through the arrival Port of Entry, where they will become a Permanent Resident immediately. They will receive a Permanent Resident Card (Green Card) in the mail at their US Address within a few weeks. Note to K3 Applicants:   This process also applies to K3 Visa applicants whom have had their I-130 approved prior to their I-129f. In this case you may chose to persue the I-130 path as opposed the the K3. This will allow the immigrating relative to enter as a permanent resident as opposed to having to file for adjustment once here. If the I-129f is later approved and forwarded to the embassy then you can write them to request the approved I-130 be acted on and the K-3 process abandoned. Who is Eligible to File? U.S. citizens legally married to a foreign national may petition for a IR-1 / CR-1 visa. If the marriage is less than two years old, the consulate will issue a CR-1 Visa (and if longer than two years it will issue a IR-1 Visa). The primary difference between these two visas is that a CR-1 Visa will result in Conditional Permanent Residency (requiring a   petition to be filed later to lift this conditional status ) versus a IR-1 Visa resulting in full Permanent Residency upon arrival in the US by the foreign spouse. Forms Needed to File for a IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa: 1.   I-130 2.   I-130A 3.   G-1145   (optional) The above forms can be filled out on your computer and printed. Make sure you sign and date them as required. Anything you cannot fit by typing, you can handwrite (very neatly) in black ink in the blank instead. You should always verify the current forms at   www.uscis.gov . Assembling the I-130 Package: Checklist Forms and Documents (follow   these   assembly instructions. All supporting documents must be in English or be   translated   as noted   here .) :

Attach "E-Notification" Form (Optional) Clip a completed G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance, to the first page of your application (on top of the cover page). By completing this form and attaching it, USCIS will send you an email and/or text message to alert you when your application was received.  

Mail the I-130 Package to the USCIS You should mail the completed form(s) to the proper   USCIS address here   (Note the location & PO Box address for your filing type:   stand alone ). Mail the package with return receipt requested / delivery confirmation. Send via USPS.

IMPORTANT! Make   TWO   copies of the entire package before you send it in. This includes the money orders too. You want to have a perfect replica of the package you are sending in. All Forms that you submit must be originals with original signatures. Supporting Evidence that you submit may be photocopies. Retain   ALL   original supporting Evidence since the USCIS has the right to check them by issuing an RFE ( Request For Evidence ). If you receive an RFE , follow the direction exactly, and make two copies of what you sent back. During any future interviews the USCIS may also want to examine the original supporting evidence.

Create a VJ Timeline

What Happens After You Mail the I-130 Out? A few weeks after you have sent your petition to the USCIS you will receive a Notice of Action (aka NOA ) letter indicating that they have begun processing your I-130 application. You can check the status of your application as well as other processing time information   here .

When your I-130 petition is finally approved, the service center that processed your petition, will send you another Notice of Action letter indicating your approval, and the forwarding of your approved petition to the   National Visa Center   ( NVC ) in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, along with a phone number to contact the NVC with. Your case will now only be dealt with by the NVC . The service center that you filed with, will have no more knowledge on the status of your petition or case.

A few weeks after you have received your last Notice of Action indicating the approval and forwarding of your I-130 application to the NVC , the NVC will send your relative a packet of forms that you and your relative must fill out before your relative can be given an interview date with a consulate abroad. The packet will likely contain instructions to fill out the DS-261 and DS-260 online forms, by the intending immigrant. An   I-864   form is also included that must be filled out by the petitioner (living in the US). The I-864 is the Affidavit of Support form that requires copies of the petitioners past 3 U.S tax returns (or   tax transcripts   which are free from the IRS) as well as any bank or financial records available (see the I-864 for exact requirements based on your case). The petitioner must make at least 125% above the   U.S federal poverty   to indicate to the U.S government that the intending immigrant will not become a federal charge to the government when he/she arrives in the U.S.. If the petitioner cannot meet these requirements, then he/she must still file an I-864, and find a joint sponsor who can meet the requirements on his/her own. When a joint sponsor is needed ,proof of their U.S citizenship or permanent residency is required. (i.e. copy of birth certificate, immigration status etc). The joint sponsor must be residing in the U.S, and he/she must also submit his/her past 3 years U.S tax returns along with bank or any other financial records available. The joint sponsor must submit his/her own I-864 form to accompany the petitioner's I-864 form.

Forms that may be either sent back (or requested to be gathered and kept for the interview) to the NVC or the consulate abroad (depending upon which consulate you are going through) before an interview date with a consulate abroad can be scheduled are as follows:

Pre-Interview Forms / Items:

After the NVC or Consulate Abroad receives the above forms and supporting documents (which may not all be required to mail back at that time), an interview date will be scheduled for the intending immigrant at a consulate abroad. The NVC or the consulate abroad will send your relative a letter indicating at what time and day the interview is scheduled for, and of required forms that must be brought to the interview. Make two copies of each original document or piece of evidence below and bring them with you. Documents needed are:

Interview Forms / Items:

On The day of your relatives (or spouses) interview, he/she must bring EVERY document listed above that applies to your case, and should be prepared for a long wait. There may be additional forms required. The interview appointment sheet will contain a list of everything you must bring. It will also tell you the payment amount due and the forms of payment accepted.

The interview can last for as littles as 10 minutes or up to an hour depending upon your specific case. You relative will take an oath under US law to tell the truth, and it is very important that your relative answer every question as truthfully as possible. In general, it is a good idea that your relative bring documentation to prove strong ties and a relationship with you, the petitioner. (i.e. phone bills, letters etc.) If the consulate officer approves your relative's immigrant visa application, your relative will be issued an immigrant visa that allows your relative to become a US permanent resident. Your relative will become a U.S permanent resident only when he/she enters the U.S at a port of entry, until this time, he/she only has an immigrant visa that is valid up to 6 months from the interview date. If your relative cannot immigrate to the U.S within the 6 month allotted time, then his/her immigrant visa will expire, and the I-130 process must start all over again. At the bottom of either a CR-1 Spouse Visa or IR-1 Spouse Visa is the following sentence, "Upon Endorsement Serves As Temporary I-551 Valid For One Year." The endorsement is a standard CBP admission stamp with applicable information written in by the officer. This allows the visa itself to act as a temporary green card before the actual green card arrives in the mail. Additionally, if your relative is a CR-1 visa holder, the green card will only be valid for two years. Within ninety days before the green card expires, you will have to file an I-751 form to   remove it's conditional status .

As a general note, please see the I-130 FAQs   here .

So my wife and I did the spousal visa . She’s in the states now but with that being said we’re still waiting for her physical green card and her social security to come through.   Do we have to follow through social security regarding about getting one or will the process it just like how we stated on the form of the application?

sorry if this is in the wrong form

Hello everyone.

My name is Iryna. I am a Ukrainian citizen and going through the process of spouse visa CR1.

Filing all form I got really confused in some part. If someone went through this, I would really appreciate any of your advice!

Here are my questions about form I-130:

1. It is Part 4 Item number 53 - Was the Beneficiary EVER in immigration proceedings? - Does it apply only to the US immigration proceedings or it also applies to other countries as well? For example, I lived in Russia and went though the temporarily residence permit. Does it apply Russian? Thank you for your ideas.

2. What should I write in: "Date Marriage Ended" line if it is not ended and it is my current marriage with the US citizen?

Here are my questions about form I-130A:

1. I got confused with Part 3 page 3: "Information about your employment outside the USA" - I dont understand what exactly should be provided here if all of my jobs where outside the US? Because the Employment History was already provided in Part 2. 

Thank all of you in advance and I wish good luck to those who are still in the process!

Although he will get his apartment once i am settled in. Can someone help me out??

My Case is documentarily qualified (family visa) and in line for interview using my petitioner (Spouse) and my joint sponsor documents. Now, my joint sponsor is refused to give me his updated documents and I want to change him. My question is-

1. Is that possible to change my joint sponsor at this stage?

2. what are the prons and cons of the removal of this joint sponsor?

3. Does changing the joint sponsor affect my visa journey?

I thank you so much.

Posted October 10, 2022

Bubu I'm not sure but I would think since u are in line for the interview just take all the correct documentation of the new joint sponsor to the interview and pray. Once your at the interview they are probably gonna ask for the joint sponsor info anyway. I hope this helps.

Can these documents be submitted online instead of being mailed?

Posted April 15

I'm curious why this guide says you have to mail in the I-130 forms and doesn't mention that they can be filed online. The USCIS website says you can file online and encourages it.  https://www.uscis.gov/i-130

How To Write a Cover Letter for Form I-129F (Petition for Alien Fiancé)

To prepare a K-1 fiancé(e) visa application for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), you must complete the required forms, gather supporting documents, and pay fees. It’s not mandatory to include a cover letter in your application packet, but doing so can help keep your application materials organized and make sure you don’t miss any required documents. You can also use the cover letter to highlight anything you want USCIS to know about your visa application. This article explains what a K-1 fiancé visa cover letter is and the elements it should include. There’s also a template you can use to write your own.

Written by Jonathan Petts .  Updated May 17, 2023

What Is a Form I-129F Cover Letter?

You’ll need to file Form I-129F : Petition for Alien Fiancé if you are a U.S. citizen who wants your foreign partner to receive a K-1 visa . Though it’s not required, writing a cover letter to supplement this form can be helpful for USCIS. A cover letter is a document that outlines your application contents and addresses any unusual circumstances you’d like to flag for your application readers.

A cover letter can give your USCIS officer a useful overview of you and your partner’s case. You can also use your cover letter as a personal checklist to make sure you’ve included all necessary documents in your package.

Is a Cover Letter Required for My Form I-129F Application?

USCIS does not require a cover letter for your Form I-129F petition package. However, it’s often beneficial for applicants to include cover letters. A cover letter can help your USCIS officer better understand and evaluate your overall application.

If there is anything unclear about you and your foreign fiancé’s relationship, a cover letter gives you the opportunity to address these concerns upfront. Remember that USCIS only wants to distribute K-1 visas to couples in genuine relationships. If there is anything unusual about how your relationship started or progressed, you may wish to address it with a disclaimer in your cover letter. 

If you call attention to any unusual circumstances in your cover letter, you’ll be able to explain your side of the story in greater detail. By giving USCIS greater clarity on your case, you can make it easier for the USCIS officer to process your application.

What Should My K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa Cover Letter Include?

You should begin your Form I-129F cover letter with a heading and greeting. Your heading should provide USCIS officials with your mailing address, your name, and your foreign partner’s name. Your introduction should then explain your reasons for writing this cover letter. Use your introduction to give USCIS a basic overview of your relationship and tell them you are seeking a K-1 visa for your fiancé.

Checklist of Information To Include in Your K-1 Fiancé Visa Cover Letter

USCIS will find it most helpful if you include the following information in your cover letter:

Your contact information

The USCIS address to which you’re sending this letter

Your full name as the petitioner

Your fiancé’s full name as the beneficiary

A note stating which form and visa you are filing an application for

A list of all the supporting documents you’ve included in your package, in bullet points:

You must include evidence of your U.S. citizenship, such as your birth certificate , copy of your naturalization certificate, Form FS-240, an unexpired U.S. passport, or an original statement from a U.S. consular officer verifying that you are a citizen with a valid passport.

You’ll also need evidence that you and your fiancé have legally terminated any previous marriages. For example, you may need to include divorce decrees , annulment orders, or a former spouse’s death certificate.

You’ll need one color passport-style photograph of yourself.

You’ll also need one color passport-style photograph of your fiancé taken within 30 days of filing.

If you or your fiancé have ever changed your name, you’ll need to provide evidence of this legal name change.

You’ll need evidence that you and your fiancé intend to marry within 90 days of their admission into the United States.

Finally, you’ll also need evidence that you and your fiancé have met in person within two years of filing for this visa. Alternatively, you may submit evidence that an in-person meeting would cause extreme hardship or violate strict traditions of your fiancé’s foreign culture.

Your signature and the date

Lastly, you should thank USCIS for their time and conclude your letter. Remember that this cover letter should be the first part of your application package that USCIS sees. You should place it at the top of your overall package before mailing it out to the appropriate USCIS office.

Where To Send Your Form 1-129F Application & Cover Letter

Note that USCIS processes Form I-129F at its Dallas lockbox, so you should mail your application to the address below that corresponds with your chosen mailing method:

U.S. Postal Service (USPS)

Attn: I-129F

P.O. Box 660151

Dallas, TX 75266-0151

FedEx, UPS, and DHL

Attn: I-129F (Box 660151)

2501 South State Highway 121 Business

Lewisville, TX 75067-8003

Note that there is a $535 fee to file Form I-129F. You may pay this fee with a money order, personal check, or cashier’s check. You should make any checks payable to the “U.S. Department of Homeland Security.” When filing at a USCIS lockbox, you also have the option to pay by credit card. To pay with a credit card, you’ll need to file Form G-1450 : Authorization for Credit Card Transactions.

Form I-129F Cover Letter Template

You may use the following template for guidance when writing your USCIS Form I-129F cover letter. However, be sure to edit each field to reflect your own situation. You should replace each [bracketed field] with personalized information. To access an editable version of the Form I-129F cover letter sample below, you may make a copy of this sample USCIS cover letter .

Your foreign partner will be known as the “beneficiary” in this visa petition. You, the U.S. citizen sponsoring your foreign partner, are the “petitioner.” Note that you must be a U.S. citizen to sponsor your foreign partner’s K-1 visa application. U.S. green card holders cannot apply for K-1 visas for their foreign partners.

Tips for Writing Your K-1 Fiancé Visa Cover Letter

Be sure to write your letter clearly and concisely. Remember that your cover letter is only a summary of your application contents, so you won’t need to write too many details in this letter. You should also use bullet points when listing your included application materials. Using bullet points will help your USCIS officer more easily understand your application throughout the visa process.

Within your letter, you’ll want to mention that the documents you’ve provided throughout your package are accurate and unaltered original documents or photocopies. If you’ve included any certified translations in your package, be sure to mention this too.

SAMPLE COVER LETTERS for VISA APPLICATION: Korea, Schengen, Australia

SAMPLE COVER LETTERS for VISA APPLICATION: Korea, Schengen, Australia

By continuing to read this article, you agree to double check with the authorities or other concerned entities for the latest updates.

Employment certificate, financial documents, and income tax return (ITR) are the staples of most visa applications. But there is one document that is usually overlooked — the cover letter.

A cover letter isn’t always a requirement when applying for a visa. However, it’s something that we often recommend to add to your pile of documents, especially if there is no interview and you have some explaining to do.

You see, sometimes, things don’t always fit the mold perfectly. There are cases wherein you can’t provide the exact document needed, but you have a very good alternative. Or maybe you just can’t provide something at all, but you have a perfectly valid reason. Or perhaps you’re traveling with a group or for a special purpose. These instances could probably benefit from a well-crafted explanation to give the visa officer a clearer picture of your situation.

When I apply for a visa, I usually submit a cover letter regardless of whether or not it’s one of the requirements. I always want to give a summary of my application and clarify some aspects that may be prone to misinterpretation.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

What should be in a cover letter?

For me, a good cover letter must be able to provide the following:

  • A short introduction about yourself.
  • Your travel dates and the purpose of your trip
  • If traveling with a group: your companions and your relationship with them
  • If sponsored: your sponsor’s name, your relationship with them, and the reason why they are willing to sponsor you
  • If you’re missing some requirements: the reason why you won’t be able to provide them and the alternatives you are submitting instead
  • If applying for a double entry or multiple entry visa: the reason why you need to be allowed more than one entry
  • A quick rundown of the destinations you will be visiting
  • A quick summary of your travel history (if any), highlighting that you have NEVER violated visa rules in the past
  • A promise to return to your home country in time

Looks like a lot, huh? But here’s the thing: According to a couple of friends who used to work as visa officers at strict embassies, they usually had very little time to assess each application. Hence, if you’re going to make a cover letter, go straight to the point . One page should be enough. The key is being concise — finding the balance between giving enough information and keeping it short and sweet.

Here are some samples. I intentionally used complicated situations to give you an idea how I usually explain them. If they don’t apply to you, feel free to modify these to match your case. Please use this only as a model for your own cover letter. Please do not copy-paste the whole thing without adjustments.

Hello, I will be applying for a Japan visa and will submit a cover letter din. I have a few questions:

  • If I am traveling with friends pero we will be submitting individual applications, do I need to include that in the cover letter na I am with them on this trip?
  • Do you need to submit all your savings account o kahit isa nalang?
  • Plan ko rin sana (dahil nabasa ko sa ibang posts nyo hehe) na payroll and savings account ipasa, pero kung nililipat ko rin naman yung laman ng payroll sa savings, need ko pa ba isubmit yung payroll account?
  • Sa ibang Japan visa application na napanuod ko, nagsusubmit sila ng bank certificate at bank statement. Do I need to do that?
  • If yes, need ko ba explain sa cover letter ko na tinatransfer ko sa digital bank muna yung pera saka ko tinatransfer sa savings account? (kasi baka makita, if may bank statement, na nanggaling sa ganitong account yung pumasok na pera)

sorry habang nagtatype ako nadadagdagan questions ko haha. sana masagot parin. Thank you sa travel guides. Super helpful. :)

This is for Japan ha.

1. You may indicate your companions. Ako I prefer na imention sila to show na travel with friends talaga.

2. OK lang kahit isa lang kung sa tingin mo strong enough ung account na yun. Pwede ring madami if feeling mo di enough ung isa lang.

3. Naeempty ba ung payroll account when u transfer?

4. Bank cert lang naman ang need ng Japan so kahit walang statement, ok lang.

5. If hindi ka magsusubmit ng statement, di na need iexplain kasi hindi lalabas. :)

I plan to visit Canada and have started my visa application. I selected visit friend for purpose instead of tourism as I would like to be fully honest with my application. My very purpose is to be with my boyfriend and meet his family and friends. Touring comes as a bonus. Would it be fine to add captions or narrations on the pdf document together with our pictures as proof? I also have our hotel and tour bookings and his boarding passes on the two times that he has visited me here in PH. This is the Proof of Relationship section on the application visa.

visa cover letter for spouse

Table of Contents

Key takeaways.

  • A Spousal Sponsorship Letter is a key document that immigration officers use to determine if your relationship with the spouse/partner you’re sponsoring is authentic and therefore legitimate.
  • The facts in your Spousal Sponsorship Letter have to match up with the facts in all your supporting documents. Date, locations, names, events – they all should concide with any other supporting document that immigration officials review. The tone should not be exaggerated but should include a few strong phrases about the couple’s commitment to each other.
  • The sponsor
  • Other family members
  • There can be more than one Spousal Sponsorship Letter – for example, the sponsor can write one and a family member can write another letter. The letters have to coincide on the facts of the relationship, however.
  • your relationship is genuine
  • your marriage is genuine
  • your wedding was geniune and not staged
  • Shorter relationships with less family involvement and no children are seen as weaker relationships by immigration officials and require a strong spousal letter.
  • Longer relationships, with a legal marriage, lots of family interaction and children tend to be viewed as stronger relationships by officials and don’t require quite as strong a letter.
  • Give the personal details of the sponsor and the sponsored spouse/partner.
  • State where you’re applying from: inland (inside Canada) or outland (outside Canada).
  • List any problematic issues and clearly state your intention to solve them.
  • Describe how you met and how the relationship evolved.
  • Describe the wedding.
  • Describe your plans for settling and living in Canada – including work or study plans.

Is a Spousal Sponsorship Letter important?

IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) wants to know that you and your spouse have a genuine relationship . A marriage of convenience or a forced marriage is precisely what immigration authorities in Canada are on the lookout for.

You have to prove that your marriage is not one of convenience, and has been entered into willingly by both you and your spouse. That means a lot of documentation must be assembled in order to make your case to the authorities.

Do you feel that a Spousal Sponsorship Letter is a fairly straightforward part of your application where you or other family members lay out the basics of your sponsorship of a spouse or partner?

Think again .

A Relationship Letter of Support is a key document that immigration officials use to try and evaluate whether you and your spouse or partner have a genuine relationship. Whether it’s called a Proof of Relationship Letter , a Letter of Support for Immigration Through Spousal Sponsorship , or a Spousal Sponsorship Letter , it is in fact an effective way of showing Canadian immigration officials that you and your spouse are the real thing .

When you file an IRCC Spousal Sponsorship application , IRCC will be combing through your supporting documents and looking for any clues that your relationship is not well-supported and of dubious authenticity. A good proof of relationship letter has to provide both the facts and the tone that suggest your spouse and you have a genuine relationship , one that is hopefully recognized by members of both your families . Otherwise alarm bells start going off and your application could be in trouble.

Now , the relationship letter can be written by you the sponsor, or it can be written by family members who provide confirmation of your relationship.

You can even include more than one – say one written by you the sponsor and another written by a family member – as long as you review both support letters to ensure the facts in the two letters are consistent and supportive of the events in your relationship .

So, you’d better get your Relationship Support Letter right. Let’s start with a few definitions.

If you want to sleep well at night knowing you did everything possible to ensure a quick and easy processing of your application , consider using Immigroup’s Sponsorship Review Service. It’s an effective way of getting someone with lots of experience in your corner.

Do you want to boost your odds that your sponsorship application will succeed? Then, you need to put together an application that looks perfect!

Key Terms to Remember When Writing Your Spousal Sponsorship Letter

  • Sponsor : The Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident of Canada who is sponsoring their foreign-born spouse or partner.
  • Principal Applicant : The spouse or partner being sponsored .
  • Family members : The applicant’s closest relatives – spouse or common-law partner, dependent children, and their dependent children.
  • Spouse : The person the sponsor is legally married to, according to the law of the country they were married in.
  • Common-law partner : Someone the sponsor has shared a conjugal relationship with for at least 1 year, but has yet to marry.
  • Conjugal partner : A person living outside Canada who has been in a conjugal relationship with the sponsor for at least 1 year but who cannot live with the sponsor as a couple or marry due to religious, cultural, or other legal restrictions.
  • Are under 22 years of age
  • Do not have a spouse or common-law partner
  • They have depended financially on their parents since before the age of 22
  • They have an emotional or physical condition that means they cannot financially support themselves
  • Dependent Child of a dependent child: Children of the dependent children of the sponsor or principal applicant.
  • Accompanying Dependant : Any dependent child or grandchild who plans to immigrate to Canada with the principal applicant.
  • Non-Accompanying Dependent : Dependent children who will not be coming to Canada with the principal applicant.
  • Annulled Marriage : A marriage legally declared invalid.
  • Divorced : When you are no longer married because a court has legally declared the end of your marriage.
  • Legally Separated : When you are still married but no longer legally living with your spouse and you do not have any plans to live again with your spouse. (You cannot sponsor someone if you or your spouse is still separated from a previous partner.)
  • Married : You and your spouse have undergone a legally binding ceremony such that your marriage is legally recognized both in the country where it took place and in Canada.
  • Single : You have never been married and are not in a common-law relationship .
  • Widowed : Your spouse has died, and you have not re-married nor entered into a common-law relationship.
  • Principal Applicant : The spouse or partner being sponsored.
  • Dependent Children : Children of the sponsor or principal applicant who:
  • If 22 years or older they can be dependent children if:
  • They have an emotional or physical condition that means they cannot financially support themselves.
  • Dependent Child of a dependent child : Children of the dependent children of the sponsor or principal applicant.
  • Single : You have never been married and are not in a common-law relationship.

Keep these terms in mind when putting together your relationship letter(s) of support. IRCC wants to know as precisely as possible the nature of your relationship and your sponsored spouse and their situation in their home country – including family members, especially those who might wish to come to Canada at a later date.

But again, your support letter is really about showing officials that :

  • Your relationship is genuine
  • Your marriage is genuine
  • Your wedding ceremony was genuine and hopefully well-attended by family and friends

This is especially true if the supporting evidence is somewhat weak . What do we mean by this? Consider the following:

If your relationship is genuine but, for various reasons, you had a poorly-attended wedding and little family involvement in a relationship that has lasted a relatively short time, your Relationship Letter of Spousal Support will be even more important in convincing Canadian immigration authorities of the authenticity of your relationship with your sponsored spouse .

And of course, you always need to avoid making those key mistakes that will often result in delays or even outright rejection of your sponsorship application .

In this case, you should strongly consider getting a close family member to write a letter of support to provide immigration officials with evidence that family members are aware of and approve (hopefully) of the relationship. It can be emotional, but it also has to be factually accurate . It can be in addition to a relationship letter you the sponsor also write.

Tip: We also have a Spousla Sponsorship Support Letters From Friends and Family

Regardless of who writes it, your spousal sponsorship letter should include the following :

  • Name, date of birth of Sponsor
  • Name, date of birth of Principal Applicant (Sponsored Spouse)
  • Names, dates of birth, ages of any dependent children (Dependents)
  • Immigration Class you are applying under (Family Class).
  • Inside Canada – Inland
  • Outside Canada – Outland.
  • WHY – Any issues/problems that might be flagged by IRCC should be listed with the promise you would like to deal with them as soon as possible. Do not try to hide problematic details about admissibility . IRCC will likely find out anyway. As well, remember to include helpful details in your sponsorship application, like those we mention here .
  • HOW – Describe in detail how you met and how the relationship evolved . Names, dates, places are all important. Be brief but include all the transition points in the relationship. When you first met. When you began to co-habit. When you decided to get married. When you had a child (if applicable).
  • WHAT – What was the Wedding like? Describe it in detail with dates and people who attended and the wedding party afterwards. If there was no Honeymoon give a good reason why. Lack of funds? Conflicting work schedules?
  • WHAT – What are your plans for settling together and living in Canada? This only applies when both the Canadian (or permanent resident) and the sponsored spouse are living outside Canada and are applying to come to Canada under Family Class Spousal Sponsorship. You have to convince immigration officials you will indeed settle and live together in Canada . You should include basic details about where you plan to live and where you will stay when you first arrive, as well your medical insurance, you will need until you get accepted in a provincial healthcare plan.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Just cover these points briefly . You are writing a spousal sponsorship letter, so you only have to show you have thought about how you and your sponsored spouse will settle in Canada.
  • If you are not the sponsor, then these last points do not need to be covered in your letter of relationship support . In that case you the sponsor should write your own letter of support where you do cover your plans to settle together in Canada. Remember, honest and accurate details in your spousal support letter are what will help convince immigration authorities that your relationship is genuine.

Check out our outline for writing a support letter below for more details .

  • If you are not the sponsor writing the letter what is your relationship to the couple? Family? friend? How long have you known them? How did you meet?
  • Do you care about their relationship? Does it matter to you? As we mentioned above, show some emotion, but be factual. Give a sense of how the couple relate and live their lives together.
  • Your contact information so immigration officials can get in touch if they need to.

Letter of spousal support – outline.

Here’s an outline of how to structure a Letter of Relationship Support , in case you aren’t familiar with Canadian norms, or letter writing is not something you have much experience with.

First of all, you need to list the people involved (just like characters in a stage play) as well as what class you are sponsoring under Family Class Program . 

Name of Sponsor, Applicant, Dependents, Dependents Children (if any)

Date of Birth of all the above

Citizenship of all the above and where each currently live (location)

Class you are sponsoring under (Family in this case)

Next, you need to outline the basic story of how you met your spouse:

Where did you meet?

When did you meet?

How did you meet?

Give dates and locations and even time of day if possible.

Then you have to explain how the relationship evolved:

When did you begin to cohabit?

What important events occurred while cohabiting?

What trips did you take together? Dates, Places, Airlines, Hotels names

What is it about your spouse that you love?

When did you decide to marry?

Most importantly, provide lots of detail about the wedding:

Where was the wedding ceremony? Civil? Religious?

When was the wedding ceremony? Day, month, year

Who was at the wedding? Names & Relation to Couple – Family? Friends?

Where was the wedding party?  

If you have had a child together provide detail on the pregnancy and birth of the child:

When did you find out about the pregnancy?

How was the pregnancy?

Where was the child born? Hospital/Clinic/Other, Date

When did you decide to name the child?

Finally, outline your settlement plans for when you are together in Canada:

Where will you stay when you first arrive in Canada? Purchase or rent?

Explain how you have researched the town or city you plan to settle in.

Explain how you have researched school (if you have a child) in your local area.

Explain how you have purchased private medical insurance for at least your first year in Canada.

Explain what work you the sponsor will be doing or is doing in Canada.

Explain what studies or work (if applicable) the applicant will be doing in Canada.

Finally, remember that along with your relationship support letter, your sponsorship application needs a number of supporting documents . Go here for information on your sponsorship document checklist .
