I graduated from a bachelor's degree and applied for a postgraduate degree in Canada. My wife also wants to study with me for a spouse visa?

first, the United States-spouses can accompany them but not find jobs

The visa applied by international students studying in the United States is called F1 visa, while their spouses apply for F2 visa. Among all non-immigrant visa applications, F2 is the one with a high pass rate, because American culture attaches great importance to the reunion of husband and wife.

In principle, only one condition is required to apply for an accompanying visa in the United States, that is, the spouse is a full-time student or visiting scholar in the United States. The applicant does not need to take any English proficiency or professional tests, as long as his/her spouse can prove that he/she is legally studying in the United States, he/she can apply for an accompanying visa. However, it should be noted that American law stipulates that F2 visa cannot legally work or study in the United States. Therefore, if the applicant wants to continue his studies or develop his career, he can also apply for a school or look for a job after arriving in the United States, and convert the F2 visa into a student visa, a work visa or an immigrant visa.

Application related materials: F1 study visa related materials of students, proof of the relationship between the applicant and his spouse and/or children (such as marriage certificate and birth certificate), my passport, invitation letter, etc.

Second, Canada-All roads lead to Canada

Every year, many China students go to Canada to study. There are many ways for spouses of foreign students to accompany them to Canada for a long time, and there are three main ways to choose from:

When applying for a study visa, the spouse carries a multiple-visit visa

From the perspective of immigration law, Canada allows spouses of foreign students to apply for a visit visa to live with foreign students in Canada. When entering the country, make clear the intention of accompanying students to the customs officials, and they can issue a VISIT

RECORD to their spouses that allows them to stay for a long time. Moreover, you can go back and forth many times. However, the visiting visa held by the spouse cannot legally work in Canada.

The second way is to apply for a visa to visit relatives and then convert it into OWP

This is a widely used method for spouses of foreign students at present. As long as the foreign students themselves are studying at a Canadian college or university with a college degree or above and a valid STUDY

PERMIT, the success rate of their spouses' conversion to OWP(OPEN WORK

PERMIT) after they get a visit visa to Canada is very high. However, this method has limitations: 1) The spouses of foreign students are often young and have weaknesses in work, assets, deposits and exit records; 2) Once the spouse leaves the country, he needs to apply for a new visa when he returns to Canada.

Route 3 directly brings OWP, or applies for OWP in China

This means that when applying for a visa to study abroad, the spouse directly brings OWP, or when the international student is in Canada, the spouse directly applies for OWP in China. Not many people have adopted this method, but there have been some successful cases. The advantage is that the spouse gets a work visa and work permit with the same validity period as the study permit for international students, and can work in Canada, and there is no need to re-apply for a visa when traveling to and from Canada. However, the success rate of directly applying for OWP in China is not as high as that of converting OWP in Canada.

third, Britain-accompanying students must have money

English accompanying students must have money. If one spouse has come to the UK, the materials that need to be sent by the other spouse include: bank statement, his/her invitation letter to you, proof of accommodation in the UK, telephone bill, and a copy of his/her visa. What you should prepare are: marriage certificate, company leave certificate, deposit certificate (if the income from his/her bank bill is not enough to pay for the living expenses of two people).

iv. Australia-a visa for accompanying students who can work legally

The visa for accompanying Australian spouses is a student visa. The Australian student visa is 573, and the visa type for accompanying readers is also 573. Accompanying readers in Australia can legally work (no more than 2 hours per week); If a student holds a 573 (Master of Teaching) or 574 (Doctoral) visa, the working time with the reader is unlimited. In addition, you can accompany the reader to study, but the study time cannot exceed 3 months. If the course you apply for with the reader exceeds 3 months, you must re-apply for your own student visa, which can be handled in Australia.

Requirements for applying for an Australian spouse accompanying visa:

1. Applicants must have a husband-and-wife relationship with their spouses, or proof of cohabitation for more than one year;

2. Only when the student's visa is longer than one year can he accompany him;

3. When students apply for their own visas, they must fill in the names of accompanying readers on the family member form, regardless of whether they sign by telegram or in general.

v. New Zealand-Conditional Visa for Accompanying Students

New Zealand is an immigrant country with a small population. At present, it has provided quite generous immigration policies to the mainland, so the requirements for accompanying students are not high, but it requires certain conditions to apply for a visa for accompanying students.

The New Zealand Immigration Bureau stipulates that students studying in New Zealand's research-oriented master's or doctoral programs are free to work without time restrictions, and their spouses can obtain work visas (children under the age of 18 can attend New Zealand public primary and secondary schools free of charge).

For spouse's company, there are the following conditions:

1. Students are enrolled in a long-term absolute shortage course, and the course is undergraduate or above;

2. The courses attended by students are postgraduate or above;

VI. Japan-only couples can accompany them

There is a policy of accompanying couples to study in Japan, and accompanying students can work in Japan, but it should be noted that cohabitation cannot be applied for.

The application conditions for accompanying students are basically as follows: first, international students have lived in Japan for at least half a year, usually for more than one year; Secondly, the requirement is that foreign students above monks, doctors are the easiest to be approved, and undergraduates are more difficult; Thirdly, international students themselves should have a bank deposit of about 2 million yen and a certificate of fixed income of more than 2 million yen per year (generally referring to scholarships, grants and research grants provided by schools, etc.); Finally, an economic guarantor is needed.
