dear madam/sir

first of all thank you so much for this amazing site

in the guide of application of the sponsorship i read :
( You may NOT sponsor if you…

receive social assistance for a reason other than disability)

my question is
i am selection from Quebec ( PR in Quebec )
my friend told me that even i received social assistance in Quebec i still have the right to sponsor my wife

is this truth ?

If you are on social assistance / welfare for reasons other than disability, then you are disqualified from sponsoring your spouse regardless of which province you live in.
