Hello
I have a question, I plan to marry on December with my fiance in his country, but I am currently full time student in college and I receive OSAP (student loan) for pay my studies and other expenses. I do not work due for my studies, I am receiving financial support from my father and my ex-husband.
My future husband, he has properties and income in his country, if is possible I can show to immigration process his income and properties that support the financial situation.
Wait for replay,
Thanks
Rocio

Hello!
I have a similar question, so I ask through this post.
I am a full time student at University, doing my graduate studies with a student permit. Could my fiance come here to Canada to work with an open work permit? I think I do not have enough documentation to prove our common-law relationship, but I believe she could come here and marry me to obtain her work permit.. We are planning to stay in Canada temporarily, until I finish my studies..
Thank you so much for your support!!
Maxi

Hello Rocio,
Thanks for sharing your question with us.
To answer your question, OSAP is not considered social assistance.
We have had other users ask the same type of question. You can find some of the same answers and the reasoning why in this previous Settlement.Org Discussion Thread.
You may also want to contact the the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) Call Centre directly for some additional information.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.
As stated in the CIC Website in the Guide 5269 - Applying for a Study Permit outside Canada (under 18 years of age) Family members section,
Your family members include your spouse or common-law partner, your dependent children and any children that are their dependent children
In that case, your fiance will have to find a way to apply on her own.
You may want to contact the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) Call Centre directly for some additional information.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
