My wife of 3 years is living with me in Canada. We had to drop our first application due to financial difficulties and now it looks like I may have to declare bankruptcy. The issue is some residual dept from my first marriage that ended in 2004 that has put us in a negative income flow situation. I am having difficulty finding the information relevant to bankruptcy and immigration approval. Can anyone shed some light on the subject? Will I still be able to sponsor my wife after a bankruptcy claim?

You may not be eligible to be a sponsor if you:
•failed to provide financial support you agreed to when you signed a sponsorship agreement to sponsor another relative in the past
•defaulted on a court-ordered support order, such as alimony or child support
•received government financial assistance for reasons other than a disability
•were convicted of a violent criminal offence, any offence against a relative or any sexual offence—depending on circumstances such as the nature of the offence, how long ago it occurred and whether a pardon was issued
•defaulted on an immigration loan—late or missed payments
•are in prison or
•have declared bankruptcy and have not been released from it yet.
