| Subject: Spouse vs. spouse + dependent |
Is it easier to get approval in general if you apply to sponsor just your spouse rather than spouse + dependent?
The dependent would be 21 years old.
In theory? In practice?
Thanks!

All dependents and applicatns must be examined anyways so why would it slow anything down?
The Applicant applies for a Police Clearance Certificate with the dependent at the same time.
The Applicant takes a medical with a DMP at the same time as the dependent.
Results are obtained at the same time.

Thanks Roy.
I wasn´t asking whether a spouse + dependent application would slow things down or not.
When I said "easier to get approval" I was simply asking whether an officer would _treat a spouse-only application with the same amount of consideration and scrutiny as a spouse + dependent application.
The reasoning/thinking that Canada would be taking on a risk of just one person with a spouse-only application, but two people with a spouse + dependent application.
Therefore more likely to approve a spouse - only than a spouse + dependent, all other factors being equal.
We are in a situation where the 21 yr. old dependent does not wish to immigrate (at this time).
They will not be in school next year.
So a decision needs to be made whether to apply as accompanying, or not accompanying.
If we knew the dependent would jeopardize the application, we would list them as non-accompanying.
