I sponsored my wife to come to Canada for which I had to sign a sponsorship agreement that, among other things, requires that I make sure that she does not have to apply for fanancial assistance for three years. Under the sponsorship agreement, does a student loan qualify as financial assistance? Am I breaching the agreement if she applies for a student loan?
Thnaks.

I'm thinking to apply for a student loan after I get my PR; from my understanding your wife can qualify for EI and student loan; worst case escenario: your wife's student loan will be denied, but I don't think this would happen, it's worth to try, though.
I have a question - by social assistance do they only mean welfare in Canada?
I was laid off in March, and I know unemployment does not count, but now that I am pregnant, I have the option to be on medicaid in my state - which will mean I can stop paying $400/month for health insurance. Obviously, I do not want to do that if it means it might jeopardize my ability to sponsor my partner, but I have been curious - i mean, the unemployment I have earned by working (you only get what you have paid into the system), and I would have no need for medicaid or assistance with health insurance in Canada - does anyone have knowledge or experience with this?? Saving that money would be fantastic, but only if it would not affect my ability to sponsor...
The student loan was approved.
My concern was that if and when Immigration Canada became aware of this, they would consider it a breach of the agreement.
But yes, it does make sense for a permanent resident to be able to receive EI or student loans even while still bound to the agreement. My problem is that I have not been able to find any officiel statement to that effect.
