September 2022 Spousal Sponsorship Inland (Paper/Online)

[jan1992]

Does anyone know when the updated checklist came out? I submitted my spousal sponsorship application last week and I realized I used the august version of that form and today I noticed there is a new form dated for September. Will they reject my application based on that?

is there a significant change?

is there a significant change?

Now that this application is online only they removed all the paper application details such as mailing addresses but they have not changed any of the sponsorship requirements or supporting documents. My checklist looks similar. I did try to research and I saw IRCC will accept the most recent version of the newest form so I think I should be ok. I am also not sure when the checklist form was updated as the online only option came into place on September 23.

You should be fine then. No need to worry

It was updated on the 23rd. No one can tell you for sure if IRCC will return (not reject, that's a different matter) your application because of it. IRCC is known to return applications that had outdated forms, but some people believe there's a "grace period" right after a form has been updated.

It's not clear if the application is considered to be applied before the 23 of September when it's physically delivered 6 of September but there is no AOR yet. Will they refuse all applications without AOR?

 

[danilb88]

This scares me a bit. My paper inland application was received by IRCC on 12 September. Do you have any idea, when did they added this form related change? Should I raise a webform to send this form and I have not received AOR yet? Please let me know if you have any clue.

Do you have AOR already?

 

[jan1992]

Do you have AOR already?

No. I haven't received AOR yet. But the application reached them on 12 September so fingers crossed!!

I heard that "grace period" is may be 90 days.

Wait a couple hours to open it, it's possible that there are too many people trying to open the file at the same time.

I'll have a look there to see if I can help as my husband and I are Mexicans.

Hi there,
Hope you are doing well.
I was wondering if anybody applied for conjugal sponsorship on paper which was delivered in end of August or in September ?
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I working on an inland spousal sponsorship application for my spouse. I have reviewed my application package, checklist and country specific requirements, and confirmed that IMM5562 - Supplementary Information - Your Travels is not listed on any of the lists, but I was confused by the instructions re: the online portal:

You must fill out these digital forms online
Generic Application Form for Canada (IMM 0008)
Schedule A – Background/Declaration (IMM 5669)
Additional Family Information (IMM 5406)
Supplementary Information - Your travels (IMM 5562)

I looked up online and read comments stating that IMM5562 is now mandatory for all sponsorship program, inland or outland. Does that mean my spouse has to complete IMM5562?

Hellooo.
Just wondering if the the applicant has kids. I was preparing online app for my friend whose wife and kids are in Canada and imm0008 and imm5406 bit confusing about dependants in canada. If you have any thoughts please share..
Thanks

I'm gonna reply in English because my Chinese is sooooo rusty from rarely using it during the 10 years I'm here.

There was barely any talking during my medical exam tbh. The most complicated thing the doctor asked was a list a diseases and whether or not I had them. I guess it depends on how good your English is? If you feel like you would be much more comfortable with a Chinese-speaking physician, then by all means go for it.

Vancouver has an extremely large Chinese population; I would be surprised if you couldn't find a Chinese-speaking doctor there!

Thank you for your reply! You were right. I went to Vancouver city and it worth it. Communication is actually not difficult. Most important is that the environment is very clean and comfortable.

Just a quick update:
And l already got my ME, biometric and eligibility completed in 2 weeks!I also got pre arrival.Lucky me.
My understanding is that it seems that background verification is the most time consuming! Fingers crossed!
