"In your bc", you mean your birth certificate? What does "loe" mean?

Yes and loe is letter of explanation

Hello Everyone,

I got invitation for my parents PR but my parents do not have birth certificates. Can we make Affidavit for that and attach passport copy plus 10th certificate? will that suffice the date of birth requirement? Thank you all.

If you are sponsoring your Parents you do NOT need their birth certificates. You need only your birth certificate to prove you are their child. You need your parent's marriage certificate to prove their relationship.

I(sponsor) have a birth certificate 10 years ago(I used that for my PR application), can I still use this doc for PGP now? thanks

Yes can. Birth certificate is document which does not need to have a validity/expiry date. You can still use your old birth certificate.

Hi everyone, finally got the golden email today after waiting 3 years. I opened the portal and one of the required documents is "Birth Certificates". It doesn't say anywhere whether they need my (sponsor) birth certificate or whether my parents'. If someone can please clarify this, it would be great. Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for clarification. Just one more question on parent's education. My mom has done her matriculation only. How many years of education that will be considered i.e. how many primary school and how many secondary school years?
Thanks a bunch.

Total 12 years education
Primary school = 5 years
Secondary school ( high school 5 years (Metriculation) + PUC (Pre-University / Intermediate) 2 years = 7 years

Not sure if this is already answered
In my bc, father and mothers last name are initialed. Should I submit a loe or an affidavit for this?

IMM 5772 Guide Pg#133 says "If you don’t have access to a birth certificate for someone you’responsoring, or the one you have doesn’t clearly show your relationship(for example, a name is incorrect), you can give a document that showsthe relationship between you and your family member along with aletter of explanation. You should also still include a copy of your birthcertificate."

Hey folks,

I have a few questions regarding uploading passports/travel docs, I would really appreciate if someone could help me with them.

- In "travel documents and passports" section of supporting docs, do we have to include only sponsor/co-sponsors' passports and not the person being sponsored?
- Should passports of person to be sponsored be included in the "additional supporting documents" section?
- For person being sponsored, should we include all pages of their valid/current passport even if it's brand new with no stamps? (do you recommend to additionally include their most recent expired passport with stamps as well?)

IMM 5772 Guie Pg#133 Says:
Passports
Passports for each person being sponsored should include all the pages and be uploaded under “Additional supporting documents” in your online application.
The sponsor’s and co-signer’s passport should
include the pages showing the passport number, issue and expiry dates, photo, name, surname, and place and date of birth
be uploaded under “Supporting documents” in your online application.
You don’t need to get translations for the stamps in passports.
