RV, You do not need a consultant.

Just scan and send proof of cohabitation through CSE enquiry. Include the letter they sent you.

Proof of Cohabitation:
  • Joint bills with address on it
  • Joint bank statement with address
  • Driver's licence back and front for both of you with address
  • Costco cards showing joint account and address
  • Credit card bills with address
  • Work permit with address
  • Pay stubs for sponsor and applicant with same address
  • Air Miles account with both names and address
  • Letter from landlord indicating you have been living together
  • Prescriptions for one or both of you with address
  • Doctors communication with address on it
Any other communication that shows address for applicant and sponsor as the same

Thank you so much Browning!! But I just double checked that they have asked for proof of relationship and cohabitation.Anyway we have a lot of photos together at different events and with friends , we can send them those as well. But yeah I was also wondering that they have requested us to send all the documents through Case Specific Enquiry, so how can we send photos through CSE, we will have to scan them right, so in that case we dont have to take the printouts because we already have the digital copies.Also the notorized letters are also to be scanned and sent, CIC dont need to see the original notorization ?

4MB limit... So CASE isn't easy with scans docs and pics... How many do you have??

Notarized letters you can, but shouldn't. If you're sending lots, send by courier.

Pics... A letter or two, cohabitation proof should be enough. Married couples don't have to have communication proofs usually...

Yeah we have lots of bills , grocery bills , restaurant bank statements, pics etc, it would definitely be more than 4MB.But in the letter they have requested to send it through Case Specific Enquiry only. and they have not mentioned any address for the same.

But Profiler , I am asking in general , can we send just soft copies of photographs , and notorized letters , they can not refuse it right , because they have not mentioned anywhere , that they need the hard copies.

Correct. I would attach the scans and pics in a word file, then change to pdf and upload...

Changed dates & numbers. I put a Kitchener address because thinking of the Profilers.
The street name is correct... though it's #1.

And it's Cambridge, not K-town. But common mistake :).

I was born in the Generation X era (< 1980). So that must be ...

wait... 867-5309... JENNY!!!!

Hi! Is it possible to apply for a correction of the OWP? I was sent the OWP based on my old passport even though I had sent my new passport to them via IRCC webform and they confirmed it was sent to the responsible office.

Or should I wait till it expires to get a bridging work permit or something?
It happened in the past to my wife for her study permit.
Use that form to request the correction: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/amend.asp
Your current work permit is valid, use it. Ask the correction, they will send a new work permit in about 2 months. Update your work permit with your employer when you will receive the corrected one.
