quick question regarding making a copy of nikkahnama for sending with application. as we all know the nikkahnama is not a regular paper size like 8x11. its much larger, did you all convert it into a regular paper size when making a photocopy or did you photocopy it onto a bigger paper
We sent the bigger paper photocopy after getting it notarized.

Hi, the status on my gckey for review of additional documents just went from "we do not need any more documents" to "We need more documents to continue processing your application. We will send you a message with more details."
I haven't received any other messages. Does anyone know what this could mean?
Can someone please reply. I am very worried.

my husband ordered them either yesterday or the day before
Okay. The reason I asked, and I apologize for being cryptic, because a bunch of us ordered GCMS notes for the first time and the day our notes were generated, we saw the same change in our GCKey with no email or pdf letter on GCKey stating what docs it was they wanted.

So I would recommend you email LVO and tell them you see that they need additional docs but there is no letter indicating what docs. They will take a few weeks to get back to you but at least you will have paper trail that you did not receive the email (in case they do need docs and you aren't seeing the email due to some system glitch). All the best.

The other thing you should check is GCKey. under the status table, at the bottom it should show letters sent by CIC with the dates they were sent with. Are you sure you aren't seeing anything there?

Alright thank you so much. So for the people who got this, was it just a mistake, or did they really require docs?
Also, do they have an email, or should I use the webform?

No there are no other letters. The last letter there is from June, when we got the correspondence for proof of communication docs.

It was a glitch in the system. LVO replied to our email to let us know they didn't require any docs at the moment.

LDNIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca

You can also use the Webform. Make sure the PA emails though. They don't usually respond to the Sponsor's inquiries. All the best.
