Greeting Folks!
First of all, I would like to thank each one of you and especially the VIP members of the forum for helping everyone and us newbies with our queries.
I have been waiting for the invitation to sponsor my parents since 2017 and finally for the invite this yr. I want to get this going full throttle as we just have 60 days to submit the completed application.
I have 2 queries and would appreciate any help on answers those.
1. This is with regards to the NOA for last 3 yrs. I have been PR since Oct 2013 but had moved to US from 2014 to 2016, returning back in June 2016. I would be filing on 2017 return this week so I should have NOA within a couple of weeks. I'm sorted for 2017 and 2016 ( I meet the minimum requirements), however, for 2015, I did not file Canadian Tax Return. I have the income and have filed my taxes in the US. May I know if I can include my US tax return for FY 2015 or Do I have to file the 2015 tax return in Canada and include that to be eligible?
2. This is regards to the Spelling of my Last name. Me and My Parents spell our last name differently. All my documents have my last name spelled different to my parents( "PH" as against "F", even through the pronunciation is the same). May I know if the difference in spelling can cause some issues and if there is a way to certify( some sort of affidavit) that both the spelling is for the same last name.
Thank y'all in advance of all the assistance !
