Hi ,

I just filled out IMM 1344 , when I try to open it back I am seeing an error
"CO -signer Contact Information -
The format you entered in the following field was incorrect .
1: Telephone No (Country Code)

The Correct format is:
Must be numeric and must not start wilth '11'
"

I am not sure how is it picking 11 instead of 1 , anyone else is facing same issue??

Thanks
Did you figure out how to get around this? I have the same. Thanks.

Since Lakewood and HeisenbergCanada suggested to use Canadian address for Additional family form, what address should l use for Generic application under question 1 and 2 : Mailing and Residential Address.

Also, is it okay to leave issue and expiry date blank under section- National Identity Card (India), since there is neither issue nor expiry date mentioned on Adhar card (NIC).

Assuming that your brother is 22 year old, You should provide an explanation letter in this regard.

Dear IRCC Officer,

This is to explain that my younger brother's current passport has an error, it has a wrong middle name. My younger brother's age is ___ and he will be part of my parents immigration application as a dependent. A copy of current passport (with wrong middle name is provided). The current passport number is ________ ; The middle name in the current passport is ___________ but based on the birth certificate the correct middle name on passport should be __________

We have started the process of getting a new passport with correct middle name, in Philippines i could take up-to 6 months to get a new passport with correction. Meanwhile, In order to meet the PGP application deadline we are providing the current copy of passport. As soon as we have the renewed passport, we will provide IRCC office a copy of the new passport.


Meanwhile, kindly accept the application package for my parents immigration with the current passport of my younger brother. My brother's full name is ____________
Thank you, thank you, This is a huge help.. My brother is 13 years old.. ;)

5. your spouse or common law partner, if not included in 3 above. provide details on the back of this page if he or she is not co-signing the undertaking.

Hi everyone! I have a question.. In IMM 1344 (Application to Sponsor) you have to validate it right? On the lower right corner of the page there is a number and everytime you will validate it, it will change. What if the page where you have to sign and the rest of page are different number? Do you think they still gonna accept it? There is no way i can ask my parents to send me a new one because we have to submit it before my brother turn 22 this coming April 22 and i just noticed it today. :(:(

If one page of the set is different, you are risking the integrity of the application unless the page you mentioned does not have any serial number indicated the set of pages. IRCC may deem that your application is altered and may return your application. In my opinion, it's not worth it to do that.
As for the timing, perhaps you can use the courier, fastest possible way to send/receive your documents?

#3 in your case would be your parent's family, e.g. 3
#5, your answer is correct, 1 indicates your wife. This however does not have anything to do with your wife being co-sponsor. IRCC needs to know total members of your family and the family that you are sponsoring (your parents' family including your dependent siblings, age under 22)
#6, your answer is correct, 1 indicates your son

I have almost completed my application package.

For Supporting documents, I checked Checklist and documents to be send are -
1. Marriage certificate - Sponsor and co-signer
2. PR card front and back page - Sponsor and co-signer
3. Birth certificate of Sponsor - proof of relationship
4. Passport front and back page - my parents and Sister(12 yrs old)
5. Marriage affidavit of my parents
6. My sister's Birth certificate
7. NOAs for 2017, 2016 and 2015
8. Processing Fees
9. Confirmation email copy from CIC

Are there any other documents which are good to send in advance.
For e.g. - I don't have Canadian passport; I am on PR status here..and checklist doesn't ask me to send my passport details. is it good to send or not required ? Any advise.

Yes I checked with CIC and they asked me to choose other and write country code of my own , I have added small explanation over there on separate sheet as a reason for choosing others rather than canada.
