Hi,
I am new here. I applied for Spousal Sponsorship application. I sent the application on 1st, October. Today, my application got delivered at the address which was mentioned in checklist. I sent the application through courier. I didn't get any notification/confirmation email from them that they have received the application. Will they notify through email?
Thanks
Yes but this will take months. Currently it seems like people who's applications were received in June are getting notified. So you've got a bit of a wait. They'll send it through email

You mean they will take months to confirm that they have received the application. Or you are talking about AOR?

Hello Seniors,

I am going to apply for my wife's PR under spousal outland category. In the package there is a form imm5669(Background/Declaration) where it says" You(the PA) and any of your family members 18 years of age or older(who are not already Canadian citizens or PR) must fill out and sign their own copy of this form"

This applies for me(the sponsor) and my wife(PA) only who are in this application, right? We both should fill out and sign copies of our own and none of the family members on both sides(who are not accompanying) should have to do this ..correct?

Please advise..thanks for your help in advance

This applies for me(the sponsor)
NO THIS DOES NOT apply to you since you are the SPONSOR. They made few forms confusing. This was made for many categories of immigration applications that's why it asks for spouses infos as well. You, as a the sponsor are already a Canadian citizen or PR. You do not need to fill it out because you are not applying for coming to Canada for yourself. 100% confirmed from many sources. They should write clearly on the form, "If you are a sponsor please do not include yourself here" It won't cost them millions but save thousands of sponsor's doubts which you, me all ask or wonder everyday. Like it? Thanks

Many answers are here but tis is from another site:-

No - you won't qualify for conjugal sponsorship since there is nothing stopping you from living together for a year to become common law.

No, Conjugal is only for those who can't marry, not those who won't. Financial reasons aren't seen as a reason you can't. It's more so for same sex couples in countries that it's illegal, places where divorce is illegal, ect. Not just because he can't afford to get divorced

Since you haven't lived together for at least one year, you would have to get married before you could apply.

If he lives in Canada, till he is divorced they will not recongnize anything. “Legally seperated” is just a reason to show when filing for divorce. Legally he is still on the hook.
