Hello Guys,

Quick Question : my birth certificate was not in English, so I got the translation done in Canada and received the translation document and certified copy of original. Now my question is do we need to send these original documents or copy of these?

Do we need to have all the copies certified or only for the below situation?: THANKSSSS


Any document that is not in English or French (unless otherwise stated on your document checklist), must be accompanied by:
  • the English or French translation; and
  • an affidavit from the person who completed the translation (see below for details); and
  • a certified copy of the original document.

All those applicants from India: do you have your's and parents' names on your birth certificates? I don't have. Do I attach alternative docs like school certificates which too have only father's name.

Hello Folks,

Can you please help me with this question:

I have received the Parents and Grandparents Program Invitation yesterday. My question is

If I put the application to sponsor my parents, will I be able to sponsor my spouse this year as well?

I was filling the form "Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking (IMM 1344)" under Sponsor eligibility assessment

It says, "If you answer “Yes” to any question between 5 and 15
  • You are not eligible to be a sponsor. You should not submit an application.
Question 6:

Have you Submitted a previous application in respect of which a final decision has not been made for the person being sponsored and their family members?

My birth certificate doesn't have my name but has my mom and dad's names. I am providing copies of educational certificates and GOI issued cards as supporting docs.

It's not be included in the initial package. Check guide and checklist. IRCC will send out instructions for biometric, PCC and medicals later in the process.

I am sponsoring my mother.
How do you prove relationship if your birth certificate does not mention mother's name. In old times in my country (India) there used to be no formal birth certificate and education certificate was accepted as birth certificate, However the education certificate only has father's name.
Hi snganu, could you find out the answer for your question? I am also looking for alternatives. I checked Indian govt. websites about issuing a new certificate, it's quite tedious and time consuming.

Yes when we applied for my brother’s canadian passport, then we needed this stamp with guarantor’s signature. I called back shoppers drug mart and they said they have 1 stamp they use for both PR Card and canadian passport.
So I should just use the same pics and sign the sponsor’s sign in place of guarantor’s sign or leave blank instead?
Just leave blank.
