Hello, I initially prepared for a paper application so I have all my documents populated in a PDF. I came across online portal option. Is the MM 1344 and IMM 5532 different or the same?

Please, is it a must that a PR holder apply for PR for his spouse outland. Can’t we apply for a Work Permit? Is there any law against it?

Yes you can only apply for a work permit if you have applied for their PR. Either you send it with the pr application or you do it after you sent the application.

Its a little contradictory . My bad. Mostly its for inland applicants only. But you can always seek legal advice from a lawyer cuz I am not one. But I strongly suggest either you just apply for Pr for her or you apply for a visitor visa for her and once she is here, you can apply for both pr and open work permit together. Thats your best bet.

Thank you for this - I was curious why so many were having trouble with this, it didn't occur to me the issue was they didn't know they could type in other languages in the box.

Small additional note: for those who can't fit the full name in both languages, include a short letter of explanation with this info in both languages. I suppose if someone can't figure out how to type in that foreign language, you could write by hand and scan it. (This will be subject tknowing how to scan and add additional info - and if one doesn't know how to do that, give up and apply by the old paper hard copy method.)

I checked and it gives me the same message as you got. However, there have been instances when application was returned due to no signature. I would suggest you to be safe and print/sign/scan/upload. Turn around time for applications return is running around the same as AOR (around 60ish days).
I did that also .could not risk it.lol

Is there anyway to add documents after submission? I want to submit letter from my employer but can access the application now. I submitted last year Notice of Assessment and last 3 bi-weekly pay stubs. Do you think the missing employer letter will be an issue? Also, how do I submit the letter now?

I am applying for Family Class - Outland. I don't have application number and which office is going to process my application. What should I select for the following Questions in the webform at this stage of application.
1) Is your application being processed by an office OUTSIDE Canada?
(Yes or No)
2) If I say Yes, Choose the visa office processing your application. or is it No at this stage?
Any thoughts?
