Re sponsoring parents, did you also upload their properties, such as home ownership as well as their bank statement and birth certificate?
Thanks again

If you have been invited to apply, there is no need to upload ownership of your parents properties or their bank statements. Follow the list of documents requested, you will need marriage certificate for sure.

There is no requirement. GC key shows you more details regarding the stage of your application and its progress.Many applicants are waiting for ghost email, you are certainly not alone.

you need 2 applications for 2 families, one for each of your parents as they are two families now. In both applications only you can be the sponsor and your spouse can be co-signer if needed.

Thank you so much for your reply. my parents' cases are little different. They were divorced back in 2005 but still live together until now. When they applied for a visitor visa to Canada back in 2019, they reused the old marriage information, applied for visa as married couple. Now, when we apply for PR for them, how could explain the marriage status difference between previous visa application vs current PR application...I heard that during background check, inconsistency of information (marriage status in my case can lead to failed application. Do you have any input in this situation? Thank you so much in advance.

The IMM5406 we submitted when we applied wasn't the pdf version but the online one, signature of dependant wasn't required. Please complete the forms carefully and let the Principal applicant and dependents sign. The letter from IRCC usually state the people that are required to complete the form. Your signature isn't required.

Yes, I too remember that for IMM5406, it was online version, no hand signature required. Only IM1344 required physical signature of principal applicant, sponsor and co-sponsor. This is for Oct 2021 invitations. Let us know if anyone else has different understanding on forms which need hand signature

So Principle applicant is my father, dependant is my mother and they have two children (me and my brother,both are here in Canada) So I assume its just 4 forms (2-individual & sign and 2-individual with native language & sign) for mom and dad as we both are in Canada and adults and not dependents.

but form also says The principal applicant, their spouse or common-law partner (if applicable), and all dependent children 18 years of age or older must complete their own copy of this form.
I am confused do we have to fill the form or not?

I have a question, my parents shifted to another address and Passport has the old address. In forms we provided present address- can someone tell me what how should I deal with it? Is it ok or I should provide a letter explaining this situation?
