    A few questions before we submit

    Thanks, FrostiRose. Unfortunately, with all that we have, it's not really possible to fit it all into one. Even if we tried to just put the checklist documents, we have things that are good proof but don't really fit on the checklist as much or they aren't for the full 12 months time but are...

    A few questions before we submit

    Hi all, My common law partner (Canadian citizen) and I (US citizen) are almost ready to submit our application! We appreciate all the help you guys have given us and have a few more questions we hope to get some clarification on. 1. Do we put the barcodes on top of the entire package? Or do we...

    Need advice regarding new common law requirements

    Thanks for replying, wait_so_long! I know May is sort of close, but it's just that we have been common law for a while now and are ready to move forward with the app. It helps to know you think our proof is sufficient. Awesome, thanks canuck! I really appreciate that and think we will do just...

    Need advice regarding new common law requirements

    Hi all, I'm from the US and my common law partner (Canadian citizen) is sponsoring me. We were on the cusp of submitting our application when the checklist and new requirements came out and now we are unsure about submitting because on the checklist they specifically ask for this: Provide...

    Can we use labels on the backs of photographs?

    Thanks for taking the time to inform me, km9203! I must have missed that part on the guide. Also, just for clarity, this is for the 20 photographs of us together for relationship proof, not the applicant photo. But that makes me want to avoid labels altogether, regardless. I appreciate the help!

    Can we use labels on the backs of photographs?

    Thanks, canadalover4987. Yeah, I guess it's better to just follow the checklist's instructions. But we did kind of mess up the back of one of the photos. I hope it doesn't look too strange if we scratch it out and write the description with a better pen. Haha, we had the exact same issue with...

    Can we use labels on the backs of photographs?

    Hi all, We are having trouble writing on the backs of our photos. All of the pens we've tried either don't write well enough or smear and pencils haven't worked for us, either. And now there's a smeared spot on the back of one photo. We'd like to use labels to make it easier and also to cover...

    IMM 5532 Question: How specific do they want gross monthly income figure to be?

    Thank you, CDNPR2014! Okay, so we are probably overthinking it here. We'll take your suggestion and maybe include a note since we already have another note for the same form we need to put in anyway. We appreciate the help!

    IMM 5532 Question: How specific do they want gross monthly income figure to be?

    Hi all, My common law partner is sponsoring me and he's working on the employment history section of IMM 5532 for a past job. The problem is that this job was highly variable as far as hours, so he can't come up with a consistent number of hours per month. Does anyone know how specific this...

    Confused about new checklists. Please help me determine which ones we need

    Awesome, thank you so much for clearing that up danawhitaker! I really appreciate you taking the time. Okay, so no form 5481 for us then I guess. This should make the process much easier for us since we have some direction and know our checklist.

    Confused about new checklists. Please help me determine which ones we need

    Hi all, My common law partner (Canadian citizen) is sponsoring me (American citizen) and we're trying to discern which checklists we need to follow. We're doing outland common law sponsorship and have filled out most of the forms we thought we needed, but we are confused which ones we actually...

    Medical and FBI times question

    Awesome! Yes, the panel physician does use e-medical. Thank you again, Ponga! Much appreciated.

    Medical and FBI times question

    Thanks, Ponga! So just to make sure I have got this right. I haven't been to the US since the FBI check was issued, so it actually won't expire at all? And I guess even if it does, I still have 3 months left before that. So I can probably safely wait until Dec. 1 for the medical and just send...

    Medical and FBI times question

    Hi all, My spouse and I have some questions regarding FBI and medical times. We got our FBI check a bit early, I think. Is it good for 3 or 6 months? On Nov. 29, it'll be 3 months since we got it. We've been rushing to get our PR finished and submitted to CIC by that date due to the FBI check...

    That's true, then I will have it to produce for later just in case. Thanks again! I will include just the normal cards and things we got from her.

    Sponsor's mother backed out of letter she gave. Advice on our situation, please?

    Yeah, that's a really good point especially thinking about it from that perspective. Thanks for sharing, Regina. Thank you, profiler, for that info! That's a good way of putting it if the matter does come up. And honest as well. Awesome, thank you! Then we'll just keep things simple and only...

    Sponsor's mother backed out of letter she gave. Advice on our situation, please?

    That's a very good point. Thanks for the information, Dana2. I appreciate the advice again, profiler! I think we'll use it given the info you guys have given us in this thread. Thanks very much for the info, Canadianwoman! I definitely get where you're coming from regarding our evidence...

    Thanks, CDNPR2014. That is the way we're leaning, so I appreciate the advice and thanks for sharing the story you mentioned. Okay, glad to hear it. Thanks for the advice, keesio!
