    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    Hello I have a somewhat general question. How do you receive the AOR? Is it e-mailed to the sponsor? Or to the principal applicant? Also I tried to link the paper application to my online account, but it's a bit cryptic. It is asking the data about Applicant and about "The Other Applicant". So I...

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    I am aware of these requirements. But the document checklist is asking for a photocopy, so my question is whether a photocopy of the above might suffice.

    Translated document when only a non-certified photocopy is required

    Hello. I am applying for sponsorship and some of the documents required are the photocopies (not certified) of birth and marriage certificates. I have these not in English, but translated in a perfect accordance with CIC requirements - I.e. certified copy of the original + certified translation...

    Sure you can. Why even mention him? The only place he should be mentioned is in the "Additional family information" forms.

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    Sorry to hijack this, but this is a confusing part. I have my birth certificate and parents marriage certificate translated with affidavit and notarized as required. But since the checklist is stating that only the *copies* of these documents to be sent, I am planning to send the photocopies of...

    Wouldn't the appointing the representative "automatically" indicate CIC to use their addresses?

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    Now.. My question is really stupid and I am embarrassed to ask it :) I want to send a PDF file with all of the pages requiring signatures of my sponsored parents to them, so they will print it, sign it and send to me back by regular/courier mail. Now the stupid part. They live in a country where...

    Does it make sense to appoint myself (the sponsor, residing in Canada) as a representative for my parents (not in Canada) ?

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    A bit of a generic question... But when they say a photocopy of a birth certificate, can it be a *photocopy of a certified translation of a document in other language* ? I mean, can it be a copy of the translation with a *copy* of the notary public certificate (the golden stamp thing)?

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

    Hello. My request for sponsoring my parents was affirmed for 2018 and now I have 60 (well, now less) days to submit the paperwork. But the thing is that my parents are not in Canada. I see the application has to be partially filled and signed by them and should be "original" I wonder how is it...

    Applying for Citizenship with VoS instead of CoPR

    It won't harm I guess.. I've just included few lines like "Attaching the VOS document instead of a lost COPR" (expand the abbreviations to get it more convincing..)

    Applying for Citizenship with VoS instead of CoPR

    I just called IRCC and the agent confirmed that the printout of the VOS should be sufficient for both the application and the ceremony. Still would like to hear some personal experiences though.

    Applying for Citizenship with VoS instead of CoPR

    I've lost my Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR) document and requested the Verification of Status (VoS). Recently I have received an e-mail with a PDF page of VoS. The accompanying e-mail have stated that I am not going to receive any other paper except this electronic document. Now I...
