You can easily submit it via the IRCC Web form: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp

Ours came about a week after Sponsor Approval.

There may be a way around this once you get the CSQ (Quebec Selection Certificate). You get a request to apply shortly after you get AOR, then it takes approximately 1 month to get it. The CSQ may quality you for the RAMQ - you should look into it!

If you get Skype phone credit you should be able to call that number from the states!

Hey knowledgeable people! My de facto spouse is sponsoring me for Permanent Residency and we have received the letter to apply for the CSQ through MIDI. I have a question regarding the 'Application for Selection Certificate - Family Class' form (A-0520-BF). Question 1 asks for 'current...

Retuned as in the application is not complete. If the immigration officer isn't satisfied the you have submitted enough documentation proving your relationship, or you miss a form, or fill in a form incorrectly, they return the application to you without processing. A lot of attention to detail...

Yes, you can. Just keep in mind they need to within the past 6 months when the IRCC officer processes them. Thus, if for whatever reason your application is returned, you will need to factor in the time it takes to re-submit and go back in the queue. Again, there is a risk of needing to provide...

Hey everyone, My de facto spouse is sponsoring me for Permanent Residence and we live in Quebec. Our application is in progress with the IRCC, and we have just been invited to apply for the CSQ through Quebec. I just wanted to clarify that sponsors who are sponsoring a spouse or de facto...

OK second question! On Application for Selection Certificate it asks: 1. Current Marital Status (I am de facto) and you need to put the date. This one is clear - the date AFTER living together for 1 year (i.e. the date we officially became de facto, or in IRCC speak, common-law). BUT, the next...

Hey everyone! I am hoping someone can help with a technicality in the Quebec application forms for a CSQ. I think this is just a language issue (as sometimes the translations on their website are not great). With the IRCC, the Principal Applicant is the person who is applying for Permanent...

You need the IME number the CIC gives you with your medical request to even book at appointment with a CIC certified physician. This is because your medical report needs to less than 12 months old when you receive COPR, thus, if you get your medical done prior to submitting your application, you...

We sent all originals, and kept photocopies for our own records. I do, however, agree with WeegieInOttawa - it's really up to you how you want to send them! I would say, though, if you have lots other evidence in part 7c of the checklist (i.e. i) Important documents for you and your sponsor...

Does anyone know if there is there a WhatsApp group for applications being processed through Sydney, Australia? If not, would people on here find it useful if I created one? I would find it useful to communicate about processing times, issues, etc.

I was in the same boat, where some items doubled up in different parts of the checklist. I didn't include them twice, I figured that once they deem the application complete (that is, you have met the criteria of the checklist), they will consider the application as a whole so it won't matter...

Sorry silly autocorrect! No, they never requested them again. I just submitted them with the original application. Then after AOR, they only requested Schedule A. Yes, they have 6 months validity. The reason they don't recommend to submit upfront it in case your application gets returned, then...

#1 - Family member as defined by the IRCC is your spouse or common-law partner, and dependent children. NOT extended family. #2 - Do you have a copy of her degree from the University in Russia? What does it actually say? You can still get a Bachelor and Masters degree in Russia, so I'd assume...

I just got an email that our application is being sent to Sydney, Australia. Submitted in November, and received AOR before Christmas. Am hoping things go smoothly and efficiently with this VO! Does anyone have a recent timeline with this VO they would care to share? Thank you and good luck...

Yes, once you are married you can sponsor him. Make sure you factor in the time it takes for a marriage certificate to be issued. It would help to get a head start on the application now - it takes some time to fill in all the forms and gather all the documents you need.

All above suggestions are great. Just to add, this is what we also had: - tenant insurance with both our names listed on the policy - I was an authorized driver on my partners car insurance - my partner was named as a beneficiary on my pension from my home country - we were named as...

Yes, you need to re-do your medical exam unfortunately. But as others have said- this is good news as your application is nearing the end! Book in to get the medical done ASAP!
