Be really careful about the version of the forms. They keep changing them ;D We almost sent some older versions, because we started putting together the file at the and of 2012 and applied only in May 2013 :)

We didn't include in our application any forms that didn't apply to us (dependent and representative). Nobody from CIC or VO asked us to do so since, so I guess that was the way to do it :-D

I'm not worried about providing them with additional details, I already sent them. I was just curious if someone else got this request so that I can estimate if it's something they ask before starting processing the file, or does the fact that I got this request mean that someone is working on...

Let's try explaining it another way, maybe this will be more successful: 1. If you did't start the immigration process, you don't have an UCI. 2. The hospital is just saying that you must send the report they've sent you together with the visa application (in the same envelope, at the same...

Thank you, I.N. Hope your life in Canada is everything you expected and more :-) So, about question 8 in the IMM5669 form, I guess I'm the only one that got a request for a complete personal history? I don't know if that should worry me or not ???

As long as your name is on the rental agreement in Argentina, I think you qualify as residing outside of Canada. I think it's about where you reside, not about whether you have ties to Canada. My husband has bank accounts in Canada and has rented storage boxes, but he's been in Romania for...

the UCI number is not required for medicals in the case of family sponsorship. in the case of regular immigration the applicants only do their medicals after their file is in processing, they are assigned a UCI number and the VO gives it to them(a number that is in the form 1234-5678, has no...

amjad1002 - messenger told you to put 2 folders in 1 envelope, not to send 2 different envelopes. No matter if you and your sponsor are living together or on different continents, the sponsor is the one that sends ALL the documents to Mississauga. Everything has to be in 1 (one) envelope, sent...

I'm looking at the checklist and I don't have any idea what you are referring to. There is only 1 checklist - this one http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5491E.pdf It is called DOCUMENT CHECKLIST - SPONSOR because the sponsor is the one that applies for himself for the sponsorship...

You could definitely marry him while you're there. Seeing that you are from a visa exempt country, I don't see why it would be more difficult to enter Canada as a visitor after that. I guess you could even apply for sponsorship while there (inland or outland). If you apply inland you may even...

The sponsor is the one that sends all the documents. So you must have only one envelope, sent by the sponsor to Mississauga. Just put everything in the order specified by the checklist (don't staple them, just put them in order) and everything will be ok.

Doesn't she have a birth certificate or a baptismal certificate or something similar?

Processing times are only estimates, never a sure thing. As they say on top of the page - "The times are based on how long it took to process 80 percent of all cases". Nobody is guaranteeing you that at the precise moment when the 26 or 29 month are up you will be processed and have your visa...

Did anyone get a request for additional details regarding personal history (Q8 in the IMM5669 form)? I filled out the form with the details regarding the last 10 years and they've asked me last week for a complete personal history since the age of 18. I understood from other members on the...

When I was asked to send additional documents, I was provided with the mailing address where I was supposed to send them. That did't happen when they asked for your PPR? Also, I always write my file number on the envelope, so there is no misunderstanding :-D

I see in your timeline that your request came in june 3rd, and your visa was issued on July 22nd - this kind of "long before" is really bearable :-D I can take even twice as long ;D

zardoz - I was asked to detail the question 8 in the IMM5669E form, just like you have been. In your case, was that before or after the application went into process?

CIC is not asking only for wedding photos, but for any photos that will stand as proof that your relationship is genuine: photos with friends and family or form vacations, for example. Also, CIC asks that you provide any other document that can prove the same thing: jointly signed papers...

and why do you want to marry her? so she can sponsor you and make it so you can remain in canada?

bubblyz4you - how old is the girl you want to marry? and why do you want to marry her after just one month of talking through Skype? (not judging, just curious)
