    MAY 2015 Spouse Application OUTLAND

    Hey, Gemmie. It's a batch letter that many of us get. What they're looking for are the aforementioned documents you may have not sent AND to provide more evidence that the sponsor lives in Canada or intends to return to Canada. (Silly, right? Most of us provided more than enough in the...

    June 2015 - Outland applications

    It's likely coincidence. Lots of others get the docs request email and have never ordered case notes. ;D

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    I still would give the CIC a call tomorrow morning and ask about DM for confirmation, though I still suspect it is real. I would also verify that they have your husband's proper date of birth on file. Have the file number or UCI number handy when you call, and let us know what happens!

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    Hey all, question: After receiving PR, when you leave Canada and then return, does the CBSA continue to stamp your passport? (And is anything done/added to the passport when you land in Canada with your COPR?) I only ask because the US will no longer be offering the ability to add passport...

    Hey, Brew. I got the same email despite the fact that my wife has never lived outside of Canada and that we sent plenty of evidence of her living here. We sent a utility bill, copy of our apartment lease, and recent pay stub with an email reply. I got DM less than a month later. It's a very...

    Thanks for sharing this! I have the same DM date. Hoping to see COPR this week, too. I'm in Toronto, but it's NO surprise that USPS is faster/better than Canada Post in getting you COPR quickly. USPS>Canada Post. :P Good luck landing!

    Addition aplication questions

    I can second Canuck's post. I sent my photos on regular paper, and my application was approved. Black and white is fine, too. I put a few photos per page and wrote underneath what each was.

    Then, my friend, that is DM. Congratulations! Your COPR should be sent to the mailing address you provided. I'm assuming that is you or your immigration consultant. The time between DM and COPR showing up in the mail can be 1 to 3 weeks. I post the links using a bit of HTML coding. No...

    June 2015 - Outland applications

    The email asks for the RPRF fee (if you didn't already pay it), additional proof that sponsor lives in Canada or plans to return to Canada, medical, police certificates if not already provided, and if there's a change in status to your relationship (or if you had a kid). It's a blanket email...

    Lack of some evidence

    What you should consider are things like: - photographs of you together and with friends, family, etc. - any bills in both of your names - any mail or letters addressed to you both - (if you're married) copies of receipts for things like your wedding venue, rings, wedding photos, etc. -...

    US outland applicants' thread :)

    Hey, so if your column that says Permanent Resident Application as DM, then you have DM. When you log on with your husband's info on ecas, use HIS date of birth, HIS country birth place, and the application number/file number. Using your DOB and birthplace with his last name and file number...

    Hey, LN13. It'd definitely have your mother write a letter saying that you plan on staying with her and that you've worked out details. Include those letters and emails you have from friends, etc., too. You could also write in your letter that you plan on enrolling to XX program and XX...

    1. You're fine. Medicals are good for one year, and the CIC officer assigned to your case can choose to extend them if they feel it's close to expiring when they're close to approving your paperwork. I did my medicals two months early, too. 2. You can send your application in without a police...

    Outland application - Last questions

    You should be able to send your passport to Israel; you won't have to go there physically, but you'll have to remain in Canada while they have it (since you can't cross the border without it.) I recommend sending it with someone like FedEx, certified, insured, and with tracking to get it there...

    AUGUST 2015 - OUTLAND Applications

    The CIC sometimes isn't great about updating ECAS. If you've already received SA and AOR2, then it's simply an issue on their part of failing to update the online tool. I wouldn't worry too much; your application is moving along as it should. What does it say for Permanent Residence...

    That's all you need to provide if you sent the other already. I just hit reply, uploaded the documents, and also said that I had included all the other things with the original application (medicals, certificates, payment, etc.). I also confirmed the mailing address, and told them to let me know...

    Communication proof?

    You could also take screen shots of any texts you have sent to one another. That's a daily form of communication that you could include. I'd take a few from every month for the last year (if you have those saved). Some people also communicate with their significant others over chat like...

    Awesome! I got DM the day after you. Hoping I'll see my COPR soon, too. Is your mailing address in the US or Canada? (Assuming it takes longer depending on where it goes. I'm in Toronto.) Good luck with your landing!
