    IMM5490: Have you and your sponsor lived together?

    Thanks so much! Another question I had about the same form is for the extra information I have to provide on additional sheets: Can I just print the pictures on regular paper? Or should I attach real pictures (printed on photographic paper) and refer to them while I write all the extra stuff?

    Advice needed for common-law sponsorship

    Thank you very much! I have two more questions: 1) In my case, considering I have italian citizenship, do you think I should apply inland or outland? 2) If I apply outland, in case they call me for an interview, how do they decide the date of it? Do they just tell you when? Or can you decide a...

    Do I have to provide original proofs?

    Hi all, I tried to search for this one first but I couldn't find anything. All I'd like to know is if I have to send the original proofs along with my application. I will be applying for common-law sponsorship soon, and in order to prove that our relationship is genuine, I could also send some...

    Got a job offer: how do I get a positive LMO?

    Hi all, I have finally managed to find a job offer (as a computer programmer), and now they'd like to proceed with the LMO.

    Thank you all for the tips! Edit: I just have one more question actually, how did you declare your common-law relationship to a bank? Sounds a bit weird

    How long can I leave my partner not to interrup a common-law relationship?

    Thank you sidkrose. I am also wondering: what type of proofs I should hold on to while I'm here, in order to prove our common-law relationship? I'm already receiving mail at my girlfriend's place. We have also opened a joined bank account. Is there something else I could do? Another question...

    Thank you for replying.. That's what I was thinking about, I don't think they'd allow more than 3 weeks. Did anyone experienced this situation before?

    Common-law partner sponsorship

    Yes, I also have italian citizenship. And for a PR application, I thought I should go through the Rome office because I will legally keep my residence in Italy during the processes, even if I'll stay in Canada on a visitor status. Is this correct? And even if London is a bit faster, I think...

    Can I apply for work permit while staying in Canada as a visitor?

    No, I don't have the LMO yet (which is why I would enter as a visitor). I've been waiting in Italy for the LMO response since June and it just got denied for "lack of information". My employer-to-be will probably re-apply again, adding more information, but I really don't want to wait another...
