If it also matters, any type of tax benefit for income also doesn't count towards social assistance. My wife was getting some type of tax credit for about a year or two when we first dated and hasn't since, but we thought this may prevent her from being able to sponsor - NOT THE CASE!

I provided about 14 pages of proof (I know they ask for 10, but we went a little over). I wasn't sure if they meant 10 pages of total social media proof only, or 10 overall - but either way we didn't even include too much social media proof. I showed our facebook relationship/when we met; I...

Question in regards to this for me...as an American can I go up to the local border/visa office and get it stamped or do I have to send it off for the visa? We just submitted ours so we haven't even got any updates yet, but I'm wondering what's next. thx

I sent actual pictures and wrote descriptions on the back of each with our names, but I don't see why that wouldn't work. I know other members mentioned they did that too.

To answer your questions: #1- I put the Barcode’s at the top of the entire packet/application because it says to keep these on top. When CIC gets them they scan them into the system, and by having the barcodes for the applications + fee’s, they know it’s all there and won’t have to send back...

I included it in mine, we obtained both before hand as well. As long as it's before Jan 31st I think you'll be fine.

My wife and I just submitted our paperwork this week and mailed it off. We used the new forms. The order for us was exactly as it is listed on the document checklist, however, I did keep the barcode forms at the top. Any extra sheets of paper we filed in regards to a specific question we made...

There is no Validate button on the 5532 form. I wrote in "Present" - The only form with a validate button which also lists dates/history is the Schedule A form, which lets to pick "Ongoing" as a checkbox.

I have a question regarding this. I don't mean to hijack your thread and I'll create my own if need be...my wife (sponsor) and I just applied and sent package off. We have been dating since 2012 but only have been married since October. I'm guessing once I become a PR this rule will be put in...

We just sent our package today. We used the new forms. Keep in mind they limit photos to 20 photos and 10 pages of “proof” (we provided 14 pages). Our 14 pages of “proof” consisted of boarding pass photocopies with an explanation on the back, proof of each other as beneficiaries on retirement...

We need a Jan 2017 thread, just submitted all our stuff today via UPS (courier) overnight, it'll be there with signature confirmation tomorrow at 10am :D

I submitted mine Early Oct. I received it on Dec 8th. You can call and ask the status.

Thanks for the quick reply.

My wife is the sponsor who is in Canada. I'm the applicant who lives in the US. We're applying Outland (since I live in my own place in the US). We send the application package from Canada with her Canadian address as the return address, correct? We're using courier and I have that address. We...

My wife and I just submitted our new forms with my medical and police record up front. We already planned on doing old forms that's why we got those done already. I don't think they're allowing new patients for up front medical anymore, unless you already have an appointment before the 31sy of...

Okay great! Well those are all there and fully completed/signed. So I guess I should include it? I was thinking just include an extra sheet explaining that I was originally going to use the old forms but we discovered the new forms when we went to apply and went that route, thus me having it up...

I'm happy I discovered this forum, you've all been very helpful to me when my wife and I have been filling our forms out; making sure there are no mistakes or unanswered questions. I need a confirmation please. My wife and I are sending off our documents Monday morning using the NEW forms. I...

The great thing about the forms is you can save them in Adobe, go back in, modify whatever, and then re-validate button to generate updated barcodes.

For those who sent their packet out. Did you all use the Courier address or Canada Post? The Courier Address isn't listed on the CIC website where my forms are listed (or in the checklist), it took some digging and a google search and I finally found it listed on the CIC website. I want to make...
