You can’t apply for spousal sponsorship online. You will have to mail all the signed forms and documents to IRCC.

If your children are Canadian citizens, you don’t have to add them in IMM008. You should only fill their information in IMM 5406 “Additional Family Information”.

Thanks, you are correct. It is not exactly clear on the IRCC website when will American citizens need to provide their biometrics and if it is applicable to those who already submitted their application before this biometric rule came in power. So I assumed that IRCC will not require biometrics...

Yes, but applicants from most countries of Europe (for example) are not required to submit biometrics if IRCC received their application before July 31st 2018.

Married physically present basically means if you were physically present at your wedding ceremony. They ask this question because IRCC don’t recognize proxy marriages (when one of the spouses or both of them were not physically present at their wedding) so it is important for both of you to be...

If your answer is “No” then you do not have to provide those two documents from the “Yes” option. But many people submitted them anyway as an extra proof just because they had those utility bills etc but it is not a mandatory.

For the application number you can either leave it blank or put N/A, for the UCI number yes, it would be that UCI number that your spouse was assigned to when you applied for your PR. I read that once you received your UCI it stays with you for life no matter how many different applications you...

It asks about if you are physically living together right now so you should answer “No” as you moved to Canada so you are not currently living together. But you can mention in that section about any additional information you wish to share in support of your relationship that you have been...

Marrying in a third country itself is not a red flag but your family not knowing nor accepting your marriage with a girl from a different culture could become a bit of a red flag.

As far as I know the procedure would be the same for two foreigners getting married in Ukraine. But your girlfriend could call directly to ZAGS and confirm it (if she speaks Russian). Here’s the link with their phone numbers. https://1fin.biz/registratsiya-braka

If you want to become your spouses representative then you need to submit that representative form along with your application. You won’t automatically become a representative as a sponsor. But it’s not a problem anyway that you have different residential addresses because all the correspondence...

I’m pretty sure you can use the same receipt but maybe someone else could confirm.

You and your spouse will both receive AOR1 with different UCI numbers, you as a sponsor will also receive a sponsorship approval email (if you indicated your email address in the form) and the application transfer email (when they send the application to the local VO). All the other...

There’s no set amount to sponsor your spouse. The tables above are not applicable in your situation because it’s for express entry, not spousal sponsorship. Just show whatever you got. You will also have to write a letter explaining how do you plan to support your spouse, any job prospects, how...

The information needs to be correct and accurate as of the date of your signature, not of the date of sending the application out I believe. Plus now it’s on the basic guide that cic normally accepts scanned signatures too. Note: IRCC will normally accept forms with photocopies of signatures...

But even if your family finds out...what can they really do against you guys?

I got just blank spaces beside the biometrics lines.

If your child is Canadian citizen then you need to mention her name only in IMM 5406 Additional family Information. She can’t be added in IMM 1344 if she is Canadian because this form is only for persons that’s being sponsored and your daughter can not be sponsored since she’s already Canadian...

Did you try to link your application? Usually you need to wait for AOR first to link using your UCI or application number but some people have been successful linking even before they received AOR just entering their place of birth and some other information in GCkey account. If you manage to...
