I just sent them a case specific email asking whether or not to re-submit. But by the looks of it, I can just disregard this letter unless they respond otherwise. I really hope they get back to me soon because if it is indeed true that I need to re-submit, I have time working against me. I...

In our letter, it is hard to tell because the first few lines are cut-off. But if I were to slot the "If" at the beginning of the lines that are cut, it might actually say that. Does this mean I just disregard the letter? And for clarification, medical checkups expire after a year, correct...

I think this might be it then. Here's the start of the email after the new file and uci numbers: "This message is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada as a member of the family class. Your file has now been transferred to the Consulate General of Canada in Hong...

Yeah, the email came with a new File & UCI number. I went on the site and it all checks out. Now I'm not sure if I should re-submit everything. It sounds to me like this generic email is just a glitch?

This is exactly the email we received. I can get most of those things to them but some of the documents would be a little more difficult and probably require her family in China to send in separate packages. Some of the notarized ones are just ridiculous to have to go get all over again. What...

Hi all, I sent in my application and it was received on March 14, and they started processing the application on April 25th but I just received an email requesting documents for her application. This is very strange because a lot of the documents it is requesting, we submitted with the...

Hi Everyone, I'm about to return to Canada with my wife (using her TRV) and I'm wondering if it's okay to list our mailing address as the one in Canada while including an explanation. I'm thinking I should probably do it this way because firstly, we wouldn't need to include Chinese mailing...

I have a quick question. In the guide for the applications, they quote, "You and each of your family members must complete their own form." Does this mean only those who are being sponsored? For example, I'm sponsoring my wife and her family members would be anyone excluding me who's...

Then is it possible to go to Canada first then send in the application as outland?

Hi everyone, 1. On the Generic Application for my wife's PR application (IMM0008F), do I exclude my son as a dependent? My son was born in China to a Canadian father (also born in Canada) so he automatically has Canadian citizenship. 2. If we are planning on doing the Outland application but...

Thanks Canuck_in_UK. Great clarification.

I am a Canadian citizen and there are no problems with getting him the citizenship. What I'm trying to say is, if I go to Chongqing and get his application in, does that mean he automatically gets the citizenship status or do I have to wait until the entire process is complete before I can...

Hey all, I have a question about my situation. I am still going through the forms and filling them out and I've hit a dead-end. On the generic application form (IMM0008), it asks for information about the applicants dependents. We have a son, who was born 3 months or so, we haven't gone to...

Hi everyone, Thanks in advance for your help thus far. Every time I try to get on my application forms, I seem to get stuck somewhere and maybe it's just me thinking too deep into it but I can't help but wonder. My confusion is with question 11 on the IMM5540 which asks if I (sponsor) am...

Thanks for responding Mazleen. Your response helps a lot. I am wondering, however, if I put a Canadian address, how does the correspondence go? I tried emailing the embassy in Beijing about our application and they said we have to send in our application to Mississauga, then the CIC will...

Hi everyone, Recently there's been some stuff that's been going on back home. I currently live in China with my wife and newborn son. My son still doesn't have his citizenship (will apply soon) and my wife doesn't have her PR yet. We are planning on applying for the citizenship and temporary...

Thank you so much for the prompt responses!

I've been on and off with the application forms because it seems like I keep getting stuck and there's no one to ask for clarification. Anyways, my question is for question 24-25 on form IMM5490, where it asks about visitation during the relationship. It asks me to provide evidence of my...

I think I started a new topic instead of adding to this one. Apologies, as I'm very new to this. Anyways, I have some questions. Background: My wife (Chinese) and I (born in Canada, citizen) are expecting our first child. We originally were going to do the outland thinking we would make it...

Hi everyone, I've searched high and low for answers to some of my questions and I haven't been able to find anything so I'm posting a new topic. Forgive me if there are previous ones. Background: My wife (Chinese) and I (born in Canada, citizen) are expecting our first child. We originally...
