Hi. I am residing in Canada and applied outland, so my application was sent to the office in Ottawa. I'm actually not 100% sure how they go about it. I think depending on where you are residing they are sent to a designated office? I'm a US citizen.
I received my and my daughter's approval for residency in the mail today! So excited!!! :D :D :D I haven't been following this too closely lately (thinking it would now take another 10 months at the least or so), but I'm sure it's happening for others as well?
FYI: Applied outland and...
Which spreadsheet should I fill out? Which one is the best one to keep up with? I filled out one but my information is no longer there. Now I see three different ones and I'm confused ???
I want to fill out the one that most benefits this January Outland 2016 forum.
Thanks!
We submitted application January 8th. Received AOR March 1st. And spouse approval March 4th. It's happening! :)
Hi Drkdd, I'll edit and add the information in my original post: I am currently residing in Canada. I moved here with my husband and children, and we began the process here.

I'll check out the links ... and study your advice. Thanks again.
Well, for example our marriage certificate was issued in Italy, but has French translation. Does a photocopy of this need to be notarized (since CIC accepts French)? Are you saying only documents in English don't need to be notarized? I'm confused now :).
What copies of documents need to be notarized? These are the ones I'm about to notarize:
*Marriage certificate
*Birth certificates
*Medical proof
*Passport copies (as well as date of entry into Canada)
*Photos of my husband and I (although I don't think these would need to be?)
Also, along...
Hi. My husband is Canadian and we are currently in Canada. I am on a visitor visa. We are putting together the paperwork for family sponsorship/residency, and hope to submit as soon as it's completed. However, my passport will expire October 2015--which will probably be mid-application process...
