So we submitted our application and realized we made a mistake on IMM5532 Relationship Questionnaire about the sponsor's address history. Because the form wouldn't let us put "present" or "ongoing" for the sponsor's current address, she just put June 2019. The problem is, we got delayed and...

Thanks! That's what I figured but wanted to double check just in case!

Hi everyone! Another last minute, double checking question here! For Additional Family Information IMM5406, does the sponsor also sign the form? Sponsor is a Canadian citizen but is also my spouse. From looking at the guide, it doesn't seem like she would, but just wanted to triple check with...

If you re-downloaded all the forms in late July, it sounds like you got the right ones, and they must have changed from the "new" back to the old one sometime after June. I downloaded mine in early June, so I think you've got the most recent ones. I agree, I think it's such a minor difference it...

They're nearly identical except the June 2019 version has a place for "parent" alongside mother and father in section A, whereas the old one doesn't. Can I ask when you downloaded and filled out the form and when you sent it off? It seems like the change back to the old one must have been in...

Hey August applicants! I'm hoping to join you by sending my application today or tomorrow but I just had a quick question! What version of IMM5604E Additional Family Information did you all use? I downloaded and filled mine out in June 2019, when it was updated, and just checked now and saw that...

I've considered calling IRCC however from what I've heard they don't accept calls outside Canada, and both of us currently live outside Canada. When you say you sent a combination of older and newer forms, do you mean the forms were updated while you were gathering documents and you didn't...

Hey July applicants! I saw some comments about forms being updated and whatnot and was just curious as to what version of IMM5406E Additional Family Information you guys used? I downloaded and filled mine out in June 2019, when it was updated, and just checked now and saw that sometime between...

Hi everyone. Just a quick question. We're nearly at the end stage of finally being able to send in our package. All the documents filled and compiled. But, today when I was double checking the forms to make sure none had been recently updated, I noticed that IMM5406 Additional Family...

Hi everyone, forgive me if this question has been asked a million times or seems obvious! My partner and I file our taxes jointly, and I was wondering where the taxes would fit best for additional proof of our marriage. Would it fit best the "important documents for you and your spouse showing...

So just to clarify: not all applications go to CBSA and/or CSIS? I was under the impression that all PR applications had a security review via CSIS, CBSA and their partners. What does a background check usually include for applicants where CBSA and CSIS aren't involved? Not disputing your...

I'm so sorry to hear you got refused! It seems they're getting very strict with this. Can I ask what sort of proof you provided them? I do hope they reconsider their refusal!

That's what I figured, that if it was necessary it would be stated on the guide or in the checklist, and it's not. I read this information on a couple websites, most notably the Danish Foreign Affairs office that certain Danish documents have to be "legalized" to use abroad. The last thing I...

My question was more about the original document itself. I know about the translations and how to do it (thankfully the international version has English), but this is more a kind of persnickety, bureaucratic method of legality. I read the document itself needs authentication from the Danish...

Probably overthinking this but after scouring the forms I haven't found much clarity. Would appreciate anyone who was married in Denmark, or Europe in general's insight! I keep reading online that because Canada isn't a signatory of the 1961 Hague Convention, foreign documents need to be...

It's a bit reassuring that your certificate was accepted without issue, though I'm still really wary. I'm thinking we might have to get our certificate completely reissued which will obviously slow things down. If there's anyone else with information about this, especially forum veterans I'd...

Thanks for the input. Could I ask what your spelling mistake was? It's more of a typo than anything, an extra letter that shouldn't be there in the middle of the city. I'm kicking myself we didn't notice it until now, which is ironic that neither did my own immigration authorities when we...

Hey all, hoping to get some veterans input here. As I was going over our documents to get ready for our spousal visa, I noticed something that I had never noticed before and my heart sank. On our marriage certificate there is a minor spelling error in my place of birth. It's extremely minor...

A few questions regarding translating documents from German into English and certified copies. As fellow Germans will know, translators in my country double as public notaries; they actually work for the courts and have a high degree of training. However, on the guide, it says all translations...

Thanks for the reply. We live abroad so we have to give the detailed outline of financial assets and support rather than CRA information. We're trying to save as much as possible. She has some savings left over in Canada, not a ton, but a couple thousand, and we're hoping with the exchange rate...
