Well I am glad about giving people hope
On the form - Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking [IMM 1344]
Question 1
If you are found ineligible to sponsor, indicate whether you want to:
1. Withdraw your sponsorship application. All processing fees less $75 will be refunded.
2. Proceed with the application for permanent residence. Processing fees will be retained.
I chose option 2. Which did you choose?
I have read on the forum quite a lot that people believe (because of time taken), that the cic carry on processing your file for permanent resident, while you wait for the CSQ.
- As the CIC know you will be carrying on with the application, instead of putting it on hold, they carry on with doing the background check, police certificate, medical check and that helps to speed up the processing of your file.
