2018 Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications: timeline and updates

[gellyvezina]

I'm pretty sure this is your AOR. Congrats!!!

That is your AOR!

Like what they said, that's your AOR.

What worked for me is to use the option Application Number and Last Name. Supply the information then the drop-down options for the category, etc. Click Search then it'll tell you which other information you need to fill in, the ones with the arrows, NOT the asterisks.

You can also try this:


Category: Permanent Residence
Subcategory: Family (Spouse)

Use UCI and Family Name
-> do not enter anything in the town/city of birth and Country (leave it blank)

Proceed to Passport Info:
- passport number
- country of issue
- issue and expiry date

Enter personal info:
- intended residence (province and city)
- current marital status
- number of applicants: put 2 (if there's only 1 PA and 1 sponsor)

Link. Hope it works! Just remember that all entries you put must match the entries you've written in your application as well.

Thank you so much guys. I'll update when I successfully Link my application

Hi, some more questions. What works as a proof of relationships/living together? We don't have much from the list they suggest. My ideas are:
1. Joint chequing account. Questions are: do they need only the printout with our names on it or they need a history on that account? Also, does it matter if there are any money on that account or not?
2. Could I as a second document submit sponsor's life insurance, stating that the spouse is a beneficiary? Will it work as a proof?

(1) Yes, more banking information, the better. And put at least some money in the account so that the CIC knows it's being used rather than being a dummy dormant account. Maybe at least a couple hundred bucks will do.

(2) Yes, you could do that too! Put in insurances that you're a dependent of the spouse.

(3) if you have phone bills maybe contact the service provider, tell them to put both your names under one account.

Hello Guys.. I Linked my Application Online My mistake was the city/town of birth I didnt put a coma I just put " San Mateo Rizal" so last night i tried putting the coma "San Mateo,Rizal" (like what i put exactly on my forms) and it was a succes!
TIP: Look at your Generic form and put what exactly you wrote in there
and
QUESTION: Now that i link my application theyre asking for police certificates. I know i have to scan and upload it online but.. Will i need a Hard Copy of Police clearance for the future processing of the PR and OWP Application?

I think it depends if they ask for the hard copy. Just keep it at hand in case they request for it. I submitted my hard copy along with the app back in December. So far, they haven’t requested any police certificates from me yet.

You should apply for an extension immediately. In case your application for PR & OWP gets returned, you will be out of status.

Moreover, the PR application doesn't give you the implied status. Only the OWP gives you that. I also read somewhere in other forums that to be able to be granted OWP, you need to have a valid status. If not, you will only be given an OWP after AIP (approval in principle) which comes lates in the process (about 2 months before PR landing)

The extension is also for assurance that you have a status here in Canada.
