Hi everyone,
I just received my PER email today (yaaay). But then I realized something horrible in my husband's IMM5669 application (I am the principal applicant by the way). I just realized that we answered 'no' to this question
6d. Been refused refugee status, an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) or application to the Provincial Nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or any other Country?
While in fact, he has been refused to get temporary resident visa to Canada last year. We have been living in Canada for the past three years, and we both are holding valid study permits. My husband's TRV expired on 2013, but since the study permit was valid and we didn't have any plans to leave Canada before we finish our PhDs, so we didn't bother much about it.
Then last year he traveled to the United States for 3 months for an internship. While he was there, we thought that he might as well renew his temporary resident visa, in case we wanted to go for a vacation outside North America after he finishes his internship. But because he was on a study leave, for the internship, he couldn't prove his status as a student in Canada then. So long story short his TRV application got rejected, but since the study permit is still valid and no TRV is required from the US back to Canada anyways, so he had never had any problems in crossing the borders. That's why we answered 'no' since he was never actually denied entry into Canada.
Now, after I received the PER email this morning, I was wandering among the applications copies that I have one more time (I really don't know why), when I realized this problem. We didn't mean to misrepresent any information of course. Now what do you think we should do? Should we send any updated or corrected IMM5669 forms (I guess we both have to send updated forms since I am the principal applicant), and try to explain the issue in a separate letter by any means?
But it clearly states in the PER email that:
"Please do not forward additional documents unless requested."
So I am really confused. Please help me.....
