Hey guys,
I realize I've been posting quite a bit today, but it's only because everyone's input has been invaluable to my girlfriend's application!
I have (hopefully) one final question:
There are a ton of spots in the application that ask for information from the spouse/common-law partner; however, I am pretty certain that for many of these sections I (as the sponsor) do not actually need to submit extra documentation.
For example, "non-accompanying family members declaration" is to be done by spouse, common-law partners, or dependent children. Although I am the common-law spouse, I am exempt from this form as I am the sponsor, correct? Another similar form is the Schedule A Background (IMM5669E); they have an option for the principal applicant (my gf) and one for "the spouse" (me). I don't actually need to fill in this form for myself as I am the sponsor, right? Only my girlfriend needs to fill in this form.
There are many places where the two terms seem to conflict, and so I just want to be certain that the application is complete before we submit everything.
I'm aware that this problem is fairly convoluted, and so I'd like to thank everyone in advance for their efforts in helping me!
