Dear All,
I submitted inland application, and today I got following update with rejection. Can anyone please suggest the next steps if you have been in same boat.
This refers to the application you submitted to sponsor your spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child and the associated application for a permanent resident visa.
Please note your application has been rejected for the following reason:
1. Consent and Declaration
A parent or legal guardian must sign on behalf of a dependent child under the age of 18 when a signature for this person is required.
2. Schedule A - Background/Declaration (IMM 5669)
A parent or legal guardian must sign on behalf of a dependent child under the age of 18 when a signature for this person is required.
Note: your application will be rejected as incomplete as soon as one requirement is missing. A complete application must include all required fees, all Departmental forms completed and signed (electronic and/or handwritten signature, if applicable), along with any required supporting documentation. To ensure you provide a complete application, we encourage you to follow the guidelines on the applicable Document Checklist.
An application must meet the requirements of sections 10 and 11 of
the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR) to be accepted for processing. Section 12 of the IRPR states:
“If the requirements of sections 10 and 11 are not met, the application and all documents submitted in support of the application shall be returned to the applicant.”
In addition, Ministerial Instructions were given on December 15, 2016 pursuant to section 87.3 of
the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA), requiring that applications made by sponsored spouses, common-law partners and conjugal partners, as well as the associated sponsorship applications, meet certain conditions to be accepted for processing. Any application which does not meet the conditions established in the Instructions must also be returned.
The forms required by Part A of the applicable
Document Checklist (found online
here) are needed to satisfy section 12 of the IRPR, whereas the supporting documents required by Part B of the
Document Checklist must be included to meet the conditions established by the Ministerial Instructions.
When you resubmit your application, if it meets the requirements for processing, it will then enter the processing queue based on the date of its re-submission.
If you are re-submitting your application please ensure you also include a copy of this letter.
Please refer to the Document Checklist to help you understand what documents are required for a complete application.
Please note that we’ve updated the Document Checklist to make it easier to use and understand. As of February 14th, 2018, you are required to use the new checklist when submitting your application.
Note: The Schedule A – Background/Declaration (IMM 5669) form and Police certificate(s) are now required in order to meet the completeness requirements.
In addition to the Document Checklist, we have also included some additional information to assist you in understanding the requirements for your application. Please consult the
application guide for more detailed information.
Note: If you intend to resubmit your application, please review all attached documents
and ensure that you are using the new version of the Document Checklist. As a reminder, you should also review the application kit found
on our website to help you perfect your application so that it meets the requirements for processing.
The checklist, guides, and information about country specific requirements found at the link above will help you confirm that you have included the required forms and documents we need to put your application into process.
Information about general eligibility requirements for sponsoring your spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner, or dependent child, and the required application forms and documents which must be submitted, can be found
on our website.
Thank you for your interest in Canada.
