Hi to all!

I read the thread and couldn't help myself not to share. I am also separated and have two kids, when I submitted my application I included our "compromised agreement document" in which all our sworn statements are listed and signed by us and a lawyer. Of course it includes "both party are now living separately" etc. etc. I also filed an annulment so I requested for a certificate that the annulment is being processed in my home country. But the sad part is that my children are not accompanying me in Canada because on the agreement they are on their mother's custody. I have no choice but to put them as not accompanying... I sent my application April 7 and got my AOR April 30, 2014... Now I'm waiting for MR or any request from CIC.

Thanks!
 
hi, I am in the same boat as you too, my lawyer just made me a letter of explanation and the husband doesnt need to sign. I submitted my PR application last June and got aor in august, it's a good thing too that we didn't have kids or property. I just hope that it wouldn't cause any future delays though.

Hi, I am in the same boat. we are staying separate for 4-5 months but not filed divorce yet. Could you please guide what legal documents will be needed along with my application?

IRCC would prefer to see the divorce certificate. Failing that, the legal documents that you have filed for divorce.

Are you both in Canada or not?

You will likely need a lawyer. If he can provide a sworn statement that you are separated, that he has no intention of reconciliation, no intention of ever immigrating to Canada, and agrees that you can never sponsor him for immigration, then IRCC may accept that.

Otherwise, you will have to include him as a non-accompanying spouse, which would require that he completes the medical exam and provides police clearances...

Hi,
Thank you for your response!
We are not in Canada. We are in India.
Does my husband need to sign the sworn statement or just me? I am afraid he would not do that.

Both of you. If he won't do that, then file for divorce and include that as proof.

I made an affidavit explaning what happened in our marriage and that I am planning to file for divorce in the near future, then I have it notarized by a lawyer.my representative got me tp sign a declaration form (which u can request from CPP Ottawa) stating that my soon to be ex-husband is not part of my family member and he will not be sponsored in the near future. Goodluck on your application.
