Hello,

A few days ago the document checklist for nationals of pakistan requested:
"Educational documents for applicant and spouse such as all educational documents and school leaving certificates "

I called CIC about this last week and the agent said that original educational documents don't need to be sent, a copy is fine, even though the document checklist for South Asia states "Nationals of Pakistan must send originals of all documents (p.2)."

Now when I checked back at the the document checklist for pakistani nationals today it is stating:
"Original educational documents for you and your family members such as transcripts indicating a list of courses taken, scores achieved as well as certificates obtained (p.3)"

This is really frustrating because my husband just sent his documents to me yesterday!! Now he will have to send another parcel. :/

So yes you must submit originals educational documents!

hope this helps

This is strange. Why would they need educational documents? I thought education had no bearing on the spousal applications. :-/

I attested my wife grade 12 certificate from foreign affairs and district education officer. Just to conform it that its correct and valid certified certificate. It was not translation of Urdu because it was in English but still I did. So it depends on you how you doing it.

shamsia it just if you went to school in back home so you.can provide education background. It ask you in the application about school history. My sister in law did not go to school and she did not provide any school history or certificate.

We had to provide our school history too, but we did not have to submit any educational documents. I just assumed its the same for everyone in the subcontinent...

That is right. No educational documents(orignal/photcopied) are required to provide unless otherwise asked for, which is very rare and mostly happened If there is block spot on ONE background/clearance report.

Application only ask for education history thats it!! I submitted my application while my wife was in last year of school, 9 months later when we received IMM forms to refill again wrote student but last 6 month as a house wife since she graduated. Most of you know my case was objected but they never ask for any education documents OR any other document or any notorized/attested documents. Khan999 please make application hassle free by not attaching educational documents and your time and immigration officer time.

In my opinion this is a standard requirements form for PK's application applying to immigrate to Canada including SKW. If one is applying under SKW for him/selfself including all member of family [Father/Mother & dependend childers) OR if applying for family sponsorship of other family members [Brother,sister except spouse] then yes ONE needs to apply. However in case of Spouse sponsership this requirement is not obligated. They should have seprated this form in TWO forms. 2nd form for Spouse sponsorship where this line need to be deleted. Hope this clarify.
