I just received a letter requesting a completed Additional Family Information(IMM5406). I did originally send this form, but I guess there is some missing information...

The address to send it to is:

Application Intake-FCP
CPC Misssissauga / CTD Mississauga
PO BOX 6100, Sattion A/ Cp 6100, Station A
Mississauga, ON L5A 4H4

This is a different address than the one I sent my application to. Does anyone know if there is a courier address for this department?
I would say post to the address as instructed. Nice to know that they did not return your application but asked you to submit the form.

Hello dear friends,

I am from the Fiji Islands. My husband lives in Vancouver and i live in the Fiji Islands. We got married in December. After almost 3 months of compilation, we sent our application on the 1st of March 2016. We did an outland application. I am new to this forum. Is it ok for me to post here or is there a separate forum for March, 2016 Outland Application.

In addition, my husband did a courier post, how will we be notified that it has reached CIC.

Also, is there anyone in this forum from the Fiji Islands?

Thanks Mandie for the welcome.

Yes, the countdown has just begun. It was a nightmare filling in the forms and the stress that my husband and I went through.

Its really good to know that i have friends online who are going through the same process.

Thanks for the support.

Of course you are welcome here :)

I just wanted to point out that there is indeed a March 2016 Outland thread in these forums. In case you were also interested. Here is the link:

Hey team!
I was wondering if you guys know how is the email from the CIC should look like, I'm very impatient like I've said before, but seeing some of you getting your papers back makes me ask my husband every single day to check his email, he is very laid back and not into checking emails or anything so last night he asked me exactly how should it look like so he can make sure he doesn't erase it if he gets something.

I take comfort in the fact that I have not gotten my application returned to me.

Hey everyone,

Closely following everyone's timelines here :) I'm pretty excited to get that first initial AOR.. do they email that to the sponsor or the principal applicant?

This is my 2nd application - the first one I sent had expired application forms... that really sucked!
