First of all, I'm by no means a lawyer or expert on Canadian Immigration. What I'm saying is just from reading other member's experiences from the forum and other blogs.pradhan12 said:No, I applied through Consultant. They had their own lawyer living in Canada. While Canadian lawyer had a visit to consultancy, I had asked him about it. And he said no need to keep that information about spouse.
Is there any solution to come out from this problem?
Thank you.
Maybe your lawyer was right and they really don't check any background and I'm just getting you nervous.
But since they have your wife's full name, date of birth, country of origin, if they want they can easily find her old application. And they may wonder why you didn't say anything. It's not background checking, it's on their system already.
Your application is from the end of July, so it is quite late to send a correction. I'd say you can contact your consultant and ask him to send an e-mail to CIC... or just wait and see. You will now in about two-three weeks time.
I used a lawyer myself, but I questioned them on several issues and made some changes on my application thanks to this wonderfull forum.
