Thanks @legalfalcon . I was wondering if the application would be revisited and evaluated again if the spouse is already a PR holder residing in Canada, in which case there should not be the need to add him to my application.
The application will not be reassessed. Only your spouse's information will be added to the application. If your spouse would have been accompanying you then her meds, pcc, and passport along with the forms and fee would have to be filed. Since your spouse is already in Canada, once you provide that information, you will only need to provide your spouse's PR details, and your marriage certificates.
@legalfalcon I have attached marriage certificate, wedding photos, spouse's PR card copy, spouse's passport copy and his driver's license in the case specific enquiry. I am hoping that the updation would not follow the standard timelines required to add spouse to an application and would be quicker.
I have never seen the documents cancelled when informing IRCC of marriage with a Canadian citizen/PR spouse. The COPR is the exact same, as the spouse is not a dependent, so there is zero need to re-issue them.
@canuck_in_uk I have a job offer that I need to join in couple of days. Since I got to know of the visa cancelation only from the agent and haven't received any explicit communication about it from cic, would it be okay to travel on my existing CoPR and visa?
Honestly, up to you if you want to try. As I said, I've not seen documents cancelled in this situation before. If the COPR has been cancelled, CBSA will refuse your landing.
The basic point is that when you add a spouse to your application, then all family members (PA & dependents) have to be Medically and criminally. Also they all have to go through the security checks.
It seems quite impossible to fit all the requirements in 1 placeholder with a max limit of 5mb. Especially with the 15 pics they ask for.
Hi,
Not sure i am still sorting out the documentation if didnt fir then we have to request to open more placeholders. Some applicants managed to upload everything in one placeholder after compressing the documents.
After you add your spouse to your application, your spouse will have to go though medicals, criminality and security, which takes time. Each application is different. It can takes 4-6 months for the application to be approved after you add your spouse.
Hi @mayurd Could you please post the sequence of events/ communications that took place from the time you raised a case specific enquiry till date - for instance the date when you submitted the case specific enquiry, the date when your PR visa and CoPR were cancelled, if you received any communication from CIC before/ after cancelation of your CoPR, etc. I need to understand the sequence to see the difference between adding a spouse who is already a Canadian PR holder vis-a-vis adding of a person who is not a Canadian PR holder as a spouse.
By the way, in form imm 5669 where it asks for the spouses mother names
Hi Shifu, my PR visa was valid till Oct 27, 2018, I dint land, got married and submitted my spouse documentation by July 30 2018. Medicals passed by Aug 2, 2018. But after that till now, my application is still under process. My visa also expired. I dint get any communication from CIC to submit PR & COPR for cancellation. It is still with me only. I think only after getting new PPR mail for myself and my spouse, they will cancel and re-issue new PR & COPR for both of us. I sent mail through web form but they said my application is still under process. I dint order any GCMS notes yet. Will wait another month and see.
Ans a)I filled it as per national identity card because in my country the name on ID gets on the passport as well. And the name on ID comes from birth certificate.
