I am in a bit of fix and would really appreciate it if someone experienced in this matter posts a reply to it asap. I am outlining my situation below:
My wife is a Canadian PR and I am located in India (recently shifted there from US). So she is my sponsor and I am the principal applicant.
We have our entire package ready for spousal sponsorship outside Canada. The only issue that we came across with was the payment of fees.
My wife does not have a credit card. We ordered IMM5401 form online and it has been 3 weeks now but it has still not been delivered to her in Canada. So I did call the CIC and they told me that it's not necessary that only she has to make the payment. The payment can be made by anyone's credit card (it can be any family member or friend). So i paid the fees with my credit card.
The receipt that i received has my name pre-filled in the name section. This has got me confused and worried. I have read and heard that the receipt must contain sponsor's Information (in my case my wife who is Canadian PR).
Now i am not sure what to fill in following sections:
1. Name: Currently it has my name (since i made the payment). However should i erase it (using whitener) on the receipt and fill in my wife's name instead in this section (since my wife is the sponsor)?
2. Client Date of Birth: I guess it should have my wife's name on it who it my sponsor. Am i right?
3. Client ID: I guess it should have my wife's name on it who is my sponsor. Am i right?
4. Address: Whose address should it be? Sponsor's or the one who made the payment?
5. Postal Code: Whose Postal Code should it be? Sponsor's or the one who made the payment?
6 & 7. Area Code & Telephone Number: Whose phone number should it be? Sponsor's or the one who made the payment?
I will highly appreciate a quick reply.
Thanks.
