IMM 1344 AND IMM 0008 ADOBE ACROBAT SIGNATURES

Hello,
I'm having a lot of trouble on IMM 1344 and IMM 0008 in terms of adding the signatures. Adobe Acrobat Reader allowed me to sign the rest of forms (such as IMM 5532 etc.) very easily but these two are the ones I'm having severe difficulty on. It says I have to create a digital ID to sign which I did and clicked sign on it (twice) but it wouldn't show up on the forms when I printed them. Also, I edited the pdf to enter the signatures( on a different website) and when I re-opened on Adobe Acrobat it told me the document had been modified and erased the signatures off of those two forms. It won't allow me to send the forms for signatures unless I pay an annual fee.

This is the last step in applying for immigration and I've searched everywhere online and can't seem to find an answer. If someone could help I'd be absolutely grateful.

Thanks,
Amna

Only original signatures are accepted.

You cannot digitally sign the forms.

But it let me sign the other ones. What if my spouse is not in the same country as me? How will I get them signed?
Again, all signatures must be original. If you submit a form that's digitally signed, you should expect to receive your application package back unprocessed.

You must complete and print all of the forms and then courier/mail them to your spouse outside of Canada. Your spouse must then sign them and courier/mail them back to you. Once you have signed the forms as well - you can then submit the application.

Just fill the forms on the computer and email them to your spouse. Your spouse wil have to print and sign them in ink (whenever their signature was required) and then mail/courier them to you so you can sign them in ink too. No digital or scanned signatures are accepted, they have to be in ink that’s for sure.

One question....
Parents are PR, child is not. father travels to canada and sponsors child. Mother stays back with child in india.
So in the application forms, should mother sign as a co-signer or not necessary?
