I will be signing it today here in the Philippines as 2017-11-14. I am his principal applicant. My husband is my sponsor. I will send the document to his email though scanned copy so he can also sign rhe the documents too at the sponsor portion. So by the time he will print the form, its already 2017-11-15. What date will i put it? Is it nov 14 where i signed the document first or nov 15 when the time my husband will sign such document?
The signatures need to be original, so you need to actually mail the forms. Either date is fine. If you are unsure, you can add a short letter of explanation.

Ok thank you. I probably should send a written letter explaining that he is still connected to the company he is currently working. Really? The cic will not receive our documents if we sent it through scanned copy? That was our plan to have it scanned and will use it for sumbission to the visa office. Our returned documents are all original.

Signatures must be original. If the VO realizes they are scanned, you can expect your app to be returned. Risk is yours to take.

I will be sending the original documents to him this week. Thank you for opening this up because we thought a scanned copy is enough to submit the firms to the VO. I have also read some other discussions in this site regarding original signatures and all of you have the same advise. Thank you so much my friend. I really appreciated your help. May God bless you always.

Hello my friend. I have already filled up all the forms in our spousal visa application. As i went over with the documents, i was a bit confused on the form IMM0008 (generic information) on my childs personal detail since i have a daughter, 5 years old, who will also be coming with me. In the form, UCI was being asked. Do i leave it blank or just put N/A? She has no UCI since she forms part of my application.

Hi im about to submit our spousal visa application with my husband to the VO. However, there are some small confusions on the imm 5476 (use of a representative) on the type of application to use. I was just a bit confused on what to write? is it family class sponsorship or spousal sponsorship program? The other one is form imm 0008 (generic information) in the personal details of dependent child asking for UCI. Do i have to put N/A or just leave it blank? I am just so cautious on the best information to fill.up since we know that visa officers are so keen on the forms and one missing or errors found, application is refused and documents are returned. Hope to receive feedback from you guys. Need help. Thanks.

IMM5476 - spousal.

IMM0008 - always better to write N/A.

Hi, I am trying to sponsor my parents (mom and dad).
Just want to make sure about this:
"...... and all dependent children 18 years of age or older"
well, I have a sister of 30 years old who is not dependant (and lives back home too), does my parent need to mention her still on this form, even if she is not coming?

You really need to look at the instructions. The quote you are refrring to is only for who FILLS out the form. It has nothing to do with who must be mentioned on the form. The form clearly states that applicants must mention ALL children, not just dependents.

Hi everyone. Today cic sent me an additional documents request and it's IMM5406. But there's a catch in my case: I've got a blank space in front of "father". Everything was possible in Soviet Russia. Do I have to send my birth certificate with LoE attached to it or I'm doomed to pray for Putin and love communism till the end of the days cause I ain't got a father? Thanks in advance.

I’m pretty sure you can put “Unknown” in that form (if you really got no information about your father) and attach a letter of explanation along with a copy of your birth certificate which indicates it as well. It shouldn’t be an issue.

Never leave anything blank. Put Unknown and explain on a separate sheet.
