Hi Jamaicanadian. There are likely two spreadsheets you are interested in. The 2015 Outland Spousal (link below in my signature) and perhaps if there is a spreadsheet specific to your office (although the 2015 one allows you to filter by visa office).

To add yourself, you go to the very bottom, making sure you fill in the basics (date application sent, destination, visa office, medical date) and then every so often, the spreadsheet owner moves you up to the main list where you can still add dates as your application proceeds through the various steps.

Hopefully this helps.

Hello chilkootcee,

Thanks so much for your help. I'm using my phone and it's acting weird so I'm unable to add my info. I will try again. I'm so glad I came across this forum it's very helpful

My husband had his interview this morning and it all went good.Now we are in the next step and they are asking for a ARC form Authorization to Return to Canada. This is 400$ and takes some time...does anyone know currently how long it takes or has anyone read some posts about it? I cant seem to find anything. I cant wait anymore so I will go visit my husband and stay with him until we can come to canada together but just wondering time wise if it will be long.

Is this ARC due to Exclusion order?

Got my case notes today. The FBI check is attached which was my real concern as we sent it separately and...nothing else has been done.

I'm not surprised but it didn't stop me from being a tad disappointed.

 

[LN13]

Got a documents request today!

[ipoo]

Guys need your opinion, what should I give more info to them?

I am a Canadian Citizen, disable, gave my ODSP (Ontario Disability Support Program letter), Bank Statements, Credit Cards info, wrote the info about my intention to reside in Canada, wrote why I have to live with my family(as there is no one who can my family live with) even then I get this letter, now can you guys tell me what else should I send them? Any suggestion please?

PS. my family needs me, I can't leave them that's for sure.



Dear *****:

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada as a member of the Family
Class.
I have reviewed your application and all of the documents you submitted in support of it. It
appears that you may not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
I have determined that you may not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee
Protection Act because your sponsor does not appear to meet Section R130 of the IRPR.
The Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations state, in section:
R 130. (1) Subject to subsections (2) and (3), a sponsor, for the purpose of sponsoring a foreign
national who makes an application for a permanent resident visa as a member of the family
class or an application to remain in Canada as a member of the spouse or common-law partner
in Canada class under subsection 13(1) of the Act, must be a Canadian citizen or permanent
resident who
(b) resides in Canada.
R 130. (2) A sponsor who is a Canadian citizen and does not reside in Canada may sponsor a
foreign national who makes an application referred to in subsection (1) and is the sponsor’s
spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child who has no dependent
children, if the sponsor will reside in Canada when the foreign national becomes a permanent
resident.
You do not appear to meet these requirements because your sponsor is currently residing
outside of Canada. I therefore have concerns that they may not be eligible to sponsor you. I am
providing you with a final opportunity to provide evidence of your sponsor’s return to Canada or
their intention to return to Canada.

What extra docs did they ask you for?

The email asks for the RPRF fee (if you didn't already pay it), additional proof that sponsor lives in Canada or plans to return to Canada, medical, police certificates if not already provided, and if there's a change in status to your relationship (or if you had a kid).

It's a blanket email but usually comes a month or two before DM. Not who gets DM gets the email, so don't worry if you never receive it.

I rec'd a docs request email today. They wanted proof of sponsor's residence in Canada, sent them copies of our most recent utility bills. I also requested case notes last week, wonder if that's just a coincidence or if it motivated them to look at my file.

It's likely coincidence. Lots of others get the docs request email and have never ordered case notes. ;D

Dear ****** (Le français suit):

This is in reference to your application for a permanent resident visa, which is in progress at our office.


Your mailing address according to our records is indicated above. Please review it and advise us of any errors.


Has your family composition changed since our last correspondence?


· Have you married or divorced?
· Have you given birth or adopted a child?
· Do you intend to get married or divorced prior to becoming a permanent resident?
· Do you intend to give birth or adopt a child prior to becoming a permanent resident?

If any of these conditions apply, you must inform Case Processing Center – Ottawa (CPC-O) immediately:

CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

You will be asked to submit evidence such as a copy of the marriage, divorce, birth or adoption certificate or a letter advising when and where the marriage, divorce, birth or adoption is expected to take place. Any new spouse and/or children must be added to your application and be found admissible to Canada before your case is finalized.


Proof of Residence/Intent to Reside

We wish to ask you at this time to provide additional proof that your sponsor resides in Canada. This includes but is not limited to: pay stubs, T4 slips, utility bills, banking history, employment letters, lease agreements, etc. Driver's licences, Property tax assessments, Social Insurance or Health Insurance cards are not sufficient.

If your sponsor does not currently reside in Canada, please provide proof that he/she intends to reside in Canada. This includes but is not limited to employment letters, lease agreements, copies of correspondence with: potential employers, real estate companies, property rental agencies, health care agencies, insurance agencies, financial institutions, etc. Please provide as many indicators as possible as any single one of these may not be enough on its own to prove intent of residency. Driver’s licences, property tax assessments, social insurance or health insurance cards are not sufficient to show intent to return.


RPRF (If you have already paid the RPRF, please disregard)

We wish to remind you at this time to pay your Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF). You must pay this fee before a permanent resident visa can be issued. The RPRF will be refunded if the application is refused, if you withdraw your application or if you choose not to use your visa.

If you delay the payment of the RPRF, your security or medical results may expire, which would delay the issuance of your visas. We therefore encourage you to pay the RPRF as soon as possible, by following these steps:

· Go to the website: https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en

· Read the instructions on each page, and click “Continue” to proceed

· Select the “Immigration” link, followed by “Right of Permanent Residence Fee”

· You must pay this fee once for yourself as principal applicant

· You must also pay this fee for your accompanying spouse or common law partner, if you have one

· Enter the number of fee payments (1 or 2) in the box beside the fee of $490

· Click “Submit”

· Proceed to pay your fees by selecting “Pay” and then follow the instructions to pay with a credit card.


Once the payment process is complete, the web site will display your official receipt in PDF format.
You must send the receipt to CPC-O. For fastest service, please attach it to an email and send it to the address CPCO-Cost-recovery.CTDO-Recouvrement-frais@cic.gc.ca .

If you have already paid the RPRF, do NOT pay again.


Police Certificates

Please note that you must submit original police certificates for you and any accompanying dependents for all countries where the residence period has been six months or longer since the age of 18. If you are currently in possession of any police certificates, which were not submitted with your original application, please submit them to our office now. If you have already submitted your police certificates, do not apply for or submit new documents. We will contact you once your application has been reviewed by a visa officer.

If you are in the process of obtaining the required documents and have not yet received them, submit them to our office as soon as they are available.

For more information on how to obtain police certificates, including country specific requirements, visit; http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/index.asp

DO NOT SUBMIT SCANNED COPIES OF YOUR DOCUMENTS VIA EMAIL.

We require only original documents (for police certificates) and all documents must be accompanied by English or French translations.


CSQ

If you are destined to the province of Quebec, please provide a Certificat de selection du Québec from the Ministre de l’Immigration, Diversité, et Inclusion. Visit the following website for instructions: website: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/index.html

If you are NOT destined to Quebec, do NOT apply for/provide a CSQ.


**Medical examination. Please complete your immigration medical examination. If you have already passed your medical examination, please also send your medical examination form with the rest of your documents.



Your response to the above request is required within 45 days. Thank you for your immediate attention to these matters.


I sent these documents earlier. Why would they want MORE? I don't know what more to send? I sent a letter of intent, letters from my family offering both me (sponsor) and my husband (applicant) jobs and accommodations oil we get on our feet. Photo copies of jobs he is looking at. I have not been looking because I plan to be a stay at home mom in canada. What else can I send proving I intend to reside in Canada? ahhh...a little frustrating

 

[LN13]

I got the same letter.

I get the feeling it's just a "Hey, this is the next pile were going to go through, let's make sure they have the opportunity send us stuff before we start going through it and have to email 10 people individually about missing stuff in their file."

I think I'm sending them updated letters, some correspondence I have with people about moving and I've been planning on getting my email professionally redone but a business in Calgary to help me with job search when I get there so I'm going to get that moving as well.
