Hi Guys,

I am preparing my spousal sponsorship package Outland.
With the new checklist that has come out, it has been asked to provide a max of 10 pages and a Reminder is put in, that all documents has to be translated to either English or French.

Now my question is I have more than an year of chat history between me and my sponsor and that too in our native language, if I translate it to English then it comes to be somewhere around 300 pages & i have additional 50 pages of call details. Can somebody tell me how I can provide these details?

How you guys are providing data in such situation?

Hi Prakruti, what we (my spouse and I) did was to pick conversations that shows the flow of time. We have at least 3 years of conversation, so we picked something from 2014, 2016, 2017. (The gaps are there because we have photo proofs and a timeline of what we did for those times.)

As for what kinds of conversation, it could be something as simple as "I'm going to pick you up for dinner" or "what should we eat for lunch". Of course, if it helps your case, it could be something big like wedding planning, trip planning...etc. I believe, as what I've read on the forums is that they just want to know you have been in contact with your sponsor throughout the relationship. We Skype video a lot, so I prepared pages of Skype history showing that we've made calls to each other.

We also included the context of the chat (sometimes it's not obvious what we're talking about) on a separate piece of paper to help the officer understand. Our take is that, if we show these conversations to other people, would they come to the same understanding that we have a strong relationship going on in light of other evidence present.

I hope this helps!

Hello,
I sent in my application on June 1st, application was received on June 2nd. I recently moved to a new address. I have not received an AOR yet. How can I update my address to IRCC? Please advice.

Thanks

Chats don't have to be translated. I printed 10 pages double sided from the date we met, reduced the font so i can squeeze in atleast 10 days worth of chat. This is whatsapp. You can email it to yourself and then open the text file in word or notepad. As for the call history, i took screen shots and printed that as well, above the 10 page limit. Hope this helps you decide.

Hello everyone I'm pleased to be here!

Well, I would suggest to translate chat into English or French.. CIC guideline states that anything written in other than English or French needs to be translated into English or French... The whole purpose of sending these 10 pages of conversation is to prove our relation to officer and if he doesn't understand our native language then how is he going to understand our relation...? (However, I strongly believe that officer don't read these pages thoroughly and these pages don't put much weight as proof since anybody can write/edit them in word/notepad... ) Hence for a safe side I would translate it to English and that's what I did. One of my friends applied through ICCRC regulated lawyer and that lawyer made my friend to translate everything in English...!! So Better safe than sorry..

Hi Sebishh and welcome! You had to register for the text msg and send those specific bar codes along with your application. Now you just have to wait for AOR1. Anyway the text msg doesn't guarantee anything other than the fact that your app in their mailroom.

Hello Everyone, I sent my application though Canada Post Xpresspost services Mailed on June 4th, suppose to reach by June 7. Canada post has no record if the package was delivered and I havent got any update from CIC if they receive it in mail room. I have escalated through Canada post and they are unable to track it saying they sometime get issue from CIC. and it could be delivered.
As I am not sure what should I do. Should I send another package or wait for my luck. When I called the IRCC they mentioned that they are currently process application which are received on May 16th 2017. Any advise ? Thank you !!
