I have tried to google these questions and I find the actual official website to be inefficient when trying to find information.
I am doing the family class sponsorship application. My significant other will be sponsoring me to live there, he is Canadian, I am an American. Background information: I was denied access into Canada about 8 or so months ago over a silly misunderstanding on my part where I had accidentally over stayed (edit: I just learned the term is I guess called flagpoling, I had no idea, lol), my border guards told me I just had to stay out of the country, living and working for 6 months before I could come back, so that time has lapsed. I was previously a university student and graduate from a Canadian institution and I have worked in Canada.
Question one: I cannot find my UCI number, I have previously lived in Canada before as a Student and had a work Visa. The work visa was left in Canada, I no longer have the student one. When filling the application out, what do I do if I do not have that number? Is there a way for me to find it?
Question two: How will I know if I need an interview for my application? Will it be before I send in the application that I find out or after?
Question three: How do I know which office to process the application at? This is question 4 on the sponsored partner generic form.
Question four: Do I do my portion of the application and documents and then send it to my sponsor and have him send the whole thing as a single package?
Question five: Do I do my medical testing after he sends it or before? (The physician I will be going to uses something called E-Medical.)
Question six: How do I know if I am in the e-medical system? I was in the Canadian health care system previously but I am guessing E-Medical is different? How do I apply into it? How do I even find information on it??
Question seven: What are acceptable national identity documents other than a passport or is a passport "good enough"?
Thank you all for your time and answers, I really REALLY appreciate it. These applications can be highly anxiety inducing. :'(
