Hi there,
I am a newbie here. I will be applying in August 2018. Is this the relevant group for discussion or is there a separate group for August 2018 applications.
If anyone can help me with this question -
The latest Document checklist (updated as of June 2018) asks a new question to the 'sponsor' at the beginning of the checklist -
"The person Iam sponsoring was declared as my spouse or partner and was already examined as a non-accompanying dependent when I applied for a permanent resident visa and did not receive an immigrant visa.(Note: If you have never applied for a permanent resident visa No)
Now, my understanding is it is asking if you were married before you applied for your own PR and your wife was declared as a non-accompanying dependent in your (meaning Husband's) PR application. But what if I was single at the time I received my PR and got married later? Obviously she wasn't part of my PR application. referring to words in the bracket, it says tick NO if you have never applied for a permanent resident visa. what does this mean by IF YOU HAVE NEVER APPLIED FOR A PERMANENT RESIDENT VISA? - Does it ask if I (the sponsor has never applied for a permanent visa) or if I have ever sponsored anyone for a PR visa?
I am confused if I should tick Yes or No.
Thanks!
