I did step by step instructions on what you said, and still no luck in locating our file. I even send a web form and all they replied with was reasons why it probably isn't working like wrong information. I know all information I entered is correct.

hmm, It had happened to me a few times as well. Try again. Try three of these. But I think there's a limit for the number of tries within 24 hours.

Also, this.... One of these should work!

Adding a space trick didn’t work for me. It’s important that you have a copy of the IMM0008 form for reference. Because I sponsored my spouse, I selected Permanent Residence as the category->then Family Class(Spouse) for the subcategory->then I selected Application number and Family name for the details I will be providing (include the F for the application number and the Family Name should be the Applicant’s Last Name exactly as it is as how you typed it in the form cause it’s case sensitive, in my case it was all caps e.g. SMITH) ->For Applicant’s Personal info, I selected Passport then filled up passport number, date issued and expiry date, again exactly the same as it is on the form or in his passport ->Select the province and city/town the applicant intend to live in from the drop-down menu and it should match the details in the form->current marital status should be Married and lastly, number of family numbers I typed in was 2 (that includes me/the sponsor and my husband/principal applicant) unless you have kids or you have dependents included in the application NOTE: I didn’t add any space at the end of each detail in fields without drop-down menu. Don’t forget to hit the search button once your finished filling up the fields.

AOR received today

May 6 applicant

Also not able to link to gckeys using any of the above methods. I’m going to give it 24 hrs and try again. I’ve heard many times where the app will not link for the first few days so I’m not going to panic yet

Good luck to all those still awaiting AOR! Hopefully they start picking the pace up a little like the last few months!

 

[Rich4bright]

Finally got AOR today. Application received on May 6th. Thank God

Hello friends,

Need suggestion as all of you have applied.I am a Canadian citizen willing to sponsor my spouse and a child( 10 years old)living outside of canada. I have couple clarification on forms to be filled.

1) Form IMM1344: Do i have to fill two separate forms for my spouse and child? There is no space to provide two names in a form.

2)IMM 008 dependent : Do we have to fill this to provide information about our child. We only have one child

3) On photographs for application, I am providing four photographs as per specifications. Do we need to mention anything on the back of photographs

Please suggest.

Thanks

Warm Regards,

1 is correct only in-case if just your spouse is applying and has no dependent children. You are not part of this application as you already are PR/Citizen. This information is mentioned in Spouse Visa Application Detailed Guide-line on CIC website
