Well the regional guide for Latin America says on page 2

"If your documents are not in English or French, include an accurate translation with a copy of the originals. Failure to do so could result in substantial processing delays."

so I would say anything that you are sending, including your marriage certificate, needs to have a translation attached if it is not in English or French.

PS the guide also says : Send photocopies only of all other documents, unless instructed otherwise. So there is no need to send the original certified official copy. You may want to take another look at the Latin America region guide.

Hi wooera!

Huron's right. You should follow exactly what the guide says. A simple photocopy of the original marriage certificate and a certified translation of it will suffice.

Yes I put everything (Sponsor app, applicant app, additional proof, medical, police report, applicant immigration photos, etc) in the order of the check list and sent it FedEx from here in Mexico to Mississauga. The whole packaged weight 1.8KG and everything was in there.... In our case the sponsor and the applicant are living in Mexico together for more than 6 years. If your sponsor is in Canada then you should send your part of the application back to you sponsor so that they can send it to Mississauga.
