I have a question regarding sponsorship of Parents and Grandparents. During the online application in January 2018 I filled the application with my old address. In Feb I moved to new place and used the same (new) address in the application package. I got the following email from CIC saying we need more supporting doc stating that same person lived at 2 places.
Specifically, the following information cannot be validated as the same:
Address
The name (or address) of the person invited to apply is:
*********** (Old address)
The name (or address) on the application submitted is:
************* (New Address)
Please submit additional documentation which demonstrates that the person who
was invited to apply and the person who submitted the application are the same
person.
Note that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) relies on a legal or
administrative decision made by the appropriate provincial and territorial authority as
evidence of a change of name. Therefore, the linking document must be issued by a
Canadian province or territory. In the case of a change in address, evidence must be
provided which demonstrates both the former and current address associated to the
person invited to apply.
My question is
Do I need an affidavit or notary from a lawyer showing proof of address like driver licence or bank docs?
Or can I simply write a letter of explanation myself and attach all the supporting document and send to cic?
