Hi,

I'm sponsoring my common law partner from France. I have been living here with him for the past 2 years.
Do I still need to include my option C print out in the aplication package?

My first year in France I did not work, and I will be paying my taxes here only later this year in may, so I don't have a french equivalent for NOA yet. Is this a problem? Do I need to include a letter explaining the situation.

Also I wanted to know, to provide Proof of Employment, is a copy of my contract sufficent or do I need to include a letter from my employer.

That's all for now... any input is really appreciated. :)

This passage is from the checklist form on the IMM5941E,

To obtain this printout free-of-charge from the Canada Revenue Agency, call 1 800 959-8281. If you do not provide this printout, provide an explanation on a separate sheet.

All you need to do is explain it why you can't , provide option C form

For the proof oIf you are able to provide both a letter and contract paper it is better , otherwise a certified copy of the contract will be suffice,

The 1 800 number probably will not work outside North America, so OP should make a call collect phone call at this number: 1-613-940-8495

It will not be possible for you (or necessary) to obtain an Option C printout from CRA since you have stated that you have been living overseas for the last two years and probably have not filed income tax in Canada. The Option C is only available for income tax filed for the previous year, so in your case it will probably not apply.

You still need to submit an explanation of why the Option C printout cannot be included, so it's as simple as writing in a separate sheet that you've resided in another country for the previous two years and that you have not filed income tax in Canada, if that's your case.
