Are you sponsoring your grandparents as well ? I think parent's birth certificate is only needed in that case. Please correct me if I'm wrong.We got affidavit from India stating marriage date, but i don't have anything for birth certificate not sure, if this helps you
I am sponsoring my parents and filling out the application forms on their behalf. I am a little confused on what is the correct way for me to assign myself as their representative? My understanding is I should be doing the following:1. It doesn't matter which parent is the PA.
2. No, it isn't an issue. You don't have to use a co-signer if you don't want to.
3. It is generally easier to make yourself their representative, as you can then deal with IRCC on their behalf.
@canuck_in_uk: Considering the the Guide 5772 says the following, do you still think adding a valid date to get the form to validate successfully is a good idea? As far as I understand, this form does not print a barcode page even when validated successfully.Put a random date like 1900-01-01 and explain in a separate sheet.
If you do not assign yourself as their representative, you will not be able to inquire about the status of their application. If your parents feel comfortable handling all correspondence sent by IRCC, then you don't need to assign yourself as their representative.For sponsoring Grandparents its mentioned as Birth certificate of parents is needed.
So in absence of Birth certificate of my mom what can be submitted .... kindly advise
also do we need to fill use of representative by signing up yourself or not needed
That's my understanding as well. Although on form IMM5406 - Additional Family Information, I filled in their email address. Not sure if this matters. The most important ones are IMM008 and IMM5476, IMO. These will be used to determine where all the correspondence is sent.I am sponsoring my parents and filling out the application forms on their behalf. I am a little confused on what is the correct way for me to assign myself as their representative? My understanding is I should be doing the following:
1. Fill out IMM5476 with the information of my dad (Principal Applicant) in section A and my information in section B.
2. Enter my email address in place of my parents in IMM0008 and IMM5406 (even though my parents have their own email addresses).
3. Tick box next to question 8 "Use of representative (IMM 5476)" in IMM 5771 (document checklist).
Does that sound correct?
This makes sense to me. Thanks.That's my understanding as well. Although on form IMM5406 - Additional Family Information, I filled in their email address. Not sure if this matters.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
That's right. Email and mailing address are of the representative. Residential address is where parents are currently residing.This makes sense to me. Thanks.
Also, to clarify, I am entering my mailing address in IMM0008 for the principal applicant while writing my parents' residential address (since that is what the form indicates for representatives).
I'm going by the reviews experience of others, who have said they put a random date to get the form to validate and had no issues. If IRCC days the form doesn't need to be validated, then you can follow their instructions.@canuck_in_uk: Considering the the Guide 5772 says the following, do you still think adding a valid date to get the form to validate successfully is a good idea?

Note: If you do not know the complete date of birth or if the date is in the 1800s, please use a “*” (star sign/asterisk) to fill in the spaces for the unknown year, month or day. The missing information can be added by hand however the form cannot be validated.
In my case, I only know the year of birth of my grandparents (not even sponsoring them). I entered just the year in the date field, and the form auto filled Jan 1, <year>. I'm thinking of just submitting it as it is, perhaps with a note attached.I'm going by the reviews experience of others, who have said they put a random date to get the form to validate and had no issues.
