Hi there, I think you should still mention your ex.. that is my interpretation of the below given. Hope it helps.Hello Everyone, when I sent my interest to sponsor back in 2020 I was married. 4 months later after sending my interest to sponsor I separated from my husband, and I have been separated since (but im not legally divorced) so I am confused if I should put the information of my ex in the forms when it asks for "spouse/common law partner" information. any comments on this?
Hi there, me again.. no you can omit them all. Just that your parents won't be able to sponsor them (I think I read it somewhere it categorically stating that) but they cannot do so for the next five years anyway. A sponsored person cannot sponsor for 5 years. Hope it helps!last and final question! my dad has 9 siblings, half of them are estranged and the other half my dad doesn't even know their full names or dates of birth - must every single sibling be included even if there is no interest in sponsoring them to come to canada? we dont talk to that side of the family lol.
Hi everyone,
Finally received an invite this year. Had a few queries for discussion, hoping someone can help.
1. Parents likely won't be able to do the online application themselves through the Permanent Residence Portal. Most likely, I will be helping them. Should I fill it up as if they are filling it in or should I do so as a representative through the Representative Permanent Residence Portal? Even though I am their sponsor (their child), I believe I can be their representative as well. Thoughts/ suggestions?
2. If I fill in as a representative, I imagine it should be unpaid? My confusion - Invitation letter only talks about paid representative, though the representative form (imm 5476e) has options of uncompensated (friend or family member) or compensated (in good standing/ professional). I feel I should fill in as unpaid representative to keep it clean. Thoughts/ suggestions?
3. Don't recall if I added my spouse as a sponsor in the interest form of 2020. But either way, should be fine if we want my spouse to be included as a sponsor now. Thoughts/ suggestions?
4. Marriage Certificate for parents - will get an affidavit from court + parents mentioned in home country's previous passport. Thoughts/ suggestions?
5. Mother's name change post marriage - will get an affidavit from court documenting the name change. Thoughts/ suggestions?
6. Below may apply to many - please check.
My status changed from PR to citizen, after submitting interest in 2020. Am thinking of submitting my Canadian citizenship proof + birth country's cancelled passport (which was valid in 2020). Thoughts/ concerns? Refer from guide below.
You must include a copy of the same status in Canada document you submitted with your Interest to Sponsor form in 2020 with your application to sponsor your parents and grandparents. Upload your status in Canada document to your online application under the section “Supporting documents.”
If you submitted a passport, other than a Canadian passport, with your Interest to Sponsor form in 2020, please submit a copy of the passport you submitted and one of the documents listed above to confirm your status in Canada.
Thanks
