Hello all,
On October 15, 2022 IRCC sent me PGP invitation email as I applied in October 2020 and given me time until December 24, 2022 to submit the Online application through their Online Portal. I have few questions related to the application:
1. During my expression of Interest in 2020, I entered the name of my Mother only (Principal Applicant) and didn't mention the name of my Father anywhere in the expression. The e-mail/letter that the IRCC sent to me has NO name of mother printed on it anywhere but instead of that the e-mail/letter is referred to me only as Sponsor. So my question is: If they didn't mention name of any of my parent on the letter as it only says "parents", Can I consider that this letter talks about both parents regardless to which parent name I had mentioned during the expression time and If I want, Can I include my Father's name in the application now along with my mother as dependent? How should I proceed with it?
2. Let's say If I'll be allowed to add my Father name at this stage in the application along with my mother(principal applicant), Should I fill separate application for both parents or only ONE? IMM 0008 forms and any other?
3. Which Taxation Year CRA Notices I have to provide to them If I expressed interest in 2020?
4. My parents are married but they don't have their Marriage Certificate as the marriage was never registered back in years. It will be bit hard to apply one at this stage as my mother is visiting me here in CANADA until next year. What would be my option? Can we fill Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union (IMM 5409) form for them as even though they were married traditionally but their is no legal document available and marriage was never registered in those times.
5. In form Schedule A-Background (IMM 5669), As both of my parents are retired now and didn't work from last 10 years and they are asking to provide their personal history since the age of 18 in their case. Does this apply to the principal applicant only or also applies on my Father too (Not sure if he can be considered as a dependent or not?).
6. For DEPENDENT's they have different meaning i.e someone who is entirely dependent on the principal applicant i.e. any kind of disabilities, medical reasons or financially dependent etc. Then how to enlist the other Parent in the application?
Appreciate and Thanks in advance for your time and Inputs for all my above concerns.
