This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which was received at the Embassy of Canada in Manila on 27 August 2012.
A file has been created with the application number noted above. Please ensure that you quote this application number in any future correspondence with our office.
At the end of this document is a request for additional documentation required within 45 days.
Once you have complied with this request, if any additional information or documentation is required to assess your application, we will contact you or your designated representative.
Please note that the documentation requested in this letter is required even if you receive a subsequent letter from our office asking for additional documentation.
Due to limited resources dedicated to processing the thousands of applications currently in process, we are unable to respond to requests for status updates on your file if they fall within the average processing times.
Interview
You are not required to present yourself in person at the Embassy unless you are specifically requested to do so or specifically convoked to an interview. A decision will be made by an officer regarding whether or not an interview is reasonably required in due course. At this time, no interview has been scheduled.
If an officer determines that an interview is required, you will be notified at a later date. You will be notified in writing of any requirements for your interview, if required, prior to the date of the interview, and you will be provided with further instructions at that time.
Change in circumstance
Please advise by fax or email if there is a change in your personal circumstances, or the personal circumstances of any of your family members. This might include situations such as the birth of a child, a marriage, a legal separation, annulment, or divorce. (See our contact information below.)
You are required to report any changes in family composition for members of your family (whether accompanying you to Canada or not) without delay. This includes situations in which your or one of the children included on your application has become the parent of a child.
Exclusion: Unexamined Family Members
Please be advised that paragraph 117(9)(d) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations excludes from future sponsorship any foreign national who is not declared/examined at the time his/her prospective sponsor applies for and obtains permanent residence. If you (or any of your family members) fails to declare and present for examination any family member as defined by the Regulations, then you (or your family member) will not be able to sponsor that undeclared family member at a later date as a member of the family class.
Subsection 1(3) of the Regulations defines "family member" in respect of a person as (a) the spouse or common-law partner of the person; (b) a dependent child of the person or of the person's spouse or common law partner; and (c) a dependent child of a dependent child referred to in paragraph (b). Please consult section 2 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations for the definitions for "Common law partner" and "dependent child".
All family members, whether or not they are accompanying you to Canada, MUST be declared and presented for examination to assess whether they are admissible to Canada. A false declaration on your IMM5406 (Additional Family Information form), any failure to declare a family member, or failure to present a "family member" for examination may be found to constitute misrepresentation and may render you inadmissible to Canada.
Notification in Writing
You must also inform us in writing of any
•Change of address, including change of e-mail address (for any family member including children who may have a school address as well as a home address)
•Change or cancellation of immigration representative; or
•Request for withdrawal of your application.

Zadel kung may attacnment yung inemail nila syo possible yun lang muna kelangan nila kasi maaaring iba iba ang hingin sa ating request. Ang hinihingi sa amin e yung appendix A at ska passport. Si Samjo naman may dalwang attachment hinihingan pa sila ng mga photos. Si blessedalaine naman lima pang requirments hinihingi. Depende siguro sa kailangan muna nila. Pero kung walang attachment yun aba'y nakakalito nga yan email ka ulit. I kaw bga ang sponsor? Subukan mong mag fax at isama mo sa fax yung ineemail nila syo pra makita nila. Baka bibigyan nila ng pansin yun kasi lalabas yun sa fax machine nila. Pagka kasi email at nakita nilang galing sa mga nagiinquire malamang di na nila papansinin kasi sobrang busy ang mga yun pra mag check pa ng email. Kaya yung ibang nagiinquire sumasama ang loob dahil di sila tumutugon. Subukan mo ang fax wala namang mawawala, bilang kathread mo dito ito yung naiisip ko na baka makatulong syo.
