Hi All.

I applied for my Canada Work Permit in 2016 and got approved and have been living here since 2016 on work permit. Recently I applied for PR and submitted the family details there. However, after submitting my application I realized that the DOB of both my parents were incorrect in the form which I used to apply the Visa back in 2016. So, there is a discrepancy in what I submitted for PR compared to what was submitted when i applied for Visa back in 2016. Will this be an issue? Please advise on what to do now.

Thanks. I am worried that if they compare it to the ones that I had provided 4 years back as it will be confusing for them.

Thank you so much. They don't have passport yet and have the national identification document. But in future their passport will be based on this document.

Yes make sure you put correct dates which matches their identification documents because you have to sponsor them
In future. Just add a small LOE with application about DOB .This is small issue, don’t worry.

Hello, I’m pr in Canada. My brother is applying for student visa. With his documents everything is according to my parents documents like passport and birth certificates but I have some spelling mistakes on my parents name. He will put my name in his application. Will it cause any problem for me from immigration as parents spelling name is mismatch?? Please reply

Hi,
I am a open work permit holder with 1 year experience in Canada. My fiance came to Canada on a closed work permit through their company and we got married eventually. My husband hasn't completed 1 year experience yet, but I was planning to add him in my CEC PR application.
1) Do we both have to be eligible for CEC to complete the application?
2) Does he have to apply separately for PR or can I add him as a dependent who is already in Canada?

Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much!

No you both don’t have to be eligible for pr . Either one who is eligible can apply. You must have to add your spouse in your application. There is no choice. Also if you both are eligible you both can apply but still you guys have to list each other in your applications.
