Hi, I recently received our first copy of GCMS notes. They made a notation regarding my previous marriage and are also recommending that my husband attend an interview. I had supplied them with marriage/divorce dates and the divorce certificate when we sent our application and was not expecting them to have any further in depth questions pertaining to that relationship.

My husband is of course aware of my previous marriage, nothing is a secret and he will also have a copy of my court affidavit, I just don't think its fair to him to have to answer questions like when I met my ex-spouse, the date we separated, the reasons our relationship did not work out, etc.. He will have enough with having to satisfy whatever else they want to know about our relationship without having to clarify my past.

As opposed to my husband having to answer detailed questions about my previous relationship/divorce, I was hoping to send them a copy of my court affidavit that explains everything. I went to the courthouse today to get a certified copy of the affidavit. Is there any way to pro-actively upload/send it to them now (Paris office V/O) or are we only able to send additional documentation when requested to do so. I would like to give them the opportunity to review it in advance now while they are working on our file rather than on the spot at his interview, which will probably take place in a few months.

Any insight is appreciated :)

Sure. You can always send more info. It's usually done via a Case Specific Enquiry (CSE; http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp ).

Sorry to hear they recommended an interview. Was more than one officer recommending it? Usually it takes two.

That said, they can ask anything. He can always say he isn't sure though...

Perfect thank you so much! I will do that then. I couldn't figure out how to do it in My CIC without having been asked. I would feel better trying to deal with any concerns upfront if possible. I only saw the recommended interview comment made once in the notes. We have not been notified of an interview as of yet. We applied in August, sent for notes at the end of December and just got those. I will send for them again maybe next month see if there is anything else in there worth worrying about.

In the enquiry can I attach the documents or is it a just request for permission and instructions to send the information?

Yup. Just before you submit your note.
