My application was returned and they wrote the following in the letter:

1) A completed page 3 of the generic application form for Canada 1mm 0008 for the person you are sponsoring

2) For all requested forms questions must be answered in full, details must be provided for every month year since the age of 18, do not leave any gaps or blanks, Write none in the box if the question is not applicable to you, all forms must be sign and dated,

theres nothing else requested

the form I got back is complete, it has the date and signature, but what i don't understand is where to include the details from 18 years of age..on a separate sheet of paper???

[i dont understand where because the IMM 0008 doesn't have that kind of a question anywhere that information is written in the background declaration form..and that info is there already and they haven't asked for anything else except page 3 of the IMM 0008 and since we dont have any dependants the page 3 is very small the only sections are the 1) the highest level of education, 2) number of years of education, 3) Current occupation 4) Intended occupation 5) and 3 questions about language detail]

so why have they sent back the entire thing..we painstakingly and thoroughly went over everything and it really hurts to have it returned and get further delayed.

I am applying to sponsor my husband in UK london, I am a canadian citizen and he is on a work permit in UK which expires in december 2012, our app was recieved on feb 15 2012, we would have been in second stage if this didnt happen. I talked with a lawyer and he said there could be other mistakes..is that possible? i mean do they identify one mistake at a time so if lets say there were three things missing the application would be sent back 3 times and correct each mistake one by one? or is the lawyer trying to break my confidence and inflate a minor issue so that i surrender the entire case and pay him to do it for me. iam really frustrated and need some help please..

It seems to me that they are referring to page 3 of IMM5669 - (Schedule A - Background/Declaration), based on the comment " ... since the 18th birthday of the applicant you are sponsoring". Are you applying 'inland' or 'outland'? Different set of forms required, our application is 'outland'.

Upon further review, I see that you are 'outland'. Try to rectify it yourselves first, however this lawyer will rectify it... you can also do yourself.

yes I understand that the info from 18 years of age is required in the background declaration form 5669 , and it is page 2, not page 3 of 5669 form, but the letter that has come back to me specifically says to complete another page 3 of the IMM 0008 and nothing about the 5669, and the officer has highlighted page numbers 1,2,4 and 5 but not page 3 of the IMM 0008, no other forms have the page numbers highlighted. I am reviewing all the info in the 5669 we submitted and everything is correct all the dates from 18 years of age are included and time is accounted for, nothing is left out and nothing about it has been mentioned in the letter either.

This is why I am confused...as they are asking to elaborating on info about another form while asking to complete a different form :mad:

Actually I have had a delay of 1 month in recieving this letter already because it was lost :eek: that is why iam getting more and more stressed out by the minute...

What exactly is the difference between inland and outland ? I think I am out land which would mean that my sponsored spouse isn't living in Canada he is living in London UK is that correct or does have to do something different to be living in a specific place in the UK itself?

thanks for the help

Yes there is an officer's name ..no actually just initials of the officer on the return envelope sticker
