Hello all,
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I received an e-mail from my visa office (Manila) today, let me share some excerpts from it:
"This refers to your application for a Canadian Visa. Please see attached letters and forms regarding additional requirements for the processing of your application. Kindly read and follow the instructions promptly.
This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which was received at the Embassy of Canada in Manila on 22Jan2013.
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.
IMPORTANT:
Additional Document/Information Requirements at This Time
In order to continue processing your application, we require the following information and/or documents:
• Fully Completed Appendix A (attached) for you and each of your family members, whether accompanying you to Canada or not. Passport details are not required for any family member who is not accompanying you to Canada. (Each person should complete his/her own form.)
• Completed Additional Family Information form (IMM5406) for yourself, bearing your signature and must be dated.
• Original Passport(s) for you and each family member who will accompany you to Canada
To ensure the timely processing of your application, the document(s) and information we have requested must be provided to us within forty-five (45) days of the date of this letter."
My questions are as follows:
- In the Appendix A itself, the instructions read, "Please complete the following information for YOU AND ALL YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS, whether accompanying or not. We do not need the passports nor passport numbers of non-accompanying family members." In the e-mail today, it says each person should complete his/her own form of the Appendix A.) So does that mean I need to have my parents and siblings each sign one??
- I understand that I have to fill out the IMM5406 form myself, as I am the one being sponsored, correct?
- And finally, they are asking for my original passport, but it seems that they still need more documents to process my application so then no decision has been made yet. What does the passport request mean?
Thank you in advance for helping me out!
