Use your checklist to make sure you send all the documents you need to submit:
For each item on the checklist, choose the situation that applies to you and check the correct box.
- Only submit documents that apply to your specific situation. We’ll contact you if we need more information.
- For any documents that are not in English or French, you must attach the following, unless your checklist specifies otherwise:
- a certified copy of the original document; and
- The English or French translation, and
- An affidavit from the person who completed the translation. See Translation of documents below.
Important notes about using the checklist:
- We’ll return applications with missing, incomplete, or unsigned forms.
- If there are one or more sections of your checklist which do not apply to you, write N/A or Not Applicable in the margins of each of these sections on your checklist.
- Check the country-specific requirements to see if you need to submit any original documents. If the country specific requirements tell you that you must submit an original document instead of a copy, you must submit the original or we will return your application. See below for more information about country specific requirements.
