Hi all
I am sponsoring my parents and I have some questions as the website is not that clear for me.
I was in a common law relationship for few years and I have a baby that is three years old and she is Canadian. We decided to split and despite the fact that we are still under the same roof (we are selling the house soon) I am not sure if to consider her still a common law partner or not. We are in a separation process with lawyers etc. so I do not intend in fact to consider her still my common law partner and therefore I do not want to add her on the application. She is PR, she received it this year. I applied to sponsor her, but she also applied via skilled worker class and she got it that way, so I called and cancelled my sponsorship application.
1) Assuming that I put myself as a single, I do not have to add her anywhere in the application, and she is not under any of the previous undertakings as she became PR using her application and the spousal one is now cancelled. Correct?
2) As there is no official document for common law, I guess one can rely only on declarations so what should I consider the size of my family on the Financial Evaluation for this year? In my opinion we split officially in October this year , so should I add her or not?
3) Maybe for simplicity, as we are still under the same roof I should still consider her as a family member and add her? I guess that will be easier.
4) In that case we will be a party of 3: me her and our daughter. I will not use her as a co-signer so this may be the easiest solution. What do you think?
5) Now, I am sponsoring my parents so 2 people. I also have a brother here in Canada and he is 39 and he is Canadian so I do not have to add him anywhere correct?
6) I think there is a mistake on the financial evaluation form, in 3 A) where is says to put the number of people included in box #3 in the Generic Application. There if you look it asks precisely, how many members including you are in this application: so how many? Assuming I consider my common law partner? 5? Me her our daughter and my parents? But then in the Financial form in 3A I have to put only 2, right my parents??? Very confusing, why they say to use that line from the Generic Application here.
7) For number 6 in the FInanical application I need to put my daughter only correct?
Cool It is unclear to me if in that table that you pasted with the LICO, thos numbers are LICO +30%? Or should we add the 30%?
9) In the application to sponsor, question 6 (it was debated few times) but I do not agree with what you guys think. It says Relation to the principal applicant: It is the sponsor who completes this, so in my case I think it should be “child” as the sponsor is the child of the Principal Applicant, am I wrong?
10) Finally, it was also been asked but I want to double check: it is said that when you submit the application to submit the sponsorship application together with the PR application. So on top of those forms that I have mainly asked about, are there any forms for the PR application for my parents? Where should I find them?
11) Do they require me to submit now the medical and the police certificates?
I know that I have quite some questions, but I will really really appreciate if you can answer me to each. Thanks a lot
Good luck to all applicants
