If I write anything on those barcode documents, do I have to print them off again I wonder?

Some of mine are 4 pages and 1 is 5 pages re the translations and notarizations. Option C was almost exactly 4 weeks here.
I think i'll print then again to be sure.

Yes, I would do this. It's just a lot cleaner and easy to do.

Next Tuesday is my departure date and they are disconnecting my internet this weekend. I don't know when I'll be back online after next week, so good luck to you guys.

On the Sponsorship Evaluation form, regarding question 2, I am going to sellect both 'B' (employed) and 'C' (self employed).

1. Can I do that?

2. For the self employed, do I have to provide any documentation about that?

As for question '3', my 'net income' would have to be 2 B and C income combined, correct?

Online Fee Payment: Once I paid the fee online I received two things:

1) A receipt immediaely popped up stating the following on the bottom of the receipt:

Please print two copies of this receipt, send one to Citizenship and Immigration Canada and keep one
for your records. If you have chosen to do your payment through your Online Application, you do
NOT need to send a copy of the receipt to CIC.

2) An automatic e-mail with a pdf receipt. The body of the e-mail stated:

Attached to this e-mail is a copy of your official receipt for the payment of Citizenship and Immigration fees. Please print this receipt and attach a copy of the receipt to your application.


* I printed one off to include in the package. Wife is at Severance Hospital right now doing the medical. Have arranged for UPS to come to our door 300PM Monday. Will be boxing the paperwork up tonight! Then having a cold beer! I will sleep better tonight after 3 months of PR !


Thanks Rob,Bartjones, and CanNZ (and others) for this thread. I'll update my "milestones" as they come in! ;D

I don't know if you have to but i'd say it would be a good idea to include it for proof.

Fee Receipt: There is a fillable area and one being "Client ID". I wasn't sure so found this on CIC site:

What is my client ID?
Your client ID, also referred to as a UCI, appears on all documents you get from Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). It is an eight-digit number that looks like this: 0000-0000.

If you are applying to CIC for the first time, you will not yet have a client ID. If so, and you are filling out a form that asks for one, write “Not Applicable” or “N/A” in the space provided.

If you are applying online and the form does not allow you to input “N/A,” leave the space blank
