May I ask why CIC ask for proof of co-habitation? What kind of proof did they request?

So they would know if you and your sponsor is currently living together. In my opinion this is important proof of having a genuine relationship. Any documents that will prove that you live in the same address. Utility bills, drivers licenses, Joint bank accounts, insurances, even package deliveries.

Hope this helps.

My wife out of status near 3 years now, we applied late last August, just got AIP today. Can apply for owp now though expecting the app to finalize fast now so no point paying the extra dollars now.

From what I have seen from other out of status apps it doesnt slow anything down, people still landing around 11 to 13 months.

That sounds good. Did you guys have tp provide extra documents during the process? Do you know if she'd have to leave the country when she gets the decision? I am the one without status, I also had to go to CBSA for an interview.

No we haven’t been asked for any extra documents thus far anyway, not been asked for RCMP fingerprinting either.

So far we haven’t encountered Cbsa thankfully, and now we have AIP we should be safe now I think.
