Dear Friends
Below are some queries in which I am in need of your opinions, Other than question # 01 i believe rest can be cleared in brief answers.
Would be really thankful for your usual support:.
1. IMM0008 (page 2 or 5), I have input the details of my 01 year old daughter. There is a heading of "National Identity Document" in which they have asked if individual has any National Identity document.
My daughter has a "B" Form having her identity # (which will be her CNIC # once she turns 18) mentioned on it. Other than expiry date, it has every other requirement asked in the form.
My question is, should I consider B form as National Identity document?
B-Form is not an Identity Document. Children of preschool age may not be able to provide an identity document that includes their photo. In such cases, an explanation letter must accompany. You can choose YES and write her NADRA number written in B-form, Passport or FRC, but do write brief explanation that child is young and have no photo identification (other than xyz, whichever document you have)
2. In document check list IMM5533 (Page 4 of 10), Point # 02,"Authority to release personal information to a designated individual (IMM5475)".
In what scenario this form is required to be filled? or can it be ignored. I didn't find this form in application package given on cic website.
Ignore it. It's never used in almost all cases. You can use this form to disclose your application to 3rd-party, such as parents, friends, etc.
3. IMM5476 Use of Representative, Being the Sponsor I'll be dealing whole case, so my spouse will be filling this form in which she'll appoint me as her representative, There are certain details required in the form such as Company Name, Membership ID etc.
My question is that should i left this section blank completely or fill the relevant field such as mailing address, cell #.
Section B-7 will have your mailing address, post code, telephone and email address. Ignore fields (leave blank) which are not applicable to you.
4. IMM5546 (Military details) this form is not applicable on me. Should I fill it be writing N/A or can ignore the form completely by not making part of my application?
Tick box next to
MILITARY SERVICE and then tick
No in question below. Leave checkbox of "if you are providing military documents" empty.
5. Birth certificate Translation should be sent original.
You can either submit original or photocopy. Both are acceptable. I provided original 'certified' translations.
6. Police certificates are to be sent Original?? its not specified in checklist so i assume that photocopy is to be sent.
If you go through each both, it will state whether they want photocopy or original. With PCC, they have not used the word "photocopy". PCC's expire after SIX months. So, PCC itself was useless for me after that. So, I submitted original and put a sticky note saying "Keep it!"
7. PO Box is helpful?? do they send any requirements through hard copy?? in my immigration case whole correspondence was through email.
If they can't reach you online, only then they will forward their request/correspondence via post.
8. Application forms should be sent through mail or Courier service. which one is better or both are same?
Regards
Both are acceptable. Canada Post will use PO Box. Private Courier will use address without PO Box. No one is better or worse. They all eventually deliver application packages.
