Address Change

Since submitting my application in January, I have bought a house with my husband in downtown Toronto. My mailing address at CIC is still my in-laws' house in Mississauga - they currently live there and check the mail regularly. Wondering if changing my address on CIC's website would cause any delay to my application? Or if it is at all necessary?

Also, would it be beneficial to inform CIC that I have bought a house to show my husband and I are joint owners of a property, thus confirming the strength/legitimacy/etc of our relationship?

1. it won't necessarily delay your application. however, cic is known to not update address information even after it's been changed online and through a case specific inquiry, so you will still want to keep an eye out on the mail at the old address - it's good your inlaws check it regularly. there IS a chance the approval will mistakenly go there.

2. yes, and no. while it will help prove relationship validity, it's usually not recommended to send new information to CIC unless it's specifically requested. the officer may not need the extra supporting material, so it's definitely worth keeping it handy in case they request additional proof down the road. there are people who send in additional proof without being prompted and don't have any issue or delay, so really it's up to you if you feel your application needs the additional info.

Quick question. My ex and I were not married. He is happy for me to take our son as a dependant when i emigrate. How can i 'prove' this? Since there was no divorce, there was no custody agreement - we've always just sorting it between us and never done anything legal or in writing. I know i have to show evidence of his agreement but not sure how to do this?
get him to sign a declaration form for non-accompanying parent and have it notarized. Also, tell him to execute a parent's affidavit of custody, make sure that in that affidavit he is transferring sole custody and control to you... I would contact a family lawyer for this matter to be safe. This is what I just did, the affidavit is on the way already, I will send it to cic as soon as I get it. and yes, the cic required me to submit a copy of legal custody papers, since there were no custody papers made from the court ( we mutually agreed for what is best for the child without going thru any court proceedings...), this is what I have done. I called CIC first prior to the execution of the affidavit, and they said yes, the affidavit is alright , plus Include a cover letter explaining your circumstances

An application for permanent residency does not give you any status, much less implied status. Only the OWP that goes along with inland applications grants status.
 
hello everyone :) I would like to know does anybody know anything about online application for OWP, after I received AIP? Because I sent my app without OWP.. :/
 
Hi everyone. I have a question regarding my sponsored wife. I submitted the application when I was still in Winnipeg. And now I moved to Calgary due to some personal circumstances.. Just recently, my wife got approved for her visa(thank God) and received her CoPR however, the destination printed in the CoPR form is still Winnipeg. Would there be a problem if she will now land here in Calgary where I now live? Any help from you guys is deeply appreciated..

Hi,

I am somewhat confused here. I have already done my medical exams. I have two children aged 5 years plus and 2 years plus. I had heard that children who are 11 years and older only were required to go under medical exams. Is it true? Or do I have to take my two children also for medical exams?

The other inquiry is regarding my 5 years old plus. He is a child from my ex-husband which means step son to my current husband (my sponsor). Our plan is to take the younger child (our baby together) as a dependent first and then take our elder child (from my ex-husband) after a few years. In this case, is my elder son's medical required?

Please respond!

i would choose family visit. seems to match the best.
