What do you mean? Paper size A4 or something? I have a feeling it won't work, all of the PDF forms are formatted to 8.5" x 11".

Maybe your husband can go in person to the consulate? Take his file number and UCI with him.

If you are in Canada "now waiting for my permanent residence status" and your husband is not in Canada, under which immigration class are you applying to become a PR?
The reason that I ask is that this seems inconsistent with this "Family Class Sponsorship (Spousal sponsorship)" section of the forum.

Hi all,

I've written this in the Sydney outland thread but just want to see if I get a response from this thread just in case I don't with the other.

Hi all,
Just about to send off my outland Spousal sponsorship application, Just wondering how you all went about packaging it?

Did you just use 3 Manila folders and put them in another and send or should I just separate the sponsor and sponsored and put the "proof of relationship'' in with my sponsored persons app?

I've got about 50 photos and a printout of a trip we had. We live together in Canada and I've been in Canada our entire relationship. Would I need much else or would that be fine, seeing as we've ticked off that we live together?
I've added a guest list print off for a future bigger wedding ceremony we've planned with IMM 5490.
Also is it ok to send the original Marriage certificate? We just ordered 2 anyway.

Thankyou for any input!

Use Access to Information Act and ask for 'Notes' on your husband's file. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp
This process takes 30 days, but you will know if the email was sent in the notes.

Similar can be achieved by contacting your local MP. In that case the information arrives in 3-4 days. Use this page to find who your MP is http://www.parl.gc.ca/Parlinfo/Compilations/HouseofCommons/MemberByPostalCode.aspx?Menu=HOC

Hello Everyone,

I have a question regarding Married Cousins.
I have been with my cousin for 10 years and this summer we will be getting married. We had a very long engagment, not wanting to rush marriage. Well, the time has come to take the next step :)

My question relates to the sponsored person not being too closely related to the sponsor. So does that include cousins?
I want to start preparing my application but I dont know if there is any point???
Will they refuse us straight up because we are cousins?
Has anybody heard of any successful cases of married cousins?
Feeling really anxious now..

Best of luck to all though
