So, my partner and I waited a little to long to apply as we were stuck waiting on his medical examination to be completed as he had a request for a psychiatrist evaluation due to taking antidepressants. As I was just about to finalize our application, I noticed that they changed the process, and one of the forms required (IMM5406) requires both of us to sign and fill it out. This may be a really silly question, but how can we do that if we are living in two different countries? Would it be ok for our signatures to have different dates? And if this form requires validation, will that affect it in any way?
Also, upon further reading I noticed that they have also changed the time frame for the inland applications to 12 months. We were originally going to apply outland because of the faster application process but the time frame is basically the same now. If we were to apply inland, would we be able to apply with temporary visitor status and still be able to receive the open work permit? And with this application does that mean he would have implied status in Canada and not have to leave when his temporary visitor status would end?
Sorry if these are stupid questions, I get myself confused very easily, haha. Thanks in advance guys. I need all the advice I can get haha.
