Just ignore it for now. When you have your application under process, they will issue you one and then you can see whether it is the same. Please let me know if it is the same.

Noted, I guess I have no other choice than ignoring it anyway since they can't find me in their system.

Thanks a lot, I'll put a reminder for later to keep you updated.

Dear legalfalcon:

I couldn't find any certified translators as such, so I went to a notary public, who himself translated the documents and the same notary public notarized the translated document and copy of the original. In addition, he also furnished an affidavit as a translator and himself notarized it also.

Do you think this could be an issue, as someone told me notary public cannot translate let alone notarizing own translation. Please advise, as I'm worried now. The idea of translator and notary public both as same is not striking me very right either.

Legalfalcon, I scanned in my passport photo for my pr application, instead of submitting digital photo. Is this OK?

Hi @legalfalcon

Do you know at which stage during the PR processing do they usually request RFPR fee?

Thanks

 

[BeeCeea]

Also @legalfalcon , what's next after RFPR fees has been paid?

You cannot self notarize. Notarization is the process where you go to the notary public and sign, he verifies that the person signed in his presence on the document.

One person cannot do all.

If the quality is good and resolution, it will work.

So, if his assistant who actually translated on his behalf, writes the affidavit and then the notary public notarizes it, is that fine then?
And is it alright if he is not a certified translator? Its very hard to find certified translators here in my city.

You only need pay stubs in you work in Canada. If you are outland, and applying under FSW, no need for pay stubs or IT returns.

IRCC states:

The following documents are mandatory for each work experience declared:

• a reference or experience letter from the employer, which
  • should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
  • should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; and
• if the applicant is self-employed, articles of incorporation or other evidence of business ownership, evidence of self-employment income and documentation from third-party individuals indicating the service provided along with payment details (self-declared main duties or affidavits are not acceptable proof of self-employed work experience).

If the work experience is in Canada, proof may include copies of T4 tax information slips and notices of assessment issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (the time period for these documents should reflect the work experience timeframe [e.g., work experience from 2006 to 2008 requires only documents from those calendar years]).

However, see the online account prompts against the place where you have to upload the documents. IRCC does change thing, and I haven't check MYCIC in a while. So if the online account prompt asks for pay stubs, then only include it.

My online account asks for pay stubs along with reference letters. I'm FSW - Outland.

Hey @legalfalcon

Do you know if the same security checks at the PR level are done at the temporary resident visa level or is it on a lower scale?

So, if his assistant who actually translated on his behalf, writes the affidavit and then the notary public notarizes it, is that fine then? YEs, it just can't be the same person.

Yes, he need not be a a certified translator.
