Do you think I should include the fire report from the house fire?
Yes. It won't add many pages to your application, but it is solid proof that what you said happened actually did. So often when reading immigration appeal records, I see the visa officer or the person hearing the appeal saying things like: "The applicant claims that ...", "The appellant says that ..., but there is no proof.", etc.

-Tickets, receipts and other proofs of activities undertaken together.
-Proof that my first marriage is over -divorce papers etc.
-Our own statutory dec of CL union using CIC's form (I have heard of this being requested from Buffalo so we're sending it out of an abundance of caution)
