Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

Yes need notarized

Is this true? i have to get all the photocopies notorized?

I never heard someone got refused by stapling papers and printing on 2 sides. You are saving the planet by printing the application two sides.

They do not get refused but they could send it back. They clearly said do not staple on the guide. ( at least on the 2018 guide for sure)

And in Family size column? Do you have any cosigner?

Are we adding the applicant we are applying for in the family size?

 

[mkundu]

Family size includes sponsor, co- signer (if applicable), any dependents, and the sponsored persons (Mom and Dad)

@Tarandeep Sabharwal Are you sure we include the sponsored person we are applying for in this. as thery were not part of family financially in previous years. I am confused i just counted me and my husband and i am trying to sponsor my parents

This will become a problem in the future, if not in the application stage.. My friend who got the PR and don't have last name came here and ended up changing his name in the passport through Indian consulate or else CIC won't issue him a PR card.. Last name is mandatory for CIC I think..

For application stage, you can call up the CIC agent and ask him what is the best course to take.

I don't think they will refuse the PR card.
I don't have last name on passport and got my PR card without any issues.

Thank you for your response! I really need my parents support in my current situation. Appreciate it!

You can help your parents to apply for super visa, which allow them to stay in Canada for continuously 2 years at a time. At least I know the super visa process is much faster than the sponsorship process.

Thanks for the info, already sent the application and stapled them.

The only info that I found about do not staple is in
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...-guide-sponsor-your-spouse-partner-child.html
But its not under the parent sponsor guide
Hope they will not return my application.
what are the chances for returning it?
Are they that lazy?

[CA2510]

I am the sponsor and applying for my mother. I have a copy of my birth certificate. Do I need to get the birth certificate copy attested from a lawyer when i submit the application ???

@joe9kah what did you end up doing, my parent also dont have last name in passport

@joe9kah
Same situation with my parents.
I am doing “Not applicable” in given name on just imm5669 and providing an explanation that this form does not allow to leave given name blank.

Ah, finally a question on place of birth for people from the Indian sub-continent pre-1947
My mother, now living in India, was born in Lahore in 1940....
I put "Lahore, India" when there is a pull down,
OR
"Lahore, Undivided India" when there is a write-in field.
My logic is that you can't have been born in a country that didn't exist at the time.
I guess this applies to a bunch of people, e.g. former Yugoslavia, former Soviet Republics etc.
BTW, her current passport, issued just a couple of months ago, says "Lahore, Undivided India".
Hope this helps.

Hi
Thanks for responding
any idea about the unknown dates?
** does not work when validation is required.

I did the same. It was not mentioned anywhere on the documents referred to us. Frankly, I don't think anyone can be that unreasonable to return the application just because of 'staples', but I guess it depends on the officer taking care of the file! Good Luck!
BTW, are you able to locate your file here yet: https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/sessionexpired.do?app=&lang=en ?

Hopefully they understand that application for parents are harder to come by and they can get over it by simply remove the staples.

I just filled out IMM 1344 . Is any one else also facing this issue

Co sponsor telephone no is picking 11 instead of 1 .

After filling IMM 1344 , when I try to open it back I am seeing an error
"CO -signer Contact Information -
The format you entered in the following field was incorrect .
1: Telephone No (Country Code)

The Correct format is:
Must be numeric and must not start with '11'
