Thank you. If there are two family members of the same family, do they have to send two separate emails for their applications? In my case, my daughter is applying for grandparents-does the grandfather and grandmother send in separate emails?

I dowloaded and filled the form with my wife October 8 and went with it to get it sign by a notary the 13th. I realized after reading the message here that there's a new form that was online the 9th, should I make a new one or we're good ? I did signed it myself personally like in the new version directly in front of the notary.
when it says (step 2) "your family member in Canada sends you the application for you to sign. [then] you send it back to your family member in Canada"
does this mean we cannot email it, and must fax / postal mail it?
I have the same question - do we need to send back and forth the actual hard copy? It's not clearly stated on the Government of Canada website...they use the word "send". It's pretty ambiguous. From the instructions, I have to first fill out my part, then "send" it to my partner to fill out hers, she signs (electronically) and "sends" it back to me. I think up to this point, we can still use email. However, what about after I print out the filled form and get notarized? I will then be physically signing in front of a notary public. Do I need to mail this hard copy back to my partner or sending the scanned notarized form by email is sufficient? Thanks!
I can now confirm that email is fine. But yes, "send" is a very subjective word; my (older) lawyer automatically assumed that meant postal but then we reviewed it again and I talked to others in the same boat, and they were successful with all-digital, so that's what I'll be doing.
In the point for detailed reason for travel...how long should it be? In my case I can only think of uniting with family as grandparents are old and live alone.
Secondly, they have a PR application in progress, do I need to mention that too.

The following is what I saw on the website:
Make sure you include
your full name
your date of birth
your passport number
a detailed reason for travel
the dates you plan to travel
where you live now (current country of residence)
your supporting documents to show you’re eligible to travel to Canada at this time (for example, the application for authorization and statutory declaration for extended family members)
I am an American citizen, my boyfriend is a Canadian Permanent Resident. We have been dating for two years and have traveled to see each other many times. When he came to Canada he was in a common law marriage but is not anymore. Does anyone know if that will affect me going over there or his stuff when he applies for citizenship for Canada? How thorough is their research when approving or denying people.
