how to electronically sign an IMM form

[stephannymora1638]

Ive been trying to complete the IMM 1344 sponsorship form and i get right until the point where i have to sign. I can validate it on adobe reader but i can't figure out how to electronically sign the forms. Any help is appreciated!

It sounds like you're applying to sponsor a spouse or common law partner for PR. If that's the case, you cannot sign forms electronically. All signatures (both the sponsor's and applicant's) must be original.

yes exactly, im trying to sponser my husband, but he doesnt live in canada, so that would essentially mean that to get his signature i would have to mail the documents to him, have him sign them, and then have him mail them back to me and then mail them off to immigration?

Or he could print out the pages requiring a signature, sign them, then send those to you by mail which you can then use to complete the application?

Yes - that's exactly what you need to do. Or as rish888 explained the above, have him complete the forms and sign - and then send by mail to you.

Either way works - provided both of your signatures on all required forms are originals.
