Hi,
can somebody help me!
I am confused which documents I have to send in? if I would apply for common law partner sponsorship - he is Canadian citizen, I am from Germany!
I found this:
is this the online page of CIC or do I have to fill out more?
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3900ETOC.asp
or also this:

THANKS!
would be great to get a list

or something!
Wie geht's Julia...
Outland forms are the same for married or common law partners. Some forms ask what your relationship status is, so you just need to choose "common law". And you will be required to provide proofs of your common law relationship as well.....the instructions explain everything
And just to clarify, all the forms that you and your partner will have to fill out are all here and only here:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp
The other thing that you mentioned, which is this:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3900ETOC.asp
is the sponsor's GUIDE.....so if your partner had any doubts about any of the forms and how to fill them out, that's the webpage he would have to refer to.
On the other hand, YOUR guide is this:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3999Etoc.asp
To clarify even further, what you guys should do is as follows:
1. Get your partner to fill our his sponsorship forms and prepare his supporting documents
2. Fill out your immigration forms and prepare your supporting documents, and don't forget to include the checklist for German applicants: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3901e.pdf
Important note: since you're applying outland, make sure in IMM 0008 (page 1 of 5), question 4 "Immigration office requested for processing this application", you put
Vienna (which is the office responsible for processing German applications)
3. Make sure to provide plenty of relationship proofs
4. Combine everything above in an organised fashion, and send the package to Mississauga, ON as
instructed here
viel Glück ^^
