    When does the sponsored applicant receive notification?

    The visa office will communicate with the applicant after sponsorship approval, but they will not keep you updated of their every move on a regular basis. You will only hear from them in two situations: 1- They require more documentation or updated information, pending fees, and/or call you for...

    dependent children sponsorship

    What is "pcc"? What does "this country" or "home country" mean? You need to make sure that you are still considered a Permanent Resident because living outside of Canada for a certain period of time may disqualify you as a PR. Check that first. Then you need to prove that your children were...

    we are married what aplication should we apply for?

    Family class sponsorship applications take anywhere from 8 to 24 months depending on the visa office you apply to. If your wife is a resident of Uruguay her application would have to go to the Buenos Aires Visa Office (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions/buenos-aires.asp)...

    As for the documents' translation it depends on which province in Canada you'll be getting your driver's licence in. For Ontario, for example, the requirement is to have the driver's licence and/or letter of authentication translated to either English or French from a Ministry recognized...

    Not sure how it works for Nicaragua, but in El Salvador the issuing agency is the Viceministerio de Transporte (VMT) and the document to ask for is "Autentica de Licencia de Conducir" which basically indicates the validity of the driver's licence and the amount of driving experience of the...

    Additional info pages to attach - is it better to type or hand write

    agree with madeincanada. Whatever is easily readable works fine. I have lousy handwriting so decided to do all additional info pages on Word, making sure to add the sponsor or applicant's name at the top of the page (depending on whose form it was that I was adding to), also indicate on the...

    E-cas status was updated as of today, showing Decision Made under the applicant's name. I guess it's just the VO updating the line after PPR. Still waiting for our passports. Should be any time next week. Fingers crossed. Good luck to you all still waiting for news.

    IMM 1344 - Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking - Q3

    Because you would use the same form IMM 1344 when sponsoring a parent or parents, in that case you could have a co-signer which most likely would be your spouse, that's the reason the question is there. For sponsoring your wife and kids you don't need a cosigner and you leave the question as Not...
