Hi,
I was wondering if anybody knows if a photocopy of the long form birth certificate is needed for the sponsors supporting documents or would the wallet size be good enough?

Thanks! Smiley

Not sure but if you can get the long copy, it may be preferable.
I guess the IO will be looking for proof of birth in Canada - if applicable - if you can't obtain the long copy then send the short version with passport/COPR etc.

But if you have a Canadian passport, do you need a birth certificate too? (I guess it helps if you need to show you are a Canadian by descent).

It depends on the visa office that you are dealing with.  I just included a scanned copy of my birth certificate card.  Nothing else.
