Hello

I am attempting to fill out this form but it does not make sense. In the online guide it states to fill in the following information however none of these questions are actually on the form. Did they make a mistake?

This form must be completed and signed by the sponsor and common-law partner, only if the latter is a co-signer on the application.

It looks like a mistake in the guide. Fill out IMM 5481 (the Sponsorship Evaluation); the instructions you posted are for IMM 5409 (the Statutory Declaration of Common-law Union).

Vaughn,

There is a mistake with the instructions.

That was discussed here: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/imm5481-the-instructions-do-not-match-at-all-with-my-form-do-i-have-a-differen-t79138.0.html;msg921187#msg921187

The recommendation is to use the PDF version of the guide which is more complete:
