In my opinion this is the way it needs to be. It is grossly unfair for any service provider to make people wait 3 months, 5 months, 12 months and 18 months just to tell us: "Your application is complete."

I'll be watching how quickly the rest of your steps go.

My physician's office contacted me today to let me know they expect to transmit my medical results to IRCC by Wednesday. I hope I get DM by my birthday in early December!!!!!!
indeed. especially when lots of people's work permits (i.e. legal status) depend on the issuing of the FN. I heard someone had to stop work as a result of that genius experiment of the online application portal. It was a close one for me.
 
Hi!
Did anyone got ADR on the IMM5669?
I tried to upload the updated form (with an extra sheet because my personal history will not fit in the table), but it did not work.
So I submitted via Webform the IMM5669 form.
I believe you can print all of them out(including the extra sheet), scan them into one pdf file and then upload. I believe you have to do print-and-scan anyway since the signature is required and it's not a file that can be electrically signed?

btw for my case, declarings of "all of the information provided above is truthful and accurate" are added blow each page of the extra sheets, with signatures and dates

Hello Everyone,
I'm just wondering if one of the 'silent yardsticks' of picking and processing applications is the perceived complexity of each application. For example, an applicant who is single versus an applicant with a nuclear family size of 5. I think these officials might want to naturally gravitate towards the applications with less number of dependents in that order. I think when taking the statistics of processed applications, IRCCdoes not factor in the size of family member involved per each application; they would simply reel out the data that x applications have so far been processed in the last quarter. If this reasoning is valid, then it would be more convenient to treat applications with less number of family size in order to have a seeming increase in percentage of treated application.This would definitely make it look like backlogs are being reduced drastically; which is also correct by statistics!

Sequel to this postulation, I wouldn't know if it would be out of order to include the information that shows if one's application has only one applicant(the main applicant) or if it has the main applicant and other x dependents. In so doing, it might be another way of getting insights into the the statistical tracking and understanding the perceived haphazard manner of the choice of preference for selecting application and sending out of AOR.

Please,pardon me if this has been discussed on this forum before or if this conjecture of mine makes absolute no sense; I'm just thinking loud that the total number of people included in an application might sometimes be a factor as to how fast an application could be. Also, I think including it as part of the statistical information may help create a pattern.
 
Hi!
I also have a problem with this form (IMM5669)… I tried to upload the updated form with an extra sheet (tables in the form were not sufficient)… but I couldn’t upload it via IRCC Portal.

How did you upload an extra sheet?

I am trying to fill out the personal history again, but I don't have enough space. How do I make an extra sheet in the form? Do you guys know? @moscatojuices
 
Did you use a PDF merging tool to attach it together? Or how about printing it out and using CamScanner to scan it into one doc?

Oh, yeah. I know how to use a PDF merging tool and all. I meant like, how do I format it? Do I make a word document with extra columns and rows, attach it to the end of the form (Before the signature) and that's it? Do I like answer part of the personal history in the main form, and the rest in the additional sheet? Or the entire answer in the additional sheet? etc

btw did you see saudi arabia LOL

Yeah so embrassing lol. I was shocked. Could say things are getting Messi for Argentina.

So which question of 5669 do you need additional space for?
 
Personal History

So what I would do is fill the first few rows and at the last row of the sheet, put: "REFER TO LETTER OF EXPLANATION"

Then in your letter, address it like this:

  • IN REFERENCE TO
  • SCHEDULE A BACKGROUND/DECLARATION
  • IMM 5669 (06-2019) E
  • SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FOR QUESTION 8 “PERSONAL HISTORY”
  • [INSERT YOUR NAME]
---

Dear Immigration Officer,

Hope you’re well.

With respect to Question 8 “Personal History”, I’d like to provide additional information as there was not enough space in the form itself to provide all of my personal history over the past 10 years.

Please note the following additional work experience:

From
(YYYY-MM)
To
(YYYY-MM)

So I had this issue for my ADR. I think some excellent suggestions have been made. To add to them, this is what I did:

A. I added a cover sheet with each upload. On the cover sheet, I indicated my application number and UCI (I had to upload documents for my spouse too, where the application number was the same but different UCI). I also indicated which part of the ADR I was responding to and provided a list of attached documents. For example, in my IMM5406 upload, I said,
(1) Completed and Signed IMM5406;
(2) Extra Continuation sheet containing: a. continuation of Section C (Brothers and Sisters – including half – and step-brothers and sisters)
b. Continuation of Sections A, B, and C – All names written in my native language

B. Then the actual IMM5406

C. Continuation sheet - in the header of the continuation sheet, I mentioned the principal applicant's full name, application number and UCI. I formatted the body of the sheet in the same style as that of the IMM5406 using tables in MS Word. Using subheadings to denote each section of the form that the information was relevant to. Finally, included a line with my name and date and signed the form.

Scanned all forms and uploaded to MyCIC.
