    Sent in PR renewal form but forgot to sign it

    Today I sent in my PR card renewal forum but after sending it I realized I'm an idiot and forgot to sign it. I'm not sure what to do now, can I send an amendment (the form again signed)? Does anyone know the process? Thanks.

    OHIP with inland PR app w/ OWP coming from work permit + LMO

    My spouse currently has OHIP from her work permit + LMO which expires soon. We have an inland PR app in progress (AOR only) with an OWP with it.

    There's a question in the application to depict any outings or trips me and my spouse took. I presume this is to help prove the relationship is genuine. Do they want pictures? And, what exactly counts as an outing? Going to family events? The grocery store? I'm kind of confused between this...
