    How to fill out IMM5409

    Ok, just confused by your reply about applying conjugal vs common-law. I have read several threads about this form. And 50% of the people say, do it, even if you don't need to. The other camp says like you, don't do it. Reason being is that, sometimes CIC will later ask you to send in this...

    How to fill out IMM5409

    Are you aware of which form I'm talking about? It's called IMM5409 Statutory declaration of common-law union I imagine they just chose to phrase that particular sentence as conjugal. But the form is definitely about declaring your common-law relationship. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Visitor Visa unemployed?

    Okey cool, thanks! Okey, yes I was confused and thought I needed a TRV. But that is good to hear. Since I dont even need an eTA, should I get it anyway? Actually, they DO ask for details of employment. And yes I have a Swedish passport. And yes I'm using the eTA form on the CIC website...

    Translating and notarizing

    We called CIC and we tried to ask the CIC agent to clarify which is the correct way. They could not. They did however send us this information in an email: "Who can Translate Documents – Immigration Applications If you are submitting an immigration application, the supporting documents you send...

    Translating and notarizing

    I contacted an ATIO certified translator in Canada. She said she could translate my document from Italian to English. But she cannot notarize it. Should I find someone that can do the translation as well as notarize it? Is it enough that the translator is certified and therefore my...

    Need a translator

    I need to translate a lease in Italian to English. I contacted a certified Swedish translator bureau. But they said they can only do a certified translation to/from Swedish. So I would have to pay for them to do a double translation, first from Italian->Swedish then Swedish->English. They...

    Is this landlord letter valid?

    Thanks =) That's only if they can see that it says "June" underneath. She did cross it out pretty thoroughly =P But since the year is not changed it should be fine. It just looks weird to me having a date crossed out like that on an important document like this. If there is any problem...

    Is this landlord letter valid?

    We asked our landlady to write a letter for us, to confirm that we lived together. She then wrote the wrong moving out date. So when we told her it was wrong she crossed it out, and wrote the correct date, and then signed her name under it once more. It says "from 12/9/2013 to 4/4/2015"...

    Need some advice before sending my application

    Thank you very much! About the lease "letter". I am actually still paying for that apartment until June 30th. Even if i'm not living there. I was thinking more about changing it because the CIC asks of proof of how long you have been living together, and April 4th would be correct in that sense.
