I sent multiple webforms with explanation. They received and added to my file.

imm0008 original copy
imm5669 for signed by spouse
imm5408 for you and spouse
I have an email from IRCC and it does NOT mention the imm5408 form.

It only mentions
Imm0008
Imm5669
Imm5406

Hey all,

I sent IRCC three webforms with my new spouses details and forms. What i got back was the new generic template email saying do not email us... etc.

Has anybody emailed them and got a different response in the last week?

To IRCC, I have submitted a request to add my spouse along with the documents and updated forms IMM 0008 and IMM 5406. In response, they asked us to send the same documents to NDVO as our file is currently with the Canadian Visa office in New Delhi. We sent the update request + the documents to NDVO via web form and received the following response:

"Thank you for your e-mail. Please be advised that your e-mail has been received by the Migration Section, High Commission of Canada, at New Delhi.

Kindly submit update regarding your application through your linked IRCC secure account.


If you have been requested to provide additional documents by IRCC or you wish to submit additional documents to support your application, you must submit these through your IRCC secure account. If you have not already done so, please link your application to be able to upload your additional documents. Please note that for Applications that cannot be linked, we will accept via e-mail. Please note that the mission will not be uploading any documents.

My AOR: December 14, 2019
Date of Biometrics Enrolment: January 13, 2020

Web Form:
Add Spouse Request to IRCC: August 4, 2021

As per the given instructions in this thread, I have tried different options with the information similar to the previously submitted federal form but unable to link so far.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes seems like! I have uploaded all spouse documents via the web form(s) as could not find any option to upload documents via the online account. When did you submit add spouse request and are you able to see spouse details like UCI, BIL, or medical in your online account yet? It seems this would be the next step.

The latest/last update on myCIC account - "Review of medical results - March 3, 2021:You passed the medical exam." This was re-medical after the first medical expired.

In response to our last web form in August 2021, IRCC informed us that they will update the file in 2 days and our file has reached the local visa office (Canadian Visa office in New Delhi).

I believe this is the final stage before security and PPR. Have you got such an update/information from IRCC on the status or stage of your application?

Great! Are you able to see spouse details (DOB, UCI), etc. in your online account yet? Also, could you please shed some light on the acknowledgement you have received as I still receive generic response (Afghanistan crisis) and no spouse details added to account yet.

I can NOT see spousal details on my application. Everything will happen in time. Main thing is they have acknowledged the addition of my wife.

All movements are good. Slow and steady!
