I am in a very tough situation.

We applied under CEC this April, no medical exam yet but we broke up last month.
I am the primary applicant and sponsoring my ex.

My question is...

1. Do I need to tell CIC that we are no longer under common law? If I do, would cic cancel the entire application and we have to re-apply separately?

2. She is now qualified to apply on her own. Is it possible to keep the application ongoing, resend her employment document and ask CIC to treat this as 2 separate application, so that 8 month of waiting is not wasted?

Please help...thanks !!

Sorry to hear about your situation. You can tell CIC about your change in status and they would take her off your file. You are in a good position as your medicals have not started yet, so you are not that far in the application stage.

Yes, you were the primary applicant and sponsoring her under Common Law. If for any reason the relationship breaks, then the dependent applicant is not eligible for sponsorship by the primary applicant. She will have to apply and start over again.

thank you! last question...it will not delay/affect my application, right?

If I sponsor someone else next year or so, I don't have to wait for the "3yr wait" period?

--Do I send an email to CIO-Sydney-Search-Enquiry@cic.gc.ca to notify them? is there a form that I have to complete?

thanks !!!

do you receive AOR , use that one to communicate, or else use above one you mentioned. or else

https://dmp-portal.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx?_ga=1.72243411.133690044.1405364011

this one.

but none of them can guarantee you get feedback quickly, one more month waiting time,

your ex should prepare now , or else 2015 policy will be changed. if wait doc send back.

and actually, your case will be accelerated , because the background work for your case now is 1 person not 2 .


not sure your ex can do it quickly or not , it need a new copy of ielts result, ielts give a copy time is slow as I know.

but now before 2015 only about 40 days.

and more, you needn't worry anything, just update information, even the last step of the whole PR process , the email from cic will ask you if need dependent information update.

but it is your responsibility to update information when it changed. so you are out of trouble , just email it , u are done.

the problem is your ex . how to prepare all the doc from scratch in short time. and in his/her case , maybe need explain your withdraw case.

that is my opinion.
