Hello everyone! I need some help and guidance from you experts here on this board.
My family (my wife as primary applicant) had submitted our application to Buffalo office under 2011 FSW. We are residing in the US on non-immigrant visa. We just heard from CIC that the initial assessment has been completed and they expect to finalize our application without a personal interview. They have asked us to submit updated IMM0008, IMM5406 and IMM5669, in addition to RPRF, PCC, FBI Clearance, Proof of Settlement Funds and Letter of Employment from current employer for the primary applicant. We have had no communication with CIC since we submitted the application and received an acknowledgement with application number.
We have a few questions as we prepare to respond to their request. Would really appreciate if you can please advise.
1. We have moved to another City within the US since our original CIC application in 2011. How do we handle that? The updated documents will take of this
2. Since the original application was submitted, we now have an additional family member in the family, our 1-yr old son, that will need to be added to this application. How do we handle that? - See comment in 1 above
3. My wife is the primary applicant. They have asked for Letter of employment from her current employer. The issue is, my wife changed her employer (same field and job function) some time after submitting this application. She worked at that new employer until the end of 2012. She is no longer working as she is looking after our kids. She does plan to get back in the work force some time in 2014.
- How do we address CIC's request for Letter of employment from current employer as she is no longer working?
- Also, how do we handle the change in her employer during this period?
- Will this be a problem?
I dont think this will be problem. Considering that the eligibilty assessment has been completed and the fact that continuous employment is not listed as a requirement, you are good.
4. How do we get Police clearance certificate (PCC) from India? Do we need to go to India to get this? Someone on the forum will help with vital information for sure
5. Further, they have requested certified true copies of the documents. Does anyone know how we can these scanned copies certified? A nbotry public or a commisioner for oaths in your location should be able to do it if they see the originals
6. PCC has to be submitted in original to CPP-Ottawa. Does it have to be mailed directly by the issuing authority or can we mail it too? I guessed it is to be mailed by you.
7. They have given us 30 days to respond to their request. Not sure if we can gather and submit all the requested documents in that time, especially FBI clearance and PCC. How do we address that? If you wont be able to meet up with the deadline, it will be better to email them to explain this fact.
Thank you very much!
