Anyone of you here did not include "on a separate sheet of paper, provide any additional details about your current relationship that you believe would help prove your relationship is genuine and continuing"?

I did not include that because i thought the forms we filled up (esp the sponsored spouse questionnaire) and other proofs like pictures since 2007 and wedding, chats since 2013, few western union receipts, tickets are enough to prove. My husband and i started dating since 2007 and been in a long distance relationship since 2013. And now im worried bec we didnt add that.

By the way, the latest correspondence from the visa ofc was additional doc for permanent residence fee.

Hoping someone can share their experience and/or ideas. Thank u.
Are you saying you did not have yours but, did your husband included his own? Each of you are supposed to have this last statement from the questionnaire. If only your husband provided this I am sure you are still fine :)

:eek: we both didnt include a separate sheet :-[
Are they going to ask for it? Where can i see a post in the forum about this?
Bec what i believe, the answers we filled up in the questionnaire and other proof like pics, money transfers, tickets are enough.

Bec in the form it says we can use additional sheet if we need more space to explain the development of the relationship and/or can add additional details to prove genuine and continuing relationship , right? What we did was, kind of summary on how our relationship developed. Now im worried.

Hey,

Did anyone's application has been approved?? If so, did u receive a passport request letter yet??
& is there anyone here applied to Paris visa office???
I think it s too quick for Dec applicants to receive their PR VISA. Most of us are in the second or third stage of the process, We 've just received our SA and a few of us got their AOR 2
Only Zanican received PPR, which is really fast and amazing

AOR2 is the Acknowledgment letter from PAs visa office.

If it said you're eligible to sponsor your husband, then that's not your AOR1, that's your SA :D. You should either receive an email from your VO saying they've received your PA application, or you'll see an extra line on the applicant side of ECAS saying they've started processing your application. Either one of these counts as an AOR2.

Great thread!

Then SA Dec 16, email on Dec 19/20 2016 for additional info.
Then AOR2 from Mexico VO received Jan 18/19 2017!

I have linked the file on the CIC website in March. It is like everyone else, processing.

Depends on the visa office/country of citizenship. Some early January applicants have received Decision Made & passport requests - only ones I've seen have been Americans through Ottawa.

Most offices, including Ottawa non-Americans seem to be at about October applicants at best (with many September & August files still in process).
