Hi,
I'm sponsoring my spouse from the US to come to Canada via an outland application. Just a little confused on whether photocopies of birth certificates, marriage certificate, passport, etc need to be "certified" by a notary or if we can just do a simple photocopy?
None of our documents need to be translated and the USA specific instructions say: "Send photocopies of all other documents, unless instructed otherwise. If your documents are not in English or French, send a notarized (certified) translation with a copy of the originals." So if no translation is needed are we ok to send a simple photocopy or should it be notarized?
Thank you!
