I am submitting my Additonal Document request today. So I was wondering if including in my Evolution of Marriage letter (that they requested), a statement of how emotionally painful being apart from one another is causing us emotional pain and crying. Would this positively affect the Visa Officer reading the letter?
I mean this is a LOVE story after ALL, no?

What is your opinion and if anybody done so, please CHIME IN.

I doubt it will hurt to include such a letter, so why not? (Not clear why this information could not be in your evolution of marriage letter, but perhaps better to separate)

But: keep it brief and as factual as possible. They do not want to read novels or long emotional pleadings. I know that is a bit of a contradiction since you want to make this 'a statement of emotional pain', but to the extent possible: short, factual, specific.

Just give them exactly what they want in the additional documents.
Most normal people including a ' Visa officer ' will understand what's happening and you will have a better chance if you don't make anything up.
You decide if an emotional statement will help?
 
Visa officers make decisions based on facts. The last thing visa officers want is extra information. It is pretty much understood that spouses want to be reunited as soon as possible.

Not true, a couple needs to use anything in their power to convince the Officer. I think including describing your feelings.
We are humans, not robots. This is not Express Entry application.
I don't know where you get your facts from, if you have an official source to back up your claim, or is this just your opinion, etc. Do you work for ircc or are ex employee visa officer?

If an "Emotional Impact" letter is meant to convince an officer of the validity of your relationship and you are using it as a crutch, you should really get more solid proof for your application. The officer will not give make things easier for you or give you preferential treatment just because you choose to include this kind of letter. It will also not speed up your application.

What people are trying to tell you is that you are not unique in wanting to reunite with your partner - everyone gets emotionally upset if they have to spend time apart. Officers understand this and its nothing new.

The IRCC officers are trained to do their job..... Some are from different backgrounds, cultures, and have their own 'opinions'.
I have spoken to them directly and from my experience they view this process as if you are guilty until you can prove your worthiness.
Probably best to stick to the facts, give them what they want, and not be in a rush during a pandemic. Many of us understand what it's
like not being together!

Ok, I'm just gathering opinions, I never said to not give them what they ask for.
I'm trying to have a constructive discussion without getting personal.
Thanks for your opinion.
