OOPS! my bad! I meant 5563, and 5475 is for the applicant to sign and agree to release the information to the citizen/PR living in Canada (the requester has to be in canada when requesting these notes). Not sure he signed for you to be his rep if you would need to do this one tho! maybe someone else can answer that!

Hope that makes sense!

lol thanks so much!!!

Hi ppsandy79 Well, I just call Antillas Express ask for Marilu. Sometimes it is hard to get through to get her but once you do. You tell her her you want to send money to Cuba to whomever etc. She takes all the info from you for payment and hubby's, address phone # and viola the money will be sent out exchanged into CUC's in Havana and then delivered from there to hubby's house. It takes a few days but it always gets there right into hubby's hands.My CC statement showed Lemargo on it for the transaction instead of Antillas the last few times. I enquired with Marilu and she explained that they are using Lemargo in Toronto to help them. In the past I would have to send a money order with the information in a letter, use snail mail etc. It took awhile but hubby always got the money every time as he has with a credit card. You can register on line with them to track the transaction as well. They also have pages to shop for items to send. Food stuffs I believe is only for the people in Havana but may have changed by now. I have only ever sent money. 1 514 385-9221/ 1 888 385-9449 Canada / USA I always called the first number as that was where I came across Marilu. Once I used the 1 888 number and got the Miami office. I hope this helps? Happy Thursday

Perfect thanks so much!

All of our prayers were answered. They called Monday morning and I answered the phone, really nice lady.
I asked if he needed to bring any further proof etc and she said no, it is not an interview he just needs to come drop off his passport and return at 2pm

Lots to do now...
KJG how long did it take to get a new version of your marriage certificate and how much was it??
Also did your hubby have to get a new stamp put in his passport?
Hubby had heard something that because of the new immigration rules that old passports need some kind of new stamp.
Also did he pay for the PRE when he dropped off the application or when he picked it up??
Thanks!!
Woo hoo!!!
