OCTOBER 2013 OUTLAND APPLICANTS... join here!

[Nuri]

Hello everybody

I am from Argentina, but i am living here as common law with my boyfriend, we have already a year living together, in Toronto. I have been here most of this time, but back and forth every 2-3 month, only there a week or so. He is separed (they did the legally agrement, but they are not divorce yet). Im here as Tourist.

We are completing the form for spousal Sponsorship and we will be submitting our application by 20th October, I have a few questions I need please your help.

We will present the forms as Outland, (because I need to go to Argentina while we do this process )

1 - In the Table of Sposorship of spouse for Argentina does not ask for FORM 5409 about DECLARATION OF COMMON LAW UNION
But im in a Common Law since a year, So Should we complete the form?? If so it needs to be signed by a Notary ?

He can sponsor me becouse we are in a common law for more than a year now, We can apply Outland anyway right?

2 - if we complete the Form 5409 (I think its important to complete becouse I was here. and a have lots things we can prove)
How should i complete the other form IMM 0008 On question Number 10 Current Country Of Residence?? Argentina or Canada?? Status ??? Becouse Legally i am argentinian Resident but, I was here in Canada taking courses of English and living with him.

3- Also on IMM 0008 Question Number 13 A Current Marital Status should i said In Common- Law ? In Canada? or just i should say SINGLE, Date of Common Law start ?? Is when I came here to start to live with him when we sign a Agreement Lease???

4- Contact Information Should be in Canada ?? Where im now, or Should be in Argentina, Becouse Im here as Tourist, but in a month i will be back for maybe a week or so. Could be one mailing address Argentina and residencial in Canada??

Sorry but this became confused, Or Could be a good idea, only complete with my address from Argentina, but in a other paper explain that im here ??


Because if I'm supposed to live in a common law, i am not there as a single, please help me!

Also i wanted to say, I have done already my medical exams, criminal records, etc, etc. and i have been translated them here legally.

Thanks a lot in advance.

hi everyone, my husband and I will be submitting our application by third week of october. He will be sponsoring me by the way I was reading back on several posts in other topics and i keep on seeing time lines and how come most time lines reflect that the medical was already completed prior to submission? Do you guys receive medical requests at once? ??? Hope to hear from one of you

yes princessice, medical should be done first before submitting the application its part of the process for Spouse Sponsorship.. You should send application with complete requirements to avoid delays in reviewing your papers.

thanks for your response geedsey20 ;D I see,that means i don't need a referral letter from the embassy right? I even booked a consultation with an immigration visa processing org just to make sure I answered the forms correctly

These days they a lot of hospitals do an e-medical which they send directly to Canada Immigration. If you do the medical before you send in your application you can get an e-medical paper. Supposedly it can speed up the processing time so they don't need to request it later. Check with the hospital you plan to get your medicals done at.

oh and another thing, which clinic in manila is best recommended for medical? i've searched one in trafalgar and the other three at St. Luke's extension in Ermita Manila... Initially i thought the one in Makati is better but i'm having a hard time calling them for the requirements I figured if i chose that clinic they are much nearer to the Canadian embassy....(lol...just making assumptions...hoping the results will be forwarded immediately lol.....) which would you men and ladies recommend?

i went to IOM (trafalgar bldg.,Makati) for my medical. I made an arrangement first with them for my preferred sched for the medical. When i got there, everything was organized and even the personnels, nurses facilitating the procedures are very accommodating. For the requirements they'd ask me to bring 5 or 6 pcs of ID pics, passport size, ur active and original passport en make photocopy of it to make sure (thou they have thier own machine..) original and photocopy of ur Marriage Certificate, NSO copy...also bring atleast 2 goverment ID's...

CanAsian is right after ur medical, they will give you a cert/ e-medical w/c you will attach it to ur other apps to be send to CPC-M...

I'll try to help...

1. You don't need this. In the document check-list it states that you only need to provide it if you're his co-sponsor and since he's sponsoring you then it's not needed.
2. Residence is where you're currently residing, someone else may be able to correct me if I'm wrong. Personally I would put Canada and provide evidence. Do you have a Visitors Record or just a stamp? Just provide copies. So I would say Canada and status Visitor.
3. Marital status is Common-Law.
4. If you're living together I'd just provide that address, otherwise it might look like you're not living together (in my opinion).

You're able to stay in Canada with your sponsor whilst you wait for PR. So there's no harm in reflecting that in your application. Just prove that you're legally allowed to be here.

Hello everyone,

I'm new on this forum, just discovered it some days ago while I was searching for info regarding the spouse sponsorship. I will be an October applicant too (hopefully), just waiting on my police clearances.

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to ask some questions, but I will go ahead and if I'm wrong, one of the moderators could direct me in the right place. I really have a lot of questions about all this, mostly doubts (not sure I'm doing it right) but I will start with just two today. Some info about me: My husband (Canadian citizen by birth) is sponsoring me. We've been married since June 2009 and been living in Germany ever since. I am Romanian. Our VO will be Vienna.

1. I've noticed a lot of you have sent the medicals together with the application. It isn't possible for me to do so, because the panel physician approved by CIC in my area (Frankfurt) requested me to have the form from the Embassy, 4 photos and my passport before I make an appointment with him. I've mentioned this in my cover letter, do you think it will have a negative impact on the application?

2. The police certificates that I need are two: one from Germany and one from Romania. When I went here in Germany to request the German one, they've advised me to apply for a European Police Clearance. Basically, there is an agreement (since April 2012) between most of the European countries, to share criminal records through a European data base. He explained that along with the German police clearance, they will give me one from my home country, which they can request based on a European Law.
Do you think CIC will accept the certificate in this form, or will they want two individual police clearances?

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

Hi princessice. St lukes extension in the fort is the your best option. We had our medical done there and it saved us the long wait. I heard in st lukes ermita you need to be there at 3 am to line up but they starts at 7am. In st lukes the fort no long lines. Could be because the place is best accessible if you have a car but you can akways take a cab of course.
