Thanks Andy and diegosolano.

This is for the family unit mismatch.
I hope by attaching the screen captures of tweets by IRCC they do not feel offended as if I am trying to find fault with them rather than reading the question properly in the first place?
Any comments?
Yes I feel the same, because the question clearly mentioned what family unit means. brain storm how to tackle...

Okay you meant printing. There shouldn't be.
If you have laser printer, go with laser. I tried printing in both inkjet and laserjet, the laserjet prints far better especially the barcode part which is crucial.
yes they recommend laser printer but for the knowledge of house I have used new inkjet in the past and barcode was accepted with out any problem, the old inkjet printer loses accurate printing.

Please can any one give reference regarding " marriage affidavit" is acceptable instead of " marriage certificate" or "marriage licence" or "nikah nama" issued by muncipal/local authorities or registrar of marriages. Thanks in advance

Read my enthusiastic intern theory a few posts back...
lol - you mean this theory - "So based on your case, it is taking 4 working days for ECAS to be updated. Assuming it stays the same, I can expect my ECAS to be updated on May 10th."
It doesn't look like 'first come-first serve' is working out here!

Sorry - you were referring to the 'intern' theory! sorry missed that part!! haha! so 'randomness' holds too!

I have validated im 1344 successfully, but whenever I re-open it: (ERROR)
Co-signer contact information the format you entered in the following field was incorrect
1: Telephone NO (Contry Code) "should not be 11" this is what I get, this means the programing code inherent in the form is reading canada code 1 as 11 and invalidating the from

what's wrong?
Thanks for reporting, I have the same problem and now I have no doubt that they have left a glitch in the programing of the form. The solution is like this, if we print the form after validation every thing is correctly printed and then save the form. Would every thing go fine this way?

Hi friends, I have created a list of all documents which will be required for parent's sponsorship.

Below list has also the details of number of copies, please correct it, if needed any modification.
  1. Invitation letter -1 copy-
  2. IMM5771 - Document checklist -1 copy-
  3. IMM1344 - Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking -1 copy -Only one form with details of Sponsor(me) and Prinicipal Applicant(father)
  4. IMM5768 - Financial Evaluation for Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship -1 copy
  5. IMM 0008 - Generic Application Form for Canada -1 copy - Only one form with details of Principal Applicant(father) and dependent(mother)
  6. IMM 5669 - Schedule A – Background/Declaration - 2 copies - One each for Principal Applicant(father) and dependent(mother)
  7. IMM5406 - Additional Family Information - 2 copies - One each for Principal Applicant(father) and dependent(mother)

Hate the term sister too. Just reminding people you can’t assume you are dealing with a man in Canada and not to use terms like buddy, bro, brother, sister, etc. Just a simple thanks. Personal pet peeve that I comment on once in a while but important for those who plan on working or going to school in Canada.
Take it easy dude. Dudette.

Young Canadians use these terms quite a bit.

It's like "hey guys" when there are some females in the group too.

Gender is fluid of course. But genetic karyotypic sex is more or less binary in most cases.

So are you XX or XY?
