URGENT request: one month ago, we received a letter asking us to fill out use of rep, and again the additional family info for both parents. We sent it off within a week as per instructions on the letter. I raised a webform asking if they have received all information to which they said they have all documents ready for officer review. Today, a month later we received almost the same letter, asking to fill out use of rep and additional family info for both parents, with slightly different attachment of a different type of consent form. Has anyone received a second letter asking them to resubmit documents already submitted from an earlier letter? Its all very strange. Thanks!
I would say just fill it and send it asap!!

Hello, I was able to link my application today. However, no email for Aor or sponsorship approval was sent. Does this mean that the sponsorship was approved but still need to wait for the official letter?

Hello all,

Hope to get few answers and appreciate your response. Asking on someone's behalf, my friend got invite and filed PR application for her mother under Parents program. Her mother has visited Canada on a visitor visa.
Note: She did not apply for her father as father is not interested in moving to Canada and is living in a different country as a citizen. Parents have been living separately for a long time and meeting yearly during most of the married life.

She filed application with mother as the principal and only applicant but CIC is asking for few extra forms (IMM5406e, eIMM5669e) to be filled by her father as well.

1. I am not sure but is it the procedure to ask forms to be filled by a parent's spouse, when one is not filling to be an applicant?
Should she clarify again that only mother is wanting to move to Canada?
2. What should be parents marriage status, is it Married or Separated? They are living separately although involuntary not because of a breakdown but due to work and preference reason. Note they do meet regularly yearly or so for a month or over.
3. The parents do not have a marriage certificate as a proof of their wedding. The wedding happened in late 60s and country they married did not require a certificate at that time. What proof or explanation can be provided? The sponsoring child has already shared letter explaining situation.
4. If she is unable to provide further information asked e.g. marriage certificate etc. What could be worst case scenario in addition to application decline?

Any other related information will be appreciated if anybody has knowledge on this matter.

Thanks

Same here. We need to wait for sponsorship approval. It just mean they have moved the application in the system

I have applied for my mom and also receiving mails from IRCC to submit already submitted documents. One mail gives many option to submit the documents and another gives only one option. When I log into the web portal, I am able to view all documents but probably they are not able to and that's the reason documents are requested again. It is frustrating!
Note the latest version of the forms. I just checked...they have a new version of Additional family information released on Feb 2023. This is indeed frustrating.

Btw Help needed with Additional Family Form (new version came out in 02,2023)


1. I know that my mother has to fill out the IMM 5406 ("Additional Family Information") form. However - my father is also required to fill out this form as the spouse of my mother- I'm confused about how to fill it out. On the version of my mother, under "Applicant," I obviously put the name of my mother as the principal applicant. However, on my father version of the form, under "Applicant" whose name must be written? It seems logical to put mother name as she is the principal applicant, however, the forms were returned so I need to make sure I am doing it correctly. Cannot figure what else could be wrong.

2. For empty fields, what do I put?
Thank you in advance,

Thank you in advance,
Both have to fill up there own forms with there own name on the top only change on forms will be
On mother form mother is applicant father spouse and on father form mother is spouse

I know kinda confusing but keep it simple
Mother form on top mothers name and rest all the information and on father form fathers name on top and rest all the information..

In empty fields old form do say on top if dont know write not applicable which we did !!

Hope this help if not post here again with your question :)
