If for any reason you are not able to meet this deadline, please inform us immediately by email to: ankraimmigration@international.gc.ca with details concerning your situation.

• Your failure to declare all of your family members, accompanying or not, will permanently exclude them from sponsorship under the Family Class regulations.
• Any changes that result in visa reissuance will incur a Replacement of an Immigration Document charge of CAD$30 for each visa that needs to be re-issued.
STEP 2: Passport Requirements – Determine if you need to submit your passport(s)
• Determine whether you require a visa to enter Canada at www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/visit/visas.asp

• Ensure that your passport is valid for at least 12 months from the date of this letter.
• Passports that are not signed by the holder are not valid for travel.
If you do not require a visa to enter Canada:
• Please submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and one for each accompanying family member.
• Ensure that your passport is valid for at least 12 months from the date of this letter.
