I need your help.

I have a question: When I finished the questionnaire online, the system indicated that I need t provide the following documents:

1) IMM5710E
2) Digital Photo
3) itinerary Letter
4) Explanation Letter

My question is what should I write for itinerary Letter? It is required when I need to apply BOWP

Applied February 3rd no movement for me yet........
However, I must be the only one here that doesn't want there to be any movement!
I had my PR application approved on March 10th waiting on my COPR...... Any day now fingers crossed...... Hopefully before they process my bowp!

$600 back in my pocket (family application)
I hope they process all of yours and leave mine at the bottom of the pile! ???

HI Chokra
Have you had any update on your application
Anxiously waiting for there to be zero movement on my application, CIC says my COPR is in the mail!
Talk about down to the wire!

Hello Everyone!

Just a question for all who applied together with OWP for their spouse, we will apply for the BOWP and spouse OWP online with AOR.
On the checklist, I assume that only the principal applicant needs the
photo? also I would like to ask about the IMM5713E, I also assume that we both need to sign the form and scan to upload?

Thank you in advance.

My husband is applying for a BOWP and an OWP for myself. It's showing $100 more now and we have to provide proof on funds.
Has anyone else had to do this?

Hello,

I am applying for BOWP.
Does anyone have format for ITINERARY? I do not have any travel dates.

I am so confused with this. I am in Canada since last 4 years.

They also ask how long you planning to stay. what should I put?
1) more then 6 month
2) less then 6 month
3) permanently

Thanks,
