SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

[AmyR]

Hi All,

I am not sure if I am in the correct forum but I in the final stages of applying for my wife's sponsorship application to Canada from Pakistan and I need some help. I have been trying call the Help center but did not have much luck getting a hold of them. So I would really appreciate it if someone can help me with the following questions:

1) Based on the new checklist (IMM5533 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5533E.pdf) Under Part B Question 7:
- The questions asking to provide "One document from three (3) of the following sets of options" but there are 6 options listed under the question. Does anyone know what the questions is asking for?

2) In Pakistan they use A4 paper (8.25 x 11.6) but in Canada we use letter (8.5 x 11). I asked my wife to Fedex me the signature pages to be with her signature, however now since those pages are different size they do not match with rest of the application (as I printed rest of them in Canada). Is this ok?

3) Also I know in the old application they asked for Original documents and asked for education documents (for the principal applicant), but int he new process they are only asking for photocopies and NO educational documents. Am I missing anything here that I did not read? Should I give them educational documents anyway?

Thank You

I can only answer part 2 and 3 of ur queries:
2) it doesnot matter who prints it. As long as the signatures are genuine that is all that is imp in my opinion.
3) If they have not asked for it, then leave it Follow the checklist on everything except the number of photos

Thanks!

The New checklist asks you to only submit 20 pictures, it actually says "Maximum of 20 pictures". I am really confused if I should send more. I know under the old process they had a suggestion of 30 something pics but did not limit you.

1) The question is asking you to choose 3 out of the 6 options. Then, from those 3 that you picked, you provide one document from each. Hope that makes sense!

2) I had the same problem. I don't think it would cause much of an issue. Personally, I just trimmed the blank space at the bottom of the A4 paper a little so that it was as long as the letter paper lol

3) You don't need to provide educational documents you're not missing anything, they've just changed the process a little.

HELLO GUYS!!!!! ANY IDEAS HOW TO ORGANIZE THE SPONSORSHIP APPLICATION BEFORE MAILING ????

Put the checklist on top, then put the forms in the order that they are listed in the checklist. For forms that have barcode pages, put the barcode page at the top of the form. Hope that makes sense!

LVO has also started working on pakistani Nov applicants' files. people are getting re med and back ground checks in progress these past weeks. Hope for the best.

Don't they take cases sequence wise? October applicants aren't being given any update and they are dealing with November ones already? I am very worried now :'(
