Hi,
Both myself and my Canadian partner are living abroad. My partner is definitely moving back to Canada (we have email proof to the employer and one-way flight ticket). We can submit the application next week (outland), but unsure if better to wait because:
- I am due to get a new passport in 3 weeks
- My Canadian partner is moving back to Canada in 1 month
- I am moving either to Canada in 2 months (or move back to my country of Citizenship if they don't let me in with dual intent). The initial plan was to wait and see if they let me in and do inland, but given the strikes, we decided it is safer to do outland.
Am I better to submit next week and send the 3 updates above via webform? Or am I better to wait to submit the application until I have done point 1, 2 and 3 or some of them to not confuse IRCC?
I know that IRCC are not very good at checking the webforms, is it a good idea to also email my VAC to let them know of the updates?
I assume I will receive the AOR in 2 months, do I need to wait for AOR to submit a webform with the updates listed above? Or should I do this as soon as the changes happen?
I am also concerned about bringing the new passport to do the biometrics and medicals, but IRCC will still have not logged my new passport number on their system and this will mess things up? Sorry, seems quite negative but I don't have much faith in IRCC admin process...
