Hello friends, I sponsored my wife. File was processed by SGVO. Immediately after she got MR, we became parents. Her medical was partially done since she was due in a week. Now I contacted CIC and they told me to fill up 2 forms for my baby among which I believe 1 is required. I need some clarification on below questions (highlighted red). I quote their email with my questions:

To do so, we invite you to complete the following forms and mail them to the Case Processing Centre (CPC) in Mississauga, Ontario:

- A new Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking form (IMM 1344) completed by the sponsor,
Is my baby the principal applicant on this form?
Your Answer:
Does my wife require to sign on page -1, section 3 (Co-Signer)?
Your Answer:
Person you are sponsoring (PA)- Is this my child's name?
Your Answer:
Signature on Page 6 (last page) - If my baby is the principal applicant what can I do in this signature field?
Your Answer:

- (If the application is still at the CPC in Mississauga) A new Generic Application Form for Canada (IMM 0008) with supporting documents,
My wife was the principal applicant and the file was already processed at SGVO. Now I am just sponsoring my baby who is 1 month old. Does this form require to fill?
Your Answer:

- (If you are adding a dependent child of a dependent child) A Financial Evaluation form (IMM 1283) with supporting documents,
This is not required

and

The add-on request
including:
  • your name, (Is this the sponsor's details or my wife's details who was the PA?)
  • your client ID number/UCI, (Is this the sponsor's details or my wife's details who was the PA?)
  • your file number, (Is this the sponsor's details or my wife's details who was the PA?)
  • a detailed letter of explanation,
  • a copy of the birth certificate, marriage certificate or proof of common-law relationship, and
  • if applicable, the proof of payment.

Hi,

Regarding the additional family information form, I have a few questions:

- do the sponsor and principal applicant have to fill the form, or is it only for the principal applicant?

- do we have to provide the parents and siblings details along with birth certificates?

Fyi- the principal applicant is my wife, this is our first marriage and we do not have any kids together or with someone else.

Thanks.

If your wife took ur last name after the wedding, then she needs a new passport.
E.g. I have not changed my last name, so uded my current passport.

Dear Sir / Madam,

Myself and my ex-wife were granted PR in Feb 2015.
However, we mutually divorced in Dec 2015.
I got to know through sources that my ex-wife is getting "unemployment insurance" for last 6 months in Canada as she lost her job due to a medical emergency.
I got married again in July 2016 and wish to sponsor my current wife.
Now will the fact that my ex-wife is getting unemployment insurance affect sponsorship of my current wife?

I am really worried because it says in the sponsorship application that if any of the persons i sponsored before are getting social assistance then I am not eligible to sponsor any new person.
Please advise.

You will be responsible to pay back every dollar she received. Than i think you would be able to sponsor. I think there is a 5 year wait in between for defaulting on your sponsorship

Hi,

My wife's application was sent back to us because it was missing a signature.

As it took them more than two months to get back to us, there are a couple of things that can be updated in her application. For instance, we recently travelled together. Do we need to update this part of the application before sending it back or just signing the document that was missing a signature would be enough?

Also, I found a new job. Do I need to update my employment status in the application as well? Previously, I stated that I am a student which is still true. Is it possible to get rejected because you are not making enough money?

These might sound stupid, but I am just worried and confused at this point and don't want to get rejected so any comment would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I read on some other blog that unemployment insurance and social assistance are two different things. how true is that? do you have any idea about it?

Our file(Spousal sponsorship) reached Mississauga CPC on November 24, 2017 and we haven't received any update from them till now. No acknowledgement , no file number , no email ...nothing. Do they really take this much time in providing the first acknowledgement?
Is there a way I can talk to them without having the application number?
We applied Dec 6 2017 and FED EX had it in the CIC office next day, still have heard nothing.
