Spouse (outside) PR application including IMM 0008, IMM 5669, IMM 5406

[Echostorm]

I am a protected person living in Canada with my two children. Two years ago, I applied to include my spouse, who is living outside Canada. Last year, I received a letter asking me to resubmit forms IMM 0008, IMM 5669, and IMM 5406, but I did not submit them. This year, I received another letter from the Canadian embassy outside Canada, requesting the same forms.

My questions are:

1. For form IMM 0008, should I complete the form with my own information as the Principal Applicant since I am the protected person in Canada, or should I complete it with my spouse’s information since my spouse is outside Canada?
2. Where should I submit the completed forms? I do not see an option to upload these documents in my GCKey account. Should I submit them through the IRCC Webform, or should I send them directly to the visa office or embassy mentioned in the letter?
