Hello,

When I apply for SOWP, CIC only asks for the following documents:
1. OWP Application Form IMM5710
2. My passport
3. My photo
4. Common-law Declaration Form IMM5409
5. Family Member Proof of Status (which means my partner's WP, VISA, passport)
6. Letter of Explanation

So my list doesn't ask for anything to prove that my partner is working, we are actually in Common-law etc. I do have these documents prepared. Should I lump everything into that Letter of Explanation? I'm worried that its size might be too large to upload.

Or did I miss anything when filling out the CIC questionnaire?

you can merge several pdf files into one and upload all your proof of common-law relationship under the section "common-law declaration form". You can do the same with your partner's work documents and upload all of them as one pdf file under the section "family member proof of status".
