Green: no wahala then, you should be fine.......but if your heart is still doing gbim gbim, you may resend as a webform..... stating the obvious....that it covers your new family size still.

Blue: lol

Thanks

The applicant is responsible for ensuring that his/her POF covers his/her family size.

You should have provided updated POF if your previous POF did not accommodate your new baby. Send it now as a webform if not already done. I'm not sure the VO is obliged to request this from you but I may be wrong.

Thanks for your response. I did not bother to provide it since I was not asked when I got document request. The POF I submitted initially actually covers the new baby. But I did not have the baby in mind when I submitted it.

Hello house

We got our PPR in November 2020. However, while we were waiting to travel, my wife had a new baby. We informed IRCC. We got a request for baby documents and updated forms after some time. We also got a request for remeds which we did and passed. Does anyone if they are going to ask for new proof of funds to cover the new family size?

GraciousWords:
Sample of the form online says "type or print in black ink", so I would assume you can write, sign, print, scan and upload in the relevant placeholder.

What do you mean by "add extra siblings". If you are adding someone else other than a new spouse or new baby to the family form, you may want to include an LOE saying why the person was not on your previous family information provided to IRCC e.g. did you forget to add the sibling before or was the sibling recently adopted. Sorry if I have misunderstood.

Thanks for your response. They online provide space for uptown 3 siblings and I need to add more on the form.

Hi,

I got request to upload completed IMM 5406 form for me and my wife after adding our new baby. Do I need to print and sign then scan? Also I need to add extra siblings to the IMM 5406 form, can anyone advise how to do this?

Thanks

No, don't include it. Only include documents on each person's name.

Yes, include the cac and the document listing her as one of the directors.

Thanks for your response earlier. I have another 2 question please.

The property document only includes my dad’s name, can I upload this to my mum’s application as well?
My mum is also listed as director in the company, should I upload the company documents in her application as well?

Thanks a lot

Relevant documents from your parents to show their strong ties to Nigeria

Many thanks for your response. Can you please suggest what type of documents they can add to show their strong ties to Nigeria. They are retired and earn pension. My father also owns an Engineering firm but since he’s not paying for the trip we were not planning to include the firm’s bank statement.

Hello house,

I’m applying for visitors visa for my parents to visit me in the UK. I’m currently on a Tier 4 student visa. I have filled in the visa application form that they are visiting me and I will be paying for their trip. They have been to the UK previously to attend my undergraduate graduation. Can you please advise what documents to provide. Thanks

Medicals and POF to cover new family size

Thank you

Mmamaroon:
#PersonalOpinion based on the fact that you ALREADY have a valid COPR expiring in October.

Given the COVID impact on IRCC's operations, adding any extra dependents (spouse or children) may involve a delay in hearing back from IRCC, if you decide to have baby here and add him/her to your application. On the other hand, the response may not be delayed, we really don't know for sure.

Alternatively, since you already have COPR why not try applying for an AL on compassionate grounds (medical)....apply now (March) well before baby is due (July) and follow up on a weekly basis (to show how important it is to you). If the AL is approved, then:
* The snag is you must be prepared to land finally and provide proof this......not soft landing.
* The upside is that baby is an immediate citizen, you don't need to worry about getting a response or COPR revalidation or passport for baby in the era of scare booklet or scheduling medicals or saving more money for POF to cover an extra dependent.

All the best!

Thank you so much. I didn't think about the AL on compassionate grounds but it is worth trying.

Congratulations... hope you find the response you need.

Thank you

Hello house,

Our application has been approved and CoPR is valid until October. However, I don’t think we can land before then. We are expecting a baby in July. With the current restrictions, the baby might need to be born before we land. Also we are not ready to move permanently because I’m still studying so I’m not sure we can soft land. IRCC advised that if family composition changes then our application will be reevaluated. Does anyone have a similar experience? And does anyone have an idea what the reevaluation be based on?

Thanks
