When you make submissions for your sponsorship application through an immigration lawyer, the immigration lawyer will prepare a letter addressed to Immigration not only to convince why your sponsorship application should be apporved but also to explain why her birthday does not match the date entered on your PR application.

Thank you.

When I applied for Canadian Permanent Residence, I put down the wrong birthday for my mom by mistake. My brother, replying on my application information, also put down the wrong birthday for her again for his PR application. Now, we wish to sponsor her to Canada but her birth certificate indicates a different birthday than what our applications said. How can I fix this problem? I called CIC and they told us to include an explanation letter in our sponsorship application. What does this mean? Please help.

Thank you.

In order to renounce your citizenship, you must prove that you are or that you will become a citizen of a country other than Canada if your application to renounce is approved, not live in Canada, be at least 18 years old, and not be a threat to Canada’s security or part of a pattern of criminal activity.

Hope this helps.

You may renounce your citizenship by making an application for “Application to Renounce Canadian Citizenship (Form CIT 0302).” To qualify, you must not reside in Canada, be a citizen of a country other than Canada, or show that you will become a citizen of a country other than Canada, if your application to renounce is accepted, not be a threat to Canada’s security, and be 18 years of age or older.

Your supporting documents include a birth certificate, evidence that establishes your Canadian citizenship, evidence that establishes you are or will become a citizen of a country other than Canada and evidence that you live outside Canada.

Hope this helps.
