Common-law Sponsorship - Do my photocopies need to be 'certified true copies'?
I am having letters of support notarized but in reading the application guide there isa section on having photocopies notarized. See here under "Certified True Copies": Guide 3999 - Sponsorship of a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child living outside Canada
Do I need to do with that all my photocopies e.g. passports?

Hi
1. No. It is unlikely that you need any documents certified, unless specifically asked for in the document checklist for the office where you application will be processed.
