CPR Change in Family Situation
Hi all,
I have received my confirmation of permanent residency and am about to flagpole to pick up my PR card. However, in the document it states that I must inform them of any change to my family situation prior to doing so. I've tried contacting the CIC call centre to ask them/let them know - they're useless; they make you go through a load of options then the call hangs up. Infuriating.
So my situation is that I live in Canada, applied for PR through the Canadian Experience Class, and since my application I have passed the time considered to be in a common law relationship. However, my girlfriend is a Canadian citizen by birth, so do I still need to inform them given that it doesn't really affect anything? If I do have to inform them, will I have to go through any further steps prior to picking up my PR?
Cheers for any help.
