Applying for permanent residence from within Canada: Spouse or common-law partner in Canada class (IMM 5289)

Where to submit your application

Before you submit your application, gather your spouse or common-law partner’s forms together with yours. Ensure all forms are completed, signed and are accompanied by the supporting documents, including proof of the medical examination and your receipt. If any of the required documents are not sent, your application will not be processed.

Send everything to:

Case Processing Centre Vegreville
Permanent Residence Applications
6212-55th Avenue
Vegreville, AB
T9C 1W3

The envelope will require more postage than a normal letter. To avoid having your application returned to you, have the post office weigh it before mailing.

Change of address or status

If your address changes after you have submitted your application, let us know immediately by contacting the Call Centre or using our online change of address form found on our website.

If there are any changes to your family status, you must advise us immediately. Examples of changes to family status include marriage, divorce, births and deaths. You may advise us of changes by mail (Refer to the Case Processing Centre address above) or by contacting the Call Centre. Be sure to clearly state your file number.
