[@ripulvij7968]

I am thinking out loud - One way to avoid using translator can be to include only those whatsapp/fb/insta screenshots where your conversation was in English. It is going to take time to find that whole conversation in one screen fit but this can save time and will serve both the requirements.

[@businezzbombz]

Greta video! Thanks for all the help.

I thought there’s only a 10-page limit for the proof of contact? You did not get any issues with your 47-page fb conversation file?

[@mohammedtahamansuri8565]

Hi Suyash, Love your content! I applied for my wife’s spousal sponsorship in September 2023, and we’ve been waiting ever since. The process feels so slow, and it’s tough not knowing when things will move forward. Do you have any tips on how to stay updated or maybe speed things up? Would really appreciate any advice from you or the community. Thanks a lot!

[@1921_Ethio_T]

Thank you for sharing your real time experience brother. Question:- can I get me and my wife’s social media conversations translated here in Canada on behalf of applicant? I am her representative on application fyi. TIA

[@ae03yy]

Hi there Can you create a tutorial for how to get WhatsApp call/video logs ? My spouse and I communicate by phone and video calls on WhatsApp. I’m not able to get the entire call logs history using the iPhone because it only displays the last 3 weeks. 😢

[@MovieFastForward24]

First of all thank you so much for this! I have a question in regards to the length of this proof of contact: do we need to cover the time span of when the couple is living separately or just upload anything you have? In other words, what is the requirement? To cover the gap after the marriage when the couple is living apart, or we need to show the whole thing since we started dating?

[@GreenIguanaQi]

Thank you so much for the videos. In regards to this video, printing as a pdf from the facebook messenger "html file" to a pdf causes a specific formatting problem in the pdf. If there are any photos in the messages, the photos will sometimes cover over portions of text. If you have any tips to fix this, I would be so happy to know. Thank you.

[@HitSubmitCanada]

As long as the text is clearly visible for the majority of the conversation, minor formatting issues should be OK. Even my chats with my wife had some formatting issues for Facebook. I just submitted them as is. I also had Instagram and WhatsApp chats in good shape so my Facebook formatting issues were not given that much priority. If you absolutely want to fix the issue then you can research the issue on some Adobe reader forums where people have posted solutions. In my opinion, save yourself the time of adjusting the formatting right now. Focus on procuring official/government documents, filling out the forms correctly and completely and making sure that your application is strong Once you have all the information and documents ready, and you think you can spare some time then you can look into the issue otherwise you can just submit as is

[@nytrowgen2889]

Hello, Thank you for this amazing tutorial, but one question, what about those explict conversation and pictures we sent to each other, can I delete those? and if yes, how

[@HitSubmitCanada]

absolutely you don’t have to provide those. select what you want and cover a decent duration. you should be fine

[@nytrowgen2889]

@@HitSubmitCanada Hey Suyash, Thank you so much for responding. We lived together for 2 years and I just wanna clarify that they only want the part when she moved back to Canada and Me back to my home country right, Not the whole entire conversation. Just the part where we separated ways and still in touch with each other? Or the whole timeline where we met up until now

[@HitSubmitCanada]

for the times that you were living together, you can skip chats and focus on other cohabitation documents instead. But even if you were to include chats from those times when you were living together, you are fine(it will just take more space). Use your best judgement. I have shown in the video how I would approach it

[@Christyxx1]

hi there , I just had a quick question , I am using the method of exporting the chats from WhatsApp but the chat does not export images within the chat. Should I include tho or just the chat text alone ?

[@dianea4896]

Question What would you do for voice notes?

[@sonamdakpa2189]

It's says Mexican 10 pages so can we upload more than 10 pages?

[@frederickhetu5535]

We have 3 years of chat on WhatsApp.... When I export the chat WhatsApp has a limit that in our case doesn't cover more than just the last few weeks. We can't go back further in time to get older chats 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@MsHetvishah]

Hello sir, I must say your videos are excellent and they are so well explained that we don't have any confusion. Your videos are helping us a lot with the preparation we have to do for our PR file. Also if you please kindly help me out with one of my doubts i.e., As you know it is obvious we have good chats along with embarrassing talks and sometimes fight chats as well. So is there a possibility Could we erase that chat line or part of that chat from the word file which we exported from WhatsApp or it has to be mandatorily added? Kindly help us by clearing our doubts, it would mean a lot to us. Thanking you for your help. Have a good day.

Can't say at this point as the changes have just been announced. And some forms have not been updated to allow digital signatures. if your forms are clear and complete, then hand signatures will likely not cause a rejection in my opinion
