Completing the IMM 5992 E Declaration for People Affected by the Crisis in Gaza

On January 9, 2024, the Government of Canada announced special measures to facilitate the applications for temporary resident visas for Palestinians from Gaza who will be supported by a relative in Canada for a period of one year. These special measures (formally called the Special measures for extended family members in Gaza) will help 1000 people from Gaza reunite with their family in Canada.

Are you a Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident in Canada who wishes to support your family member from Gaza while they live in Canada on a temporary resident visa? If so, you will need to complete the IMM 5992 E form. Keep reading to understand the significance of this form and how Notarize.ca can assist you with a virtual notary appointment.

What Is the IMM5992E Statutory Declaration?

The IMM 5592 E Statutory Declaration to Confirm the Intent to Provide Support to Extended Family Members Affected by the Crisis in Gaza is a document required by the Government of Canada when a Palestinian person from Gaza is applying to enter Canada under the new special measures. 

The IMM 5992E is a declaration that confirms the extended family relationship between the person applying to come into Canada and their family member who is already a Canadian citizen or permanent resident. The Canadian citizen or permanent resident must be a spouse, common-law partner, child (regardless of age), grandchild, parent, grandparent or sibling of the person applying to enter Canada.

The IMM 5992E also confirms that the Canadian citizen or permanent resident agrees to act as an “anchor” and will support the person applying to come into Canada for one year.

Who can sign the IMM 5992E?

The IMM 5992 E form must be signed by a Canadian citizen or permanent resident who is an extended family member of the person wishing to enter Canada. This person is also called the “anchor.” 

You can download a copy of the IMM5992E form from the Government of Canada’s website: IMM 5992E

You will need to use Adobe Reader to open the document. 

Does the IMM5992E Stat Dec need to be notarized?

Yes, the IMM5992E form must be notarized. This means that the anchor person must sign the IMM 5992E in front of a notary public, commissioner of oaths or another person who is permitted to swear declarations. The notary public or commissioner must sign a declaration on the form confirming that the anchor person declared the information on the IMM5992E to be true.
