Personal information

Personal information is the smallest section of your profile and the one everything else is checked against. Your date of birth, citizenship, residence, and status appear on almost every other screen.

The page at Profile → Personal Information opens as a Basic Information summary card and a PR Journey card. Selecting Update — or Complete info if the summary is not complete yet — opens the four-section editor: Identity, Citizenship & residence, Family & status, and Sponsor eligibility.

The Basic Information card showing name, age, citizenship, residence, marital status, and immigration goal, above the PR Journey card.

Section 1 — Identity

Field	What it means	Required
First Name	Given name as it appears on your documents. Up to 100 characters.	Yes
Last Name	Family name as it appears on your documents. Up to 100 characters.	Yes
Date of Birth	Helper text: Used for age calculation and eligibility assessment. Must imply an age between 16 and 100.	Yes
Email Address	Displayed but disabled — Email cannot be changed here.	Read-only
Phone Number	Include the country code. At least 10 digits; digits, spaces, hyphens, plus signs, and brackets only.	No

Section 2 — Citizenship & residence

Field	What it means	Required
Citizenship Country	The country you hold citizenship in.	Yes
Country of Residence	Where you live now.	Yes
Current Immigration Status	Citizen, Permanent Resident, Work Permit Holder, Study Permit Holder, Visitor / Tourist, Refugee / Protected Person, or Other Status. The helper text names your country of residence, because the status is your status there.	Yes
City in Canada	Searchable list of Canadian locations. Appears only when your country of residence is Canada. Province will be automatically determined from your city.	Yes when you live in Canada
Province	Not entered directly — set from the city you pick. Cleared if you move your residence out of Canada.	Derived

Two behaviours are worth knowing before you edit this section:

• Changing your country of residence clears your immigration status. You pick it again for the new country. If both your citizenship and residence are Canada, Lexpoint sets the status to Citizen instead of clearing it.
• A Canadian citizen living in Canada must be Citizen or Permanent Resident. Any other status is rejected with If you are a citizen living in Canada, your status must be “Citizen”.

Section 3 — Family & status

Field	What it means	Required
Marital Status	Never Married / Single, Legally Married, Common-Law Partnership, Divorced, Widowed, or Legally Separated.	Yes
Immigration goal	Get Permanent Residence, Work in Canada, Study in Canada, Visit Canada, Apply for Citizenship, or Other / Not sure yet. Helper text: What you are mainly working toward in Canada — used to tailor your dashboard and tools.	Yes

Spouse and children details are not entered here. When your marital status is Married or Common-Law and no spouse is on file yet, the section says so: Spouse and children details live under Family — not here.

Marital status and your spouse record

Marital status on this form and the spouse entry in Family and dependants are kept in step with each other, which produces three behaviours:

What you do	What Lexpoint does
Set the status to Married or Common-Law with no spouse on file	Blocks the save and offers Add Spouse / Partner. Your marital status updates automatically once the spouse is added.
Switch between Married and Common-Law	Updates the existing spouse record’s relationship to match.
Set the status to Divorced, Separated, or Widowed with a spouse on file	Asks When did this take effect?, then archives the spouse record with that date.

Archiving a spouse happens here, not in Family

The archive button on a spouse card in the family directory is disabled by design. Ending a relationship is done by changing your marital status on this form.

Section 4 — Sponsor eligibility

These questions are about you as a sponsor. They are asked only if you are a Canadian citizen, or a permanent resident living in Canada. For anyone else the section reads Not needed — these questions apply to Canadian citizens and to permanent residents living in Canada.

Field	What it means	Required
Became a permanent resident as a sponsored spouse or partner	Toggle.	No
Date you became a permanent resident	Appears when the toggle above is on.	No
Sponsored a spouse or partner before	Toggle.	No
Start date of that undertaking	Appears when the toggle above is on.	No
Receiving social assistance	Toggle — Other than for a disability.	No

When your spouse or partner is connected with you, their report reads these answers — see Link with your partner. What they mean for a sponsorship is IRCC’s to decide; see immigratic.com.

PR Journey

The PR Journey card — Where you are today — is optional. Start (or Update) opens Where are you in your PR journey?, two short branches of yes/no questions:

Branch	Asks
Express Entry	Whether you have a profile, whether you received an Invitation to Apply and from which draw, and whether and when you submitted your PR application.
Provincial Nominee	Whether you have a profile in a provincial program, whether you received a provincial invitation or nomination and from which draw, and whether and when you submitted your provincial application.

Answering no skips the rest of that branch. Your answers help tailor your dashboard. If a branch is synced from your case with Immigratic, it is shown read-only.

Exporting your personal data

The summary view carries an Export menu: Excel (.xlsx), JSON (Human), or JSON (Machine). If no personal information has been saved yet, it is disabled with the tooltip Complete your personal info to export. A successful export shows a request ID you can quote to support.
