Hi everyone,
We finally sent out my application (family class, spouse sponsorship, inland). The postal office says the package was received by cic on August 28th.
Now, I just figured I had used the old checklist, and hence, has not sent my police certificate upfront (though I included the Schedule A), as the new checklist asks to do.
All the other documents/forms are accurate.
As stressed as I could be, I would be happy if you can help me with some/any of these questions:
- Do you know of any application that has been rejected, or returned for using the older checklist (they update it in Feb. sometime it seems)?
- Anyone knowing or guessing how this is going to affect my application, if they don't reject or return it?
- What is the best way for me to proceed? I can have my police certificate ready in about a month (and the document has one month of validity!). Should I acquire one right away, and send it in (how would it even be linked to my paper application)? Or should I wait for CiC to get back and ask for a missing document? When is the expected timeline for that?
- I couldn't get through talking to a live agent to ask these rather general questions; any tips on how to navigate the CIC phone call system to get an agent regarding these kind of questions? Obviously I don't have an application number yet ...
