A small correction. I think the only person who got the application returned so far is sipkenz.
I agree on the sheet it doesn't show... Only the sipkenz.

The cc I used (a friend's) got charged right away - for both the CEC and BOWP application. I noticed that this isn't the case with everyone else... what does this mean?

Did you guys all use a foreign or Canadian cc? And did you do the payment online? I am confused as to why in my case the cc got charged straight away (or my friend is wrong).

LC,

Im not surprised, if it gets charged right away. Literally 2-3 days after they receive your documents, CIC charges your CC. Perhaps then docs are put in a que to be reviewed.

Dont worry about it.

Guys, a small clarification.
Why the fields are marked in red? I had a few fields marked in red across my ID so I have filled it and uncolored it.
Thanks in advance!

My application got returned. My Birth Certificate was not translated.

Is it ok if translate it myself and notarized?
Sorry to hear that. Hope it goes well the next time. I'm worried now because my national ID was not "officially translated" (it's just an ID card with my name, DOB, etc). - though it says "if applicable". =S
I'm just praying mine doesn't get returned....

Also, I think either some people are confused or I am confused about something in the spreadsheet. Someone please clarify this for me:
Date received at CIO sydney = date that Canada Post said the documents were delivered and received
ECAS: application received = Date we see on ECAS shows that the application was received OR the date it says it was received?

My national ID card is not translate either. As I know we can translate a document but not a card like NID or DL. But the attorney wrote a note that this is my NID and mention the data of it such a name DOB.
Date of recieve, yes it is the dilivered date that you can see in your tracking page with Canada post, UPS, FedEx ect. But Ecase mean the recieving date that you can see on CIC web page as it received.

Question... If CIO rejects and sends back your application, but it's a mistake, will they accept it and process your application after all if you have a good reason?

I am just asking because I didn't get my birth certificate translated, as it has the English translation in a small print on there already. But now I wonder, if they don't notice that and therefore reject my application (at first), can it be "re-accepted" afterwards?

Sorry guys, it's just an evening of immigration insecurities again. Should probably spend less time on the forum here while waiting for my AOR ::)

Normally if you have any document mistake, or you didn't submit requested document, the file will be return from centralized intake office. you will not get AOR. but for now you have to wait till you get the AOR. just in case if your file return, they will send you the explanation letter along with a file package. if file return because of your birth certificate translation. just write a letter telling that it is already translated along with original language.

Good Luck Dear

I got my national ID certified translated (original copied verified as well) and submitted with my application. I think they need be if they are not in English.

Do you have to pay again to re-apply if translation of a document is missing (national ID)?
