The post got buried without getting comments. Posting this again one more time, hopefully last. )
First for all, congratulations to all who have gotten their payments charged and/or received PER email, or moved further up the ladder.
Feel sorry for those whose applications have been returned, but they can always try again with modifications as needed.
All the best to those who have yet to apply, like myself.

Have received a couple of replies so far mentioning my use of marriage affidavit instead of certificate. I have been using the affidavit all along so far, never had an issue. Hoping that CIC is not different than similar other institutions. So, going with the affidavit.
Please let me know if there is anything that I missed. Planning to send it by Tuesday.
