Well, you can't raise a webform request until you've received your AOR. I mean you can but it will be pointless because they will not have your information on file.

What you want to do it wait until you get AOR and once you do, immediately raise a webform and let them know that you've made a mistake with the form and you'd like to update it. See what they have to say and go from there.

Thanks for the suggestion. Sure i'll wait for AOR. I'll update this thread on the progress. Does receiving AOR mean IRCC is good with all information?

To send correct information to IRCC shall I print last page of paper application, handwrite/ type letter of explanation(with my identification) and send it to IRCC address mentioned in the paper application? This might confuse them.
Would keeping quiet and waiting for them to provide next steps be better?
Wait for them. If they open the file, provide and explanation. If they return it, make the corrections and resubmit. Nothing can be done at the this stage.

I did an online application. Should I send a paper explanation letter?
You can send explanation letter or webform it doesn't matter.

In my case I completely forgot to indicate 1 place of employment, I sent handwritten explanation latter before AOR received, it was enough. I can see this correspondence was attached to file in ATIP file I requested.

That's really helpful. Appreciate you sharing the info. In that case I will also send a hand written explanation letter requesting for correction.

Thanks. Since I haven't received AOR there is no provision to upload explanation letter for online application. Would you be able to share some details on how to go about the process.
I'm submitting a request by going to Application (cic.gc.ca) and to Others section. It shows a form where I guess I can request for corrections.
I believe you can still upload by UCI number.
I'm not 100% sure though, but you can email them anytime.

As other members suggested after receiving AOR I was able to raise a WebForm request to correct "city of sign" section in my application to current city. Later IRCC customer care was able to confirm that the WebForm was received and corrections applied.
Thank you all the members who quickly gave valuable suggestions at the time of need.
Finally, I'm now a Canadian!!
