Hi All,

my 5 year old daughter's citizenship was returned along with mine as we submitted it together. my application was considered complete but my daughters said incomplete due to birth certificate was not attached.

Initially when we submitted in June, the document checklist did not mention to provide birth certificate , but now its saying to attach one.

"Applications received at our Case Processing Centre (CPC) in Sydney, NS on January 11, 2018 or later must use forms from October 2017 or later (indicated on the lower left corner of the form). Application forms that are not up-to-date will be returned as incomplete"

when we downloaded the application form it said CIT 0003(12-2018)E but now in the CIC website the new application form says CIT 0003(06-2019) in the lower left corner of the application form for minors. not sure which one to submit now

should we submit the same application again or do we need to fill out a new form attach all the documents and take new photos?
will my application processing also get delayed? there is a stamp on my application which says received on July 17th 2019.

please advice.
thank you

1. New form, it depends on the date of the photos, whether you require new ones or not. Check the citizenship checklist.
