Dear all
We are a Syrian family, we had an oportunity to be privately sponsored in Canada last year, we filled all the forms and it was submitted to IRCC and we got an active file number.
Few days back i was reviewing the submited forms and i discovered that i have made a terrible mistake in schedule A in two questions, section C if i have previously made a refugee claim with canada or united nations or any other country, i was soo stupid not to read the whole question asuming its talking about Canada and i ticked no, while the correct answer is yes because 2 years ago i traveled to the UK and applied for asylum but then 20 days later i have withdrawn my asylum application and left the UK voluntary.
Same goes for question D asking if i was ever ben refused refugee or visitor visa in Canada or any other country, i did not read the whole question and answered no, while the correct one is yes i have applied for US visa twice and was refused.
As soon i discovered the mistake i sent an email to ircc requesting information about my application, they told me it is being processed in Canada now, i sent them back and asked them what to do if i forgot to mention somthing in my submited schedule A, they said please send the new and complete schedule A, but they did not mention a time frame for sending the document, i actually did not recieve any email from them before that requesting any correction, so will sending them the updated documents at this stage solve the conflict before it is too late.
My lawyer is suggesting that we wait untill we hear from them regarding updated documents, or wait untill the interview since they will request an updated schedule A any ways on the interview, and that sending the document at the current stage will cause the application to lose all its progress and go back to its initial reviewing stage.
I am terrified because of what happend, and i am afraid to lose the whole application because of a stupid unintentional mistake.
What should i do do i send the new documents now since i already informed them i forgot somthing, and do u think this will undermine my credibility, or best case scenario will send back my application to the initial stage.
Please help me members and experts, all help will be apreciated.
Thank you
