Mistake on Supplementary Travel Info

[spookyb]

Hi guys,

I was just looking over my Supplementary Travel Info form (IMM 5562), and noticed that I have made an error and written down the wrong month for one of my travels. I should have written 12-2002 to 01-2003 (20 days) and accidentally wrote 05-2002 to 01-2003 (20 days). I had all of my travel written down on a piece of paper and was copying it from there, and accidentally read the month from a different line, and even missed it when I was proof-reading later. Just saw it today. For clarity, the travel was to my home country. The dates I wrote down are obviously not 20 days and this is a clear error.

Should I send an updated form and clarify the error? I'm really worried that a stupid mistake will cause major problems. Could senior members please let me know what I should do to avoid issues?

Thanks!

Bumping this up to see if any of the seniors can offer their opinion.....

I do not think this is a major issue, however, you can send an email to CPP Ottawa explaining the mistake and ask them if you should submit a corrected form.

Thanks Sashali. Could you please comment on why you think this is not a major mistake? Instead of the 20 days I traveled, it now seems I was staying in a country other than the one I was in for 8 months!! That would completely contradict the information in my background declaration. Should I not send them a corrected form anyway?

Hi spookyb

You can re-send the revised supplementary form to ottpilot-immigration @ cic.gc.ca. Please put your application number in the email subject and give a brief description about the document.
I had a similar issue with one of my documents, I emailed the revised one to them. They responded within a week, saying that they added my revised document.
Hope this helps. All the best !!

tdcec,

Thank you very much for the valuable info. Just out of curiosity, what was the mistake that you corrected?
