1. Steps to Correct Your IMM 5669 Mistakes:
1. Call IRCC to Request Your Temporary File Number (if AOR is not received yet).
This may help you submit a webform with your updated IMM 5669.
If you have your UCI number, try using that in your webform request.
2. Fill Out a Corrected IMM 5669 Form
Ensure all details are accurate, especially in the Personal History, Address History, and Work History sections.

Explain the mistakes you made in your original submission.
Apologize for the oversight and clarify the correct information.
State that you are proactively providing the corrected form to avoid misrepresentation.
4. Submit via Webform
Attach your corrected IMM 5669 and LoE.
Select the correct category: Permanent Residence -> Express Entry / Non-Express Entry -> Upload Documents.
