Problems in downloading Form IMM5257~
- Thread starter calventeng
- Start date
I could download the file but it always shows " wait for the file to appear up"
but when I tried with adobe acrobat it works and I have attached it in application.
but when I tried to print it, I could print only "wait for the file to appear up" instead of the filled form,
I am worried if the format will be correct when they open my attached file in the application, any info?
thanks

You need to right click on the form then save target as to your computer. Once saved, again, right click on the file, open with > adobe reader.
That must not be so hard though. Just right click and save as...

This is due to a secure form of PDF -
https://helpx.adobe.com/livecycle/kb/xfa-pdf-forms-policy-protected-documents-not-displayed.html
It is used for protected docs. Unfortunately, Chrome's PDF default add-in does not support this (neither does firefox/safari or IE)
If you can find the pdf plugin to disable it as suggested (For new versions of Chrome, this is difficult to find).
Else, goto Adobe Document cloud: https://documentcloud.adobe.com/link/home/?locale=en-US
Login or register.
Download and install the plugin for your Computer
https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/download-install-acrobat-subscription.html
Download the forms you need to your computer
Open them in the Adobe document cloud app
You will see the filling in forms in(secured) format there.
Update as needed and save on your computer
When you upload to the Canadian immigration site (with your GCKey), you might still see the 'Please Wait' message. The updates are there but in hidden tags.
Hope this helps
