Well, it's not a big deal. They just asked for new ones rather than returning the whole package (that was awful lol). It's an easy fixSwedentoQuebec said:

We went to Blacks for the new ones and asked for their most matte paper after explaining the situation. It was still pretty glossy (to me at least) just not as glossy as the other ones which we got done at Costco.
I even brought the paper with instructions!! Also, I wrote my application in french(thought it would show them I'm fluent in French since I want to settle down in Quebec) but now I'm starting to panic what if my application takes longer because they need to process it in French in London :S ??
That's what they said about my photos, too. Apparently they didn't know as much about it as they thought they did lol. Yeah, the photos are expensive. We spent around $150 just in photos altogether.SwedentoQuebec said:but where I took mine they said they knew what photos where needed for PR applications, total rip off
Hope this helps some.Email them. Like now! Most likely they've filed the document and then forgot about your file. I was in progress for almost 4 months, this is what happened to me.KatieandHarry said:
French shouldn't be a problem... most federal agents are required to speak french, and it might go quicker - because from the Scandinavian countries + Uk + Ireland, not many people would send their application in french... so maybe they have one dedicated French speaking officer... I thought about writing mine in French as well, but then my partner doesn't speak it, so we decided to do everything in english to make it easier on whoever would read the application.SwedentoQuebec said:but where I took mine they said they knew what photos where needed for PR applications, total rip off
Probably a little more waiting, but if they're asking for an extension of your medicals, then it's good news because they only do that when they are almost ready to issue the PR... and somebody is looking at your file, so that's good news!davidmarsden38 said:
+1 to this. All employees of the Federal Government are required to be able to speak French. It is absolutely your right to apply in French, and it will not slow down your application at all. If you got your GCSM notes and somehow, it did slow the application down then they would be in violation of laws on official bilingualism.Sweden said:
yeah you are probably right, tanks for calming me down everyone I'm just getting a bit anxious about the whole waiting, I just want my DM so bad that I freak out over nothing these days! Thanks again for the support!!DGT said:
Did you have to apply for and send the RCMP certificate yourself? If this is just an internal RCMP certificate it should be very quick - if that's the case I'd wait a couple of days and then email again. Just say something like 'I spoke to an immigration specialist who told me that RCMP certificates are usually delivered very quickly, so I am wondering if there are any issues with my file and anything I can do to help resolve them'rebecassss said:
