Looks like CIC wants to tie up lots of the 2015 loose ends before the end of the year. Grats you guys!

Hello all,
I was curious to know if anyone has had experience with sending their FBI background check document after submitting their application package. My wife and I were planning to send our package at the very first of the year. However, I just checked with the FBI and they estimate the background check not beginning processing until at least another month. We are debating whether to wait for that document and send it all toegther, or just mailing it to CIC once we receive it.

It is stated in the application information that a complete application is required or else they will send it back to you. However, many people have had no issues with attaching their FBI receipt to the application along with a note stating that processing times are long and that you will forward the document when you get it.

There is the risk that it may not make it to your application, or that a CIC agent will reject your application for being incomplete. It's a gamble.
