You can order GCMS notes for free if you're within Canada. However, there is no point in ordering these notes until you have received the AOR.

Mistake 1:
Question 11.
I put "Yes" checkmark for "I was employed", but forgot to explicitly specify "No" for other options such as "I was in school".
Hopefully, it's not a big issue because I was continuously employed by the same company during my whole stay in Canada.

Mistake 2:
Question 13.
I did NOT check either "YES" or "NO" checkboxes pertaining to whether I held immigrant status at a different country. HOWEVER, I did fill the table below it,indicating that I hold citizenship in my native country.

Are those mistakes worthy of a return of my application ?

Quick q for those who applied with family (i.e. with minor):

Minor application form has different mailing address mentioned than adult application, i.e. it has "Grant Minor" or "Grant Adult" at the end, rest address is same. As per minor application, we should be sending it along with parents application. i want to know how other people has sent the application with minor applying.

I made Mistake 1 too. It is unknown whether app will be returned. Will have to wait and see. Probably depends on the officer going over the app.

I don't think those are big mistakes. Unless our application are filtered by robot/machine, which checks box first & if not selected return the application lol...
Any person checking the application will easily see you filled the information required & that what they will be looking.

Oh yes I forgot that my folks are now perm resident - I ordered ATIP for 5 bucks like 10 times in 203-2014
I think anyone living inside can order for free even if you are on visitor visa. I did it on behalf of my wife a while ago and she had to give her permit scanned copy

if you are the only one who sent the application (i,e, no other family member in the same package) then i don't think there is any problem. Also it only requires name of the applicant not the date of birth.
