Hello Everyone;
My mom's and in-laws Record of Landing document was laminated because I thought that this would preserve the documents for along time. Apparently this amounts to the tampering of the documents and, according to the CIC Officer, these documents are no longer valid. The CIC Officer also told us that we cannot request a replacement document because it is not lost, stolen or destroyed!!
Now my mom and in-laws do not have a valid Record of Landing document and have to rely on their PR cards for crossing the border. This may become an issue at the time of citizenship or other applications. Any idea how can I rectify this mistake?
Thanks for your help in advance,
Sridhar.
