I have just submitted my application and realised that I have made a tiny mistake, in form 5532 in order to sign it I have used Firefox and then 'saved as PDF', but I did not 'print to PDF'. So the file is not 'locked' / the cells are still editable.

What are the chances of the application being returned or delayed?

How did you signed it then?

I have filled the form on Adobe, then opened it on Firefox which has let me type my full name and date, then hit save. I know people have been using this method in the past without issues, but I noticed after submitting that those people where doing 'print to PDF' on Firefox which locks all cells.
 
Ah, that's interesting. Firefox somehow disregards that the signature field shouldn't be editable (Acrobat Reader at least doesn't allow it unless printed). You are in somewhat unique situation or at least it wasn't previously reported.

Not way to be sure, but I guess you are ok as long as you signed in all required spaces (IIRC 4 in total)

Yeah, I signed all spaces. I feel so stupid to have done such a silly mistake but I was very tired and go stuck with the Adobe not letting me use the signatures and just found the first fix.

I really hope my application does not get returned...
