Dear @Miss bee
I ordered my CBSA notes last week and today I got an email that for my notes to be given, I need to send them my first page of the passport. Is this normal?

Thank you

When you request CBSA notes (Access to Information and Privacy request), the agency sometimes asks for proof of identity before releasing records, especially if the request involves personal immigration history, travel history, or enforcement records. The passport bio page (first page with your photo and details) is one of the standard proofs they accept. However, you should be cautious, because identity documents are very sensitive. Here’s how you can check if the request is genuine:
Sender’s email domain
– Genuine CBSA/ATIP requests will usually come from an address ending in @CBSA-asfc.gc.ca or @tbs-sct.gc.ca (if it’s the ATIP Online service).
– If it’s from a Gmail, Outlook, or other non-government domain, it’s suspicious.

1. Method of your request
   – If you applied through the official ATIP Online Request Portal (https://atip-aiprp.tbs-sct.gc.ca/), you may also see updates and document requests inside the portal. Check there to confirm.

Hello @misbee,

I submitted my Non-EE application to the IRCC January 2025 and I’m waiting for my AOR .. Now, I realise that I didn’t sign Schedule 4A form so they return my file or can I resubmit new form without application number?

Hello @misbee,

IRCC hasn’t created your file in their system yet. If a mandatory form like Schedule 4A (Economic Classes – Provincial Nominees) is missing a signature, your application package is considered incomplete. In almost all cases, they will return your application by mail along with your payment (if you used a paper payment).
If your Schedule 4A was missing a signature, IRCC will return the entire application package to you. You’ll need to re-sign, repackage, and resubmit it. The only “silver lining” is that you won’t lose the application fee — it will be returned or unprocessed.
Because PNP streams often have caps or deadlines, it’s a good idea to start preparing your corrected package now so you can resubmit quickly if IRCC returns it.

Thank you misbee for quick reply but if I re sign repackage can they consider my application as beginning or recent queue ? Means I lose my time

@Miss bee Thank you much for your reply.

This is the letter I wrote, kindly read and let me know if this is sufficient or to include any points in it!
Date: 2025-07-03
To:
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)
Subject: Letter of Explanation – Omission of Part-Time Employment in PR Application
Dear Officer,
I am writing this letter in good faith to respectfully provide clarification regarding a part-time employment position that was inadvertently omitted from my permanent residence (PR) application submitted through the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP).
From June 2023 to February 2024, I was employed as a part-time merchandiser at Shoppers Drug Mart, working approximately 16 to 20 hours per week. During this time, I was also employed full-time at Tim Hortons, which is the basis of my SINP nomination and primary work experience referenced in my application.
At the time of submission, I did not mention the Shoppers Drug Mart position because I believed that this part-time job—being unrelated to the nominated occupation and having limited weekly hours—would not significantly impact the assessment of my application. I now understand that full transparency regarding all employment history is important, regardless of the role or duration, and I sincerely apologize for this oversight.
I want to emphasize that this omission was not intentional and was made inadvertently and in good faith. I have always made every effort to provide truthful and accurate information to IRCC, and I am fully committed to maintaining that integrity. As soon as I realized the error, I took steps to correct the record and provide this clarification.
Please find below the omitted employment details:
•Position: Part-Time Merchandiser
•Employer: Shoppers Drug Mart
•Duration: June 2023 – February 2024
•Average Hours: 16–20 hours per week
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding. I trust that this letter demonstrates my willingness to act in full transparency and maintain the honesty and integrity expected of all applicants.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

And let me know revealing this would not backfire, right? I am afraid of that consequences.

Did this affect your application? I am in a similar situation. I forgot to include a job I did for 4days and 8days in my PR application and only realized after gathering my documents for citizenship. I intend to declare these jobs in my citizenship application but is worried that there may be serious consequences.
