Application cancelled for only sending certified copy for translations

[EdithF86]

Hi all,

My application got rejected because I did not add the original document for my pcc from Belgium.
Because it was in Dutch, I did as instructed in the following link:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=018&top=4

So I sent the certified copy, the translation (and affidavit)

I did this for all my documents, I had many many documents and they all needed translation. There is no way I could have added all the originals, all the certified copies and all the translations, all my files were already very compressed.

I originally just had originals plus translations but my lawyer told me I needed certified copies so I got them last minute, moved heaven and earth to get them in time.

I don't understand, did I do it wrong????

What can I do now???

What did you apply for? Generally original PCCs must be provided along with the translations.

Yeah I got confused by the 3 bullet points on that link and by what my lawyer said,so I replaced all my originals by certified copies.
I have all the originals available, they could have just asked Anything I can do?

Resubmit. The PCC is an upfront requirement. If you don't submit it, your application will be rejected as incomplete.

Check all the forms to make sure they're still up to date and resubmit.

I can't resubmit, CSR 438.

Oh. Well, I don't think you can ask for reconsideration if you didn't comply with the instructions for initial submission.
