Everything must have an original (hand-written) signature, not just typed.

We suffered 3 months delay because of that minor not signing on Sch A it MUST also be signed by hand beside typed full name. AND it does not cost millions for them to add few words on the form itself, even if it is CLEARLY mentioned on GUIDE.

I couldn't remember if I hand-signed or not on Schedule A and was worried my application would be returned but I received my AOR 2 days ago. Do you know if it means my application was complete and they started the process? What are the chances of the application being returned after AOR if the signature is missing on Schedule A?

You’re not the first and won’t be the last to be caught out by this. The form hasn’t been updated since the days when it was sent electronically, later on in the process. Now you can send it with the paper application, the signature is required, but as you say, the form doesn’t state this, just the guide.

AOR is only given for complete applications. The whole purpose of acknowledging that receipt is to tell you that you have a complete application and all forms are the correct versions, completed correctly, no missing signatures, etc. Once you have AOR, you’re safe in the knowledge that there’s no errors in your application.

You may get asked for things later in the process, a criminal check may have expired, you may have to get updated photos, etc, but these are pretty minor and easy things for you to solve.

Relax knowing your application is now being processed!

No problem at all! AOR is an important step. It’s the first real check of the application package by IRCC, looking for any obvious errors and omissions. You could still be asked for addition things during processing, but these will likely be because of the circumstances of your application, like the things I’ve mentioned previously, or extra proof for common law relationships if the officer needs more proof, etc.

One of the checklists items was missing signature so yes there is a big chance they will send it back
