Hi everyone,
I received AOR under CEC Express entry and already submitted BOWP yesterday but then i realized while filling the form IMM 5710a I have made some mistakes. Please suggest me what I should I do now :(
1. At the EDUCATION section it requires to give *Field and level of study of highest level of post secondary education
I supposed write Tourism and Hospitality Bachelor , but there is not enough space so I only put Tourism and Hospitality
2. At the EMPLOYMENT history section it requires to Give details of your employment for the past 10 years ...
I only filled in my current employment but skipped the previous ones
3. I uploaded AOR at the Client Information section but I was just simply upload the AOR without any explanation about that
4. I did NOT provide the form Schedule 1 - Application for a temporary Resident Visa Made Outside Canada (IMM 5257) because I'm in Canada and on PGWP right now so I think this form is not for me. Am I right?
So, should I email Question@cic.gc.ca about the mistakes that I have made on my application or what else I can do now anyone please suggest me. Thank you so much !!

Hello. I believe you can have 2 alternatives that would involve reach IRCC through web-form (https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx) and not the email for questions. These are the alternatives I thought about:

1 - If your PGWP is still valid. You can withdraw this first application, and create a new one in your CIC account with all correct documents uploaded (I'm not sure, but maybe you will be able to create a new application just after the first application is canceled). I believe you would be able to cancel the application in about 2 weeks after you submit the request through webform (check the section for 'withdrawing your application' in this link : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...s/work-canada/iec/after-apply-next-steps.html --> procedure should be the same for other online applications).

2 - You can send a message to them explaining this situation, uploading correct documents (corrected IMM5710, corrected Client information: should be Letter of Explanation, AOR, photocopy of the PGWP, + other documents if u want), and asking them to add a note to your work permit application with your explanation message and the new documents you have attached in the web form.

If I remember well, the IMM5257 is optional. So it's not a problem to not include it (you can apply for a TRV after u receive the BOWP).
I believe the option 1 would be the most interesting/safe if you have enough time for it.
