Hi!
Our application package was returned because we forgot to tick a box in one of the forms. For those who experienced this, how far will this set out application back? Are we back to square one? We submitted in May, but are we now July applicants?
Thanks!

Hi,

I answered your question in the May 2019 thread as well.

Yes unfortunately when you tick the missing box (use the same application you sent in May, no need for new applications), it'll go to back of the line and. you will be July applicants.

Best of luck

So we don’t need to redo a calc?
On my side I sent app in May, just before going on a trip outside canada

So if I resend the application ,do I need to redo the presence calc?

Do you need to sign again the application (meaning printing a new copy and edit the date?)

An application that is received more than 90 days after if was signed will be rejected.
Keep that in mind if you just correct your mistake and send the application again.

What’s the address for resending citizenship application? Is it specifically to the PO box? Mailing address in the letter is PO box. I am using a courier.
