2 quick questions

1. Did you attach photocopy of your CELPIP results or original? I know instructions say photocopy but i have 2 original results copy so was thinking to send 1 of the original one if it may speed up process.
2. Did you attach photos to application or kept them as per sequence in document checklist?

I attached the photocopy of CELPIP result. I put my photos in another file protector. Don't attach it with staples. But you can put it to same place with application form. Maybe in a little envelop, it would be safer.
 
Let's force the limits of pickiness :)
I attached the color photocopies of my health insurance card and my driving license as government ID documents. But my health card was eroded in my wallet and the photo on it has some faded parts (still understandable it's me). Do you think it could create an issue?

They only needed 1 piece of photo ID out of the 2. So as long as your health card displays rest of the information just fine, i think you should be good.

I did a color photocopy of my CELPIP results and will be sending that. I don't want to give them a reason by saying you didn't send a photocopy(never know with CIC). I got my photos dne from London Drugs and they provide a small paper envelope. I mentioned all my details on that envelope and is attaching that to my checklist page using a paperclip.

Hi Just noticed the new thread for July applicants. I'll be eligible in a few days, however planning to apply on the 17th July. I have a few overseas trips so thought of keeping a little bit of a buffer.

Good Luck to all July applicants for a fast process.

Hello Await,
Sorry I didn't notify you before I deleted the previous thread. JJS created this new thread without realizing I already made a thread. So I just deleted mine to avoid confusion.

Out of curiousity: you need buffer because you are not sure about your travel dates from the past or because sometimes even if your dates are correct it does not match official records because the officer made a typo or something?

If it is the latter, it is quite scary as I applied with no buffer (I put all dates based on my boarding passes and tickets which I all kept for this day).
