We have applied for sponsorship and right now our background check is ongoing. Last july we have realized that we have made a mistake on Schedule A regarding the question "Have you ever been refused entry to canada" . She was denied a tourist visa last nov 2017. We have made an honest mistake in answering the question. We didnt want to hide the refusal. We sent the refusal letter in our application as one of our proofs. We also stated the reasons of the refusal of trv in IMM 5532 in support of our application.

When we realized about our mistake. we immediately sent a case specific inquiry to our local visa office but did not received any reply. We ordered gcms notes and it is not there too. My question is, are they going to think that it is misrepresentation eventhough we sent the proofs and tried to fix our mistakes? We are stuck at background check right now. I appreciate any help and advice . Thank you so much

Yes we did submit it last july 26 thru webform but according to my gcms notes, they never received it. I am really worried . The trv refusal is in our proofs that we sent too but we made a mistake on answering the question. Do you think it will still consider as misrepresentation? The trv refusal is there and we mentioned it in one of the forms too .

Hi there. They never asked us about this mistake. Maybe they didnt notice it and we got lucky. Also we did send the copy of the denied tourist visa with our application . My partner is here in canada now for almost a year :) . Our application took about 10months before it was approved. We had a little bit of problem in regards of our relationship proofs. We got procedural fairness letter asking us to provide more proofs but everything was ok after that.

I'm happy to hear at the end all worked out well! We are currently facing the same, my husband was denied a student Visa to USA couple years ago but on the schedule A background form we got confused with the wording and answered NO . The application is still showing in process and he did biometrics. Now we went over the forms and realized we should have said YES. So we Immediately sent a webform explanation and we attached a correct schedule A background form. Now we're just waiting and extremely worried about it
