Sending off Application :)

[tina19]

Can't believe I can finally say this. We have completed everything, double checked everything and hopefully didn't forget anything. Were ready to send off our application for PR common law outland. Any tips you can share about how to organize forms, where to put payment receipt, should I write our names on the three envelopes separating our documents, anything like that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Right before you go to mail it, check and make sure CIC has not updated any forms.
Send it with tracking.
I put items in order of the checklist

Good luck

Thank you and I realized that the document checklist was updated and we didn't know about it so I had to re print it and include the notice of assessment. Thank you for the tips. Everything is done and checked. Sending it off tomorrow. Fingers crossed now

I labled each of my envelopes with my name and my sponsors name just in case they got separated. I also wrote "Outland".

Congrats on sending out your application. I know how it feels to just be done with that part.

Smiles!!

Envelopes?? Is your application so big it needed multiple envelopes? How many pages is a usual application?

I just divided it up.
Envelope 1- Principal Applicant application & docs
Envelope 2- Sponsors application & docs
Envelope 3- Proof of Relationship docs

I really don't know the average amount of pages, everyone's is different based on their own documents. Yes, I had quite a bit.

Everyone organizes it differently, but I read that a lot of us divided it up like this. I put the three envelopes in a Canada Post Large size box and mailed it like that.

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind when we are ready to send off..

Random question...

After printing off receipts and things like that, that are PDF files.. Is it ok to add a handwritten caption or description?

Yes, you can also write on your PDF easily (assuming you are using Adobe Acrobat) by using "comments".

Thank you!
I'm so not a computer person, I don't know all these little tricks. I am learning ALL THE THINGS in this process!
