IEC 2013 - STAGE 2 - MEGA THREAD All Stage 2 Discussion HERE!

jaff

MOD NOTE:

I've merged a few Stage 2 discussion threads into one big thread in an effort to help those find information they need about Stage 2 as quickly as possible. I'll also Sticky the thread for the time being also.
(The forum also needed a quick tidy up, makes it easier to Mod!)

Remember folks, there is a search function for each thread, it's very handy.

As you were folks.

Hi there all,

Anyway I've completed the myCic 2nd stage of the application and I wanted to see if anyone has encountered the same problem as me yet.

I participated in the IEC before and lived in Toronto for a year. Now I have received a message requesting a Canadian Police Cert for the time I spent there.

http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/united_kingdom-royaume_uni/experience_canada_experience/faq.aspx?view=d#PoliceCert

Now the above link clearly states that a Police Cert shouldn't be neccesary for the time you spent in Canada on a previous IEC visa.

Anyone else had this email?

And if so...how do you get a Toronto Police Cert? Anyone got any links?

Delira

Jesus are they serious?! They want a bloody police check from their own bloody country?! Despite having said on their website that they will not require one. Bloody canucks :pac:

No idea how to get one of these btw, but i better start figuring it out!

I have tried EVERY thing!!
I have cleared the form and started again numerous times

Iv tried doing it from Internet explorer, Firefox and chrome all off different computers!
I even set up a brand new login and the same thing kept happening!!
Im going to go Insane!!
I got my friend to compare it against her Application and she said everything is filled out the same!
I emailed the CIC but they take 20 days to reply!

Step 1 - Calm Down

Step 2 - Put "Not Applicable" OR "N/A" in EVERY field irrelevant to you!

(e.g job description, duties, title & address)

I don't wanna sound like a tech support idiot but are you 100% sure that you're validating the form then saving it?

haha imagine after all that i just didnt validate the form!!
yea i know exactly how to do it from last year, I actually don't know what else to do, I cant afford to wait 3 weeks for the CIC to get back to me,
and when the error comes up there is a little question mark you can click and it says you have to print it, scan and save the form before you upload it which is 100% wrong, they dont accept scanned copies of that form! so annoying! :mad:

The_Poznan

I hear ya...

Ive the EXACT same issue as you and at a complete loss at what to do...im actually thinking about sending in stage 2 by mail at this stage :rolleyes:

gary27

Print it, sign it, scan it and then upload it

I'm just about to start filling out my forms. Could anyone who has done it already help me out.

I'm in Canada already and it asks the dates I've been here. The from date is obvioulsy the date I arrive but should I just put todays date as the second date?

When I'm filling out the form do I just do it on my computer then validate it and save it before uploading?

I've seen conflicting info about the digital signature. How do I go about adding this?

Is form IM5707 the correct family form? I noticed some people saying it wasn't.

Are there any issues that others have found that I should look out for?

Cheers!

yep you just validate and save then upload,

They ask you for a digital signature once you upload all your docs, all you have to do it type your name, No the family form is the right one just print sign and scan it. its all easy enough actually, Obviously apart from the fact i cant upload my application!!
