How do I correct an error on my immigration document?

• send the form to the Operations Support Centre in Ottawa, Ontario

If you need urgent processing

In certain situations, you may qualify for urgent processing.

If you qualify for urgent processing, you must:

• clearly mark “URGENT” on your mailing envelope
• include proof as to why urgent processing is required

If you don’t qualify or don’t provide sufficient proof, your application will be placed in the regular processing queue.
