What if you need to add a new document to your International Experience Canada (IEC) application?
This happens all the time with IEC applicants, especially if you weren’t able to get your police certificate in time. You’ll have to upload your additional documents at a later date. Here’s how it works.
First of all, be sure that you upload all of your required documents when you submit your application for the first time. In this article, we’re explaining how to upload additional documents that are requested, but if you forget a required document in the initial stage then your application will likely be refused. You won’t have the chance to upload the document at a later date. If you’re refused and remain eligible for IEC, you may re-enter the pool for your country and category — but there is no guarantee you will receive another invitation to apply.
If you need to add a new document to your IEC application after you’ve submitted, you will receive an official request by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). While IRCC is processing your application, you should check your account regularly, just to be sure you haven’t missed a request.
