DV 2015 Oceania winners

Ester, whatever you do, you need to fill and submit that DS260 pronto. Any longer and you risk your application not getting processed in time.

I'm sure @Britsimon will have a better idea of what to do re the passport, but if it were me, I'd submit with the old passport (that has the right spelling) and then changing your DS260 when you get the new and correct one.

Seriously, you are current but you won't be scheduled for an interview for a few months so time is not on your side.
 
Should I use the old with the additional words like estertu insted of ester and notify them that ther will be correction on it or.

You are throwing away your golden chance! Fill the D's 260 the soonest-today , use your old passport ad it was, or choose other travel documents. You can make corrections during interview.
Again fill that form today, not tommorow- go to WWW.britsimonsays. com and read the blog on time running out for submission of D's 260! Go now and get on it.
 
But people ate saying that I should wait to get the correct passport else any misspellings may lead to disqualified so pls I need ur guidance.
 
Your choice to make. It is unlikely that a truthful applicant will be punished for a genuine mistake on a passport, unless there is an attempt to impersonate/fraud the system through multiple entry etc. Which country are you from?

Just leave out the passport details entirely and update your DS when you get a new, correct passport.
I do think a misspelling could lead to questions even though it's not your mistake.
 
Has anyone here applied for a Canadian Police Certificate? From searching the forum it appears to take a long time, but I'm concerned if I apply now it'll come quickly (Murphy's Law) and be six months old by the time of my interview if I have it in September. How old can a foreign police certificate be?
 
The Brit one can be up to 12 months.

I think it will be fine if you do it now @guestgulkan. So long as you aren't entering Canada in between now and the time for interview, you should be fine.

Thanks @EmilyW .

Next question: on the checklist it says "Employment Records". Do I need to provide employment records when I'm using High School as my DV qualification?

Its a generic checklist - for example it lists the ONet job type - which is specifically for work experience cases (and probably non DV cases). So - whilst it is a good idea to take some work experience docs, don't take it as written in stone.

my partner is Canadian and applied for a police cert when he applied for Aussie citizenship. It took over a month and they don't have electronic fingerprints.
May take longer if you were just a visitor there rather than citizen?
 
Hi guys,

I have been reading your forum for long time (every day lol) is amazing how helpful are you guys.
@EmilyW and @Britsimon thank you so much for take from your time for answer and help everybody, thank to you and everybody here I clarified a lot of questions that I had.

My partner entered on the DV2015 (single) and was selected, on May 2014 submitted the DS260, we got marry on August 2014 then in November 2014 him added me on his application and I submitted my DS260, in the end of January I realized that in his DS260 the marital status was single so we sent a email to the KCC for unlock his DS260 and changed the marital status from single to marry.

(We started a relationship on April 2013 so we can prove that is a real and genuine marriage, Im Australian permanent resident, We have been in the USA multiples times, we get marry on Hawaii)

Just for curiosity; what do you guys think? We'll have a good chance? Our CN is OC13xx very late 13xx.

any suggestions, thoughts will be very very appreciate...

Again guys what at amazing job, thank you.
