Wrong form in Stockholm, then back to the start
- First attemptPrints taken on the wrong form.
A service she found online rolls her prints on an FD-258 card, the form for the FBI, instead of the official C-216C form.
- Second attemptNew prints, posted to Canada alone.
She arranges new prints and sends the card herself, unsure whether the CCRTIS-approved consent form and the fee are in order.
- ReturnedTwo impressions unreadable.
Nobody reviewed the card before it left Stockholm. She has to be fingerprinted a third time.
- Result issuedA result, but no one to check it.
The RCMP issues her result, and she still has to work out what the visa office needs with it.
- Final stageVisa file goes in late.
Separate providers, posts and follow-ups push the family's move behind schedule.

- Result issuedResult issued by the RCMP.
Sara follows each stage of her file in SmartPortal, with one Globeia reference.
- Next stageChecked against the visa list.

- Final stageReady for the visa application.
