If for any reason you are unable to provide key documents to support your application, this will not result in a refusal. Further time to submit will be permitted. Incomplete applications will be kept and reviewed in 90 days. If the application is still incomplete in 60 days, IRCC officers will request the missing documents with an additional 90-day deadline. This would include the inability to provide police certificates and passport photos.
