I definitely didn't misinterpret it. I confirmed this with 3 different people at the CFRC-Edmonton. Two file managers and one recruiter all said the same thing. They all suggested that you use people that have known you for different lengths of time (eg one who knew you 1 year, one who knew you...

Med officer is only docs. Definitely trade choices affect how fast the process is. I am currently a medical student (just finishing first year now) and I applied about two weeks ago, within a day I got the email back telling me to call my RC, who booked me in for a CFAT pretty fast (I wrote it...

In case anyone was interested in the outcome, or if anyone has a similar situation, I talked to my file manager today. She said that all I have to do is type out a declaration that states why my legal name in Canada is different from the name on my birth certificate (ie that there is no such...

So just thought I would provide a helpful update to those people who are having trouble finding references that have known them for five years each. I spoke to my file manager the other day, and although the forms have not been updated to reflect the change, the new and current policy is that...

Haha. I have a legal last name! I just wasn't born with one. I got assigned one when I came here as a baby (or rather, my family got to pick one).

I'll just end up calling my file manager tomorrow and clarifying everything I think. I assume the last name I have now is my legal last name. I've also managed to get through life up until this point (going through school, jobs, med school, etc...) with that same last name and that same birth...

Thanks for all the responses! Puts me at ease. So the whole no family name at birth shouldn't be an issue either, then?

So I will be talking with my file manager asap on Monday when the office opens, since I have to hand in my forms and take my CFAT on Tuesday, but I wanted to ask if anyone has seen this before and if it created an issue. So I went to my parents to get my birth certificate. I was born in...

Thanks for the advice. I actually have very recent credit reports that I ordered, to see how everything is shown following my discharge. My bankruptcy does appear, although my discharged status does not yet appear, which I am told is not unusual since it takes a few months to update records...

Fair enough. Fortunately, my bankruptcy did have a positive outcome, in that I met all my requirements to my trustee and was subsequently discharged. I have one final question about my situation. I was considering writing a letter, and attaching it to my reliability screening forms when I hand...

I actually have read the thread. And I have read of a lot of different situations, some more similar to mine than the next. I saw no harm in outlining my own personal situation and asking for advice. I thought that's what this forum was for.

I'm hoping someone can shed light onto my situation: I'm a first year medical student (finishing first year in about 3 weeks) and am currently in the application process for the MOTP. I have my CFAT in about one and a half weeks where I have to fill out all the reliability check stuff. As for...
