I'm curious - clearly all of us have found out about the law and figured out that it applied to us. Where did you hear about it? When did you find out about it?

I literally saw through a legal advertisement on Facebook. I knew I had Canadian ancestry already, but didn't hear about the law until about 7 months after it had passed.

Most people that qualify seem to still be in the dark about the whole situation, so I am wondering how all of you all heard about it (I want to see what channels are spreading awareness)

With some of the 7/1/1867 talk and the fact that my anchor ancestor falls just foul of the line (though I have a theoretical died in Canada post 1867 ancestor that would work alternatively I am also working on documenting for a worst case scenario), I'd like to submit ASAP (to grandfather myself, if that becomes relevant), but I don't have all of my documents yet. I'm stiil waiting on my great grandfather's birth certificate and official letters saying I did a seach with New Brunswick vital records.

Is there a way to get a filing and add after? Would you guys recommend it? Or should I just bite the bullet and wait?

Is there a chance of rejection if I submit early without all records from an issuing institution (I still have records for each link of the chain, but they aren't all from issuing institutions yet)
