Am I missing something with all these names of forms floating about? Or are these for a later date? For tomorrow we definitely just need our passport details right? Do we need the resume for tomorrow?

I think all those forms their talking about is for a later date, as far as I'm aware all you need tomorrow is your passport number and a few other basic details. The resume is uploaded in the second stage

It's official, guys.

The Working Holiday category (round 1) will open to citizens of the United Kingdom on March 12, 2015, at 10:00 Eastern Standard Time (14:00 London time).

8am mountain time! Woop!

7am - happy with that!!!

It is the correct form. If you read it again it says to fill it out if your over 18 (which I assume you are) OR under 18 and a passport holder of countries X-Y-Z.

Kirol

I thought it might've been something like that. I've also found another rather helpful website that's clarified that they should accept either!
IEC Canada | Immigration to Canada |Work in Canada | Moving to Canada

Or...you know....the CIC website might also be helpful?

Well folks I am pooping my pants already! I've had a read through the last few pages since the opening date was announced and struggled to keep up with all the scattered information that is all of a sudden overwhelming even though I've been researching this since October...

Is anyone able to put in one post the best way to run through this initial stage inc. correct website as I've a feeling the one with the opening date is an intro page? Just detail exactly what's needed and next steps?

Don't want to seem like I'm looking for people to go running around consolidating the info but it seems to be overload now haha. One of the best things I've seen is the image that talks you through the whole process but when reading on here can't help but feel like it's drastically oversimplified!

Cheers folks

And it was, though I found it a little convoluted at times.
I just felt that this one was a little more straightforward to me. Found it easier (personally) to access the information I needed, taking it with a pinch of salt of course, since it's not directly taking it from CIC.

Hey there guys , just to confirm for tomorrow , you need a passport picture uploaded and a CV to upload for the first initial bit to win a place ? What comes after ? Or same day also when. Is payment required as I'm broke right now!! Eeeekk please help !

Kirol

First off you'll need a scan of your passport on the picture page, and your CV in the format indicated on the CIC website.
After that comes the CIC part, where you'll need to complete a number of forms, provide the letter of acceptance from IEC, police report, digital passport photo, CV, and other things. You have 60 days to provide these things.

Are you sure we need to upload passport and CV for this first part? I thought that was just for the second bit... And this first part is simply inputting basic details.?

Also, 60 days?
People keep mentioning a 15 day timescale once CAL is received...
(First part = CAL)

Kirol

Aye, Passport and CV is what's been asked the past few years, from what I can gather from CIC and posts on this very site.
Yes, they'll be asked for again on the later stage of things. You can actually create a CIC account right now, which is what I've been going through myself to make sure I'm ahead of the game.
You go onto the CIC site's questionnaire thing, and given your answer of 'temporarily working in Canada' it should lead you through to your option of IEC - It then gives you the option of making a CIC account, and asks you to register through GCKey or another option which is available through some Canadian banks.
Yes, they're mentioning 15 days recently. 60 days was what was quoted in previous years, and that is what is currently coming up on my CIC application page, though it's not changed in over 24 hours... So I don't know for sure.

But you're right. The first part is by and large basic details, but will ask for a scan of your Passport and the basic CV.
I signed up for the 2014 IEC process earlier this year when you could still do it, even though the applications had still ended. These were the things that it asked me for.
