we all have this printing issue. because cic disabled the print option of this form .
interestingly , i checked the france version of this july form and found it is ready to print.
We should all call at CIC and bring this issue into notice, otherwise wait till July 1st, which i think is not a wise decision.
I called myself on 1-800-622-6232 and they have given me London visa office number when i called London VO they told that get back to CIC since we do not deal with these technical issues, we only process applications.
Arghhhh what the hell?? we have spent a lot of money on ECA, IELTS etc, and have gone through so much agony to gather all the docs according to their requirement and now we are stuck just because of this "SO CALLED NEW UPDATED FORM"
I am going to call them again and would ask rigidly what's wrong , Peoples applying in between 16th to 30th June should go to hell or what???
I ASK YOU ALL TO PLEASE CALL THEM SO THEY RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM OTHERWISE ALL OUR MONEY AND EFFORTS WILL GO IN VAIN
After lodging 2, 3 complains Got a reply from CIC

THANK GOD!! THE NEW FORM HAS BEEN UPDATED!!!!! GOING TO SEND APP IN MORNING!
I notice that the new generic form has been posted and now is solved for printing issue. However, I have already sent out my application forms to the Canadian lawyer for review and they are ready to send out the package to CIC in few days time after review and sign.
Would that be a problem if I am still using the old form but guarantee it will be delivered to CIC before July 1? Or I need to update the form and sign again and courier to my Canadian lawyer for submission?
Will there be a period that both old & new form accepted? I am afraid even it's allowed now, by the time they review my package it's already mid July or after and they will consider my form outdated and got rejected.
Why they will use the term "July 2014" if the form is uploaded in June 2014? Does that mean they allow a period of acceptance till it's actually effective in July 1st?
I am a August 4th FSW applicant. I just realised that i had sent the old generic application form, which i had downloaded around Jun 17th week. However by the time i could send out my package it was signed as on August 4th.
Now i am wondering if i should send them latest generic application form again as additional document.
