No, but they do give you a stamp on your passport that acts as such I think. Call them and ask for an info pass appointment 

I travel internationally all the time and have access to sensitive or restricted information at "work".  I have several work visas for countries of concern.  I use a separate "clean" phone and laptop to travel outside Mexico, Canada and Caribbean and even then nothing sensitive travels with me.   Anything sensitive or restricted I can access using 2 factor authentication over a VPN.
 
Everything physical is subject to search anywhere anytime.

Why will you refuse? Is there something to hide?
They have the right to do it and if you refuse I’m pretty sure will look super suspicious. 
Remember that the only people that have the right to enter the country are Citizens, everybody else can be denied any time

I got my receipt number back today. This time I didn't fill N/A in any fields

Filed again! Hopefully they won't reject this time.

Thanks! I will leave them blank this time.

I think they get taken during your biometrics appointment. If you get a waiver for it, they would use the ones from your last appointment. 

I'm glad it worked out for you!

Thank you! 

Yes, I think it was just a computer error that a person didn't catch, but should have. They tell you in the instructions to us "N/A" if something doesn't apply to you, but the "signature" slots may be handled differently by their scanning systems. Once the scanner sees something in one of those boxes, it wants to see a traditional signature of some kind...N/A doesn't fit the profile. That error should have been caught by someone, especially since you and your wife had signed in the proper places.
 
Good luck with your re-submission....

Yes.  Leave all the other fields blank.  That is what we are doing.  
 
 

Thanks! I will leave them blank this time. 

Exactly, not a single word or character on those fields; all blank. 

Check April 2021 filers: someone on that thread got their package returned and from what I recall, it took some weeks. 
 
If the package is returned no case number is assigned, and you can correct the mistake and send the same package. 
 
A few months ago, it would take 6 weeks for people to receive a text message, now it seems the average is 1-2 weeks. 

We've done so on every form: all fields blank.

I mailed mine yesterday. But I sent it by certified mail. I hope they don't send it back.

So sorry to hear that but I guess to look at the silver lining, it happened after the interview which may have avoided a lot of issues during the interview. 

So sorry to hear that hope she finds another job soon 

My USC wife was fired from her job yesterday... 2 days after our GC interview. She''s in shock and this will definitely impact our lives heavily . On a positive note, at least she wasn't fired before our GC interview.
