    Background packet

    I am about to fill out a background packet. Ive made some mistakes on the packet and have used white out. For those of you who have filled out packets would you say that agencies get angry at that. Ive used white out but have made sure its redable. Hope to hear soon.

    If someone handed that to YOU, Wolve, what would your first impression be?

    I always make a copy of anything such packet and fill out the copy in pencil. I can then make changes as I wish. Once I have the packet as I want, I complete the original in pen using the copy as a guide.

    Like TX said, you should of made a few copies and used them as "rough drafts" and then completed the original to hand in. Seeing white out here at the detatchment is a very big NO NO !! You should of either crossed it out and initialed it, or perhaps you didn't allow yourself enough time to thoroughly think through each question prior to answering.

    And they most likely will not send you another packet.

    Why could you not request another packet?

    I have used white out in the past. I don't think it is that bad if it is only in one or two places. If it is all over the app that looks very sloppy though.
