The receiving body is Global Affairs Canada, which checks both the content and the order of certification. Skipping a step usually means the file is returned and the process restarts.

Prepare Copy of the house registration · Most recent company affidavit (for corporate applicants) · The destination authority's form or written requirements notice · The signatory's original passport or Thai ID card before the first step.
