Common confusion points
Mistaking this form for a simple notification—it is an *application* to get permission first.
Not clearly stating *why* the action falls under Section 7 (e.g., 'because it involves trafficking' vs. 'because it meets criteria X of S7').
Assuming that because the Act covers both, you don't need to specify if your case is primarily about trafficking or pornography.
Failing to include the details of *who* needs to be served with the warrant (the subject/suspect).
