    Just in case other people end up on this thread, thought to refer them to my post here which refers to another thread showing that it is okay to get a signature from your guarantor before you are a citizen. I also add supporting statements from the passport application showing that this is...

    Applying for distant relative

    I have a distant relative who wants to visit me. But we are unsure as to which option to select in the first page of the application portal ("Why do you need a visa?" ) and its effect on the approval chances. We can say that he is coming "to visit Canada as a tourist" or say that "To visit...

    Form IMM 5645 Family information

    Hello. Can someone who has recently applied using the new portal kindly answer this question? Thank you. Do I need to fill out the form IMM 5645 for every individual applicant?

    FSW WORLDWIDE

    Hey Guys! Have any of you recently called IRCC to ask for your application status? My friend got a ghost update today (FSW-O) and then made a call and they said that because of the situation around Afghanistan, they can no longer say what the application status is, and that updates sometimes are...
