Hi, Tried searching but couldn't find an answer and am hoping someone here can help with a simple question. If I am completing my oath on Monday and received my citizenship certificate, can I apply for a passport in-person the following day? Or is there a certain time limit I have to wait...

Hi Everyone, I asked this question awhile back but now it's for real and would appreciate your help. As the subject states, I am currently in the UK with my CAD spouse (was living in Canada for last 5 years and renewed my PR card 6 months ago). My PR card has expired just a few days ago and...

does anyone know what this is? my ATIP report says file transferred for FPAT completion. citizenship test was passed and it says no hearings are required. doesn't look like a judge has been assigned to my case as all those fields are blank.

out of interest, say one is a UK citizen and has an expired PR card and comes back to Canada - what happens if you didn't obtain a travel document prior to arriving to Canada? I ask because if you are a citizen of a common wealth, you can normally stay in Canada for up to 6 months visa-free -...

The PR guide doesn't mention any supporting documents to be in colour? Is black and white copies acceptable? Tried searching but results were too vague. Thanks!

I don't see any processing times on CIC regarding this - can anyone be kind enough to advise me or share your own timelines on getting a travel document while being abroad? For example, say I am abroad and my PR card is expired and they mail my home address tomorrow in Canada saying pick up...

Hi, On the PR form I have provided my e-mail address, which states that if you provide an e-mail address, all correspondence will be sent to my e-mail address, which is what I want. My question is that if I assign a representative, will ONLY the representative now instead receive all...

This is new to me and quite worryingsome for people in our situation. Basically Air Canada refused re-entry into Canada with a foriegn passport and a Canadian Citizenship Certificate, as supposedly only a PR Card is proof that you have status to stay in Canada... but when you get citizenship...

Anyone done this before? If one's PR card expires in 5 months for example and is currently living abroad, has anyone had their family in Canada submit the application for you (obviously the applicant fills and signs the forms etc and posts it to family)... So you save the trip of having to come...

hi, I have a PR card that expires next year and i will be overseas with my CAD spouse... I understand that I can apply for a PR renewal card if I apply within Canada 6 months before expiry. Will the renewal process be affected if I am already in the process of applying for citizenship? thanks

Has anyone submitted additional documentation for their citizenship application? Only thing extra I've provided is a copy of the marriage certificate to show my legal name change. I also included a letter saying why the dates are different from 3a vs 3b (got married) and 6a vs 6b. Aside from...

Hi, Once you complete the citizenship process and receive your Canadian Citizenship card - does it expire? If it does, do you have to meet any residency requirements to renew the card? I've tried googling and checking CIC site but they don't have any info on this question. Thanks!
