Hello, I am about to start the citizenship process as a current permanent resident. I would like to change my surname to something more practical for Canada. Does the regular citizenship application process allow for this? If not, what is the best way to approach this? Change name before...

Hi all -- I was notified of my admission to the FSWP through Express Entry. In the email they ask me to submit a number of documents within the next 30 days. However, I applied while in one country, and now I am in a different country. Per the email's instructions, I notified CIC by email about...

Hello everyone, I have to upload four passports. I only scanned the parts required by the instructions (including all visas and in/out stamp markings). However, this hits the 4MB upload limit and I cannot upload several files. Can someone please recommend a workaround? Thank you very much in...

Hi everyone, Because I lived in French- and English-speaking countries before receiving my ITA, some of my documents to submit are in French, while the majority are in English. My chosen language of communication with CIC is English. Do I need to get the French documents translated so that the...
