Hey, I am Scottish born and bred so I have a British passport. Next month I should be flying back for the Citizenship ceremony but I've been residing in Scotland for the last couple of years and will be residing in Scotland for the foreseeable future due to current circumstances. My question...

Hello, Can anyone tell me how useful these 2 sites are: https://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship and http://www.citizenshipcounts.ca/quiz I can score pretty high on both (usually between 35 and 38 out of 40) but I'm still working on taking down notes and improving my score each time. Is...

Hello, I will shortly be submitting my application for Canadian Citizenship. I am reviewing my cit0002e-2 document and looking at question 11. It's the question that asks: "Tell us what you have been doing during your five year eligibility period, inside and outside of Canada. Enter details of...

Hello, I was wondering something about the eligibility period for Canadian Citizenship. I believe I recently became eligible to apply for Canadian Citizenship. It says my eligibility period starts in late November 2014 (using the Physical Presence Calculator). 5 years ago from now. In the...

Hey, So I was reading this: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/become-canadian-citizen/eligibility/language-proof.html It seems as though if you have studied a course in English or French and have either of the following: diploma...

Hello, I have an IELTS certificate from December 3rd 2014. I also have an IELTS certificate from 2017 but unfortunately it's no longer in my possession (I sent it to Canada immigration for my PR and I've missed the boat now in requesting a copy as it's been over 2 years). Luckily, because I...

Hello all, I am currently a Canadian permanent resident. According to the "Physical Presence Calculator" I'll be eligible to apply for Canadian Citizenship this coming November. I plan on leaving Canada on January 10th 2020 and return to my home country for a while. I'm not sure for how long...

Hello, I wanted to double check something. As far as I'm aware, you need to be present and living in Canada while you're in the process of applying for your Canadian Citizenship. Once you've gathered all the documents, done the paper work, submitted the form, paid the fees, etc. you're then...

Hey guys, I was wondering something. This is a hypothetical, but if I was a Canadian Citizen (which I plan to apply for this November) and I moved to the UK, lets say on January 1st 2020. I go to the UK with my girlfriend who just got her Canadian Permanent Residency. We stay in the UK for 2...

Hello all, Just wondering something about gaining citizenship. I came to Canada from the UK in June 2015 on the 2 year working holiday visa. I got my Permanent Residency last September. From my understanding, to get citizenship I need to be a Permanent Resident for 3 years in a 5 year period...

Hey. I am just wondering if anyone has exchanged their full British driver's license for an Ontario one. I've been driving for around 8 years and still have my British license. I've lived in Ontario for more than 3 years now and I've decided I'd like to do car rentals occasionally so it's time...

Hey all. I landed in Toronto Pearson international airport on October 6th. I officially became PR then. I expected to get my PR card in the mail within 6 weeks or so but I did not hear anything until December 2nd 2017 saying that my photos got rejected and please send them on again (this was in...

Hey guys, Feeling super disappointed right now. I landed in Toronto on October 6th and got my CoPR. I was told I'd get my PR status card in around 60 days. Just got an email today saying my photos for the PR card don't meet the requirements. I actually had those photos done at Staples in...

Hello, Just wanting to clarify my understanding of how the Permanent Residency status works. Please correct me if I am wrong but once you get your PR Status card it is good for 5 years. When you want to renew the card it can only be renewed if you have been in Canada for 2 years out of those 5...

Hey guys. So I posted in another thread about 2 weeks ago just saying I got my COPR. I went to Niagara Falls on Wednesday morning after I got it and was rejected twice that day at Rainbow bridge as they had already hit their quota for processing those with PR. So I ended up flying home to...

Hey guys, Happy to say I have my COPR now. Got it in the mail today. I currently live in Toronto. I plan on getting a bus to Niagara Falls tomorrow morning and walking across the Rainbow Bridge. I know it can get really busy so I am planning on arriving for around 7:45 AM or so. I am...

Hello everyone, So I got my PPR a few days ago. I am from the UK so I am Visa exempt. I had to send a photocopy of my Passport Picture page (not my actual passport) and a few other documents. I tracked the package and it is in Ottawa right now. I am just wondering what happens next. My friend...

Hello all, Last night I got PPR. I just need to send on a photocopy of my passport pic page, 2 pictures of myself and the Annex sheets they provided and send it off to them. If anyone is interested I got my AOR on May 4th. I am wondering about how to send this off by mail though. It talks...

Hi guys, I applied for Permanent Residency through the "Canadian Experience Class" with Express Entry. I got my "Acknowledgement of receipt" on May 4th 2017. I got an update that I passed my medical about a month later and have not heard anything since until right now. This is what I am being...
