    NEXUS CARD APPLICATION -Canadian citizens and permanent residents/American citizens and permanent residents

    Just to note, crossing the border often enough to merit getting the card is not criteria to get one, or not. When asked why, I simply said I was handed a brochure when returning to Canada once and I wanted to make crossing the border more expeditious. Also note, you are still subject to border...

    November - 2019 Citizenship Applications

    I'm all for it! No, I don't think it will slow down citizenship applications. And that's 27,300 visas that won't need to apply for renewal, extension, etc.

    November - 2019 Citizenship Applications

    Bad timing to go away. Apparently the iron is hot for November 2019 applicants. If I were you I would just hold off another month to two and you could be all done with this thing.

    October 2020 - Citizenship Applicants

    Thank you for including your basic timeline. Our application was received early November, so it's nice to see evidence of late October apps receiving their AOR.

    Tax Filing - Zero Income - Eligibility

    I concur. It's all about residency, not income. File your application ASAP and get that one-year clock ticking.

    Expired Clearance Certificate Citizenship Ceremony Delays

    Your linked article also contains this excerpt: ---------- Sankey said immigration officials will request new criminal checks from other federal agencies in the event clearances have expired before a citizenship ceremony. “It is not necessary for applicants to reapply,” she said. “Once valid...

    Want to prepare right for Citizenship, self employed

    Doing all of what you are planning to should be excessive in the least. I suggest to apply to renew your PR card after 730 days (2 years), since that's the requirement for PR. Then using today's posted timeline you'll have a valid PR card 129 days after that and you'll be ready to apply for...

    Singapore timeline

    I hate to be too repetitive but I've been up and down CIC's website looking for this info and I can't find it. I take it, the one year validity rule you're referring to also applies to those who require a police clearance for their citizenship application?? May you comment or post a link to...

    Husband / father denied PR visa. Should that be mentioned in Background declaration question 6d?

    Under what class are you submitting your application? You have posted this question under the Family Class which I believe is not your intention.

    October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

    I think you have brought up a very important point. I would say your logic is correct, in that the requirements were indeed different the day before. So, "yes" that would matter. Wait until the 12th. It's legally permissible for those who were also eligible on October the 10th.

    October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

    This is just my two cents. Based on the quote you provided, "no" it would not be required. HOWEVER, personally I am expecting this instruction to change, and here's why. Since the new rules will allow days prior to becoming PR to count for half a day (up to a maximum of one year), I am...

    October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

    Bull$#&* !! I disagree, recommended by whom? "Reinforcing your presence" is done via number of days in Canada, NOT by applying together with your spouse.
