can someone explain this - my British passport which under normal circumstances (i.e. tourist with no ties to Canada) let me enter Canada for up to 6 months without a visa - does this get trumped now by the fact that I am a citizen now and have different obligations when travelling/entering...
Hi links I think you misunderstood my post I have no intention on lying. I will have my certificate with me and inform the officer that I plan on applying for a passport immediately after my vacation.
Thanks Alpha this is what I am thinking about as well.
Thank you - I see this on their website
Important – for Canadian dual citizens traveling by air: as a Canadian citizen you cannot apply for an eTA. You have a right of entry to Canada and are therefore not subject to immigration screening. In fall 2016, you will need to show proof of Canadian...
Thank you Alpha - I should mention that the reason why the airline asks for my PR card historically is because there is an expired visa in there which then they ask "I see this is expired, do you have a PR card" so as I do not mention anything myself, they see the expired visa and ask for it...
Hi Chikloo - thank you for the quick response.
In the past when travelling to Canada, the UK airport airline company would generally ask to see my PR card when I am checking-in my luggage. Now that I don't have my PR card will they say anything? Or do I tell the airline that I am going to...
Hi - I have read prior threads on this subject but there is no concrete answer and too many varying scenarios that do not apply to me.
Facts:
- British Citizen at birth and have Canadian Citizenship as well
- Plan on visiting Canada for holiday (living in UK currently)
I simply want to know if...
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.
Thanks Leon - I would plan to go as soon as my parents get the letter from CIC, but for whatever reason I can't make the appointment I can't call the CIC from abroad! So annoying ...
Thank you both! So if you were in my shoes you wouldn't bother getting a travel document then eh... That is surprising news for the better. I wad worried because PR renewals are taking almost 6 months and my card will definitely be expired by the time the new one comes and I am abroad with...
thank you for the detailed response - so I guess I can travel back to Canada even if my PR card is on the verge of expiring.
But, if it DOES expire (i.e. expires today), do I 100% need to get a travel document? it clearly says on CIC website that I need to... would going to the airport and...
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...
thanks - sorry i should of added - my representative is not a 3rd party agency, it's a family member. does this make a difference? can my family cousin pick up the PR card for me? or have the PR card mailed to my address?
will CIC ever just mail your PR card to your residential address or will...
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...
