    60 days since judge interview, still waiting

    The poster above is right. Call your MP. This is the sort of inquiry that their staff can make. Prodding things along at this point is what you need. Contacting the Visa office? (I'm assuming they mean the immigration side of things? Or do they mean the local office of the CIC in your home...

    Citizenship application when spouse may not be able to live in Canada

    Hi Ski, Having a spouse who lives abroad may bring your application under higher scrutiny. No one can say for sure whether it will, but it would be wise to prepare for it along the way by keeping meticulous records of any time you leave the country, keeping all your official documents from your...

    Contacting MP for urgent oath

    I recommend contacting your MP so they can inquire for you with the CIC. You have every right to inquire and see if there's an ETA on the oath (you have already taken the test, yes?) The focus should be information, rather than advocacy. Asking for an oath to be expedited so you can leave the...

    Citz appln in process - new born - what procedures?

    There is nothing to do, the child is already a Canadian citizen and that citizenship has zero effect on the pending citizenship of the rest of the family. But call the Call Centre if you'd like confirmation and report back to let us know what they said. Note: A child born, or a new family...

    Citz appln in process - new born - what procedures?

    Congratulations Boltz and family! Was the child born in Canada? If so, no action is needed.

    Missing stamp on entry to Canada resulted in a RQ

    Stable employment is good evidence of residency. But paying a lot of taxes and making a lot of money doesn't buy you any extra consideration from a citizenship judge. You qualify for citizenship based on your time here, not your taxes here. You made an error in calculating your residency days...

    PR Appeal Fraud

    While I did not completely understand your message, it does not sound like immigration fraud. It sounds like you want to hurt to this person, but you don't say why. Notley, is this person your family member? Are you in a relationship with them? Have they hurt you? Have they threatened you? Are...

    PR Appeal Fraud

    CIC is pretty good at identifying false documentation, so I wouldn't worry about them not noticing. They will check the documents and investigate the case. It doesn't sound like you have any real information to share with them beyond: Make sure to double check her documents. They will double...

    Filling my PRTD

    Apologies are not necessary, but you do realize that you can add the necessary info to this thread (the text of the questions that you want feedback on)?

    Filling my PRTD

    If you want help with specific questions, you need to quote the text that you are asking questions about. Help people help you rather than depending commenters to look up and cross reference everything out of the goodness of their hearts. Regarding what province Toronto is in, you should...

    Entered Canada and not meeting PR requirements.

    This is terrible advice. As others have noted, a lost passport does not erase the note. The note is in the CIC computer system as well. A lost passport also triggers suspicion and, in many cases, years-long wait times in any interactions with CIC. Citizenship applications, PR renewals, etc.

    FSW PR, Working in Montreal Quebec

    Yes. PRs have freedom of movement within Canada so you can move to whatever province you like. You may occasionally be asked for your CSQ during official things, but just tell them you don't have one since you landed in Toronto. They will figure out an alternative. Hopefully you speak some...

    PR card renewal - RO questions :)

    1. Worry about representing yourself truthfully, rather than imagining someone else's negative interpretation of the truth. With the CIC, the truth is your refuge. Many applicants fear that something normal "looks bad" so they lie about little or big things. This backfires hugely. Have you met...

    PR card renewal - RO questions :)

    Hi Kelsey, It's best to quote the exact text of the question that you are asking about if you'd like really specific answers. Also describe any prompts in the answer area. You need to help people help you. From memory, I cannot tell you.

    PR card renewal - RO questions :)

    1. No one knows exactly what causes RQ. But you are allowed to travel as long as you meet the RO. Don't convince yourself that you've somehow messed up for doing something pretty normal and completely okay. 2. You are not responsible for whether the passport officer stamps your passport, and...

    PR Status Obligations

    That works as long as nothing unexpected ever happens in your life. This forum is filled with posts from people who barely meet their RO and then lack wiggle room when faced with important and unpredictable life events. Many have to decide whether a family member's funeral, a good job with a...

    Travel Document Help

    Which one has the error? If it's your new passport, you should get that fixed if at all possible. You may want to check with your university (have you been admitted to one yet?) about what documents they require for PRs. PRs do not have to pay international student fees.

    Personal immigration entry/exit record or movement certificate.

    Um. No. If you want to send them something completely different from what they asked for, you need to first try to get what they requested. If it doesn't exist, you need to show that you tried. Make an effort. If the effort fails, demonstrate the effort and provide an alternative. Don't...

    Cananadian father and noncanadian mother ( second wife)

    First off, I apologize for misinterpreting your message to say that you were the son. Are you the 2nd wife? Or a relative of the second wife? No one is trying to compromise your anonymity, but it's hard to give good advice without basic information about who one is talking to. As others have...

    Cananadian father and noncanadian mother ( second wife)

    One person can not sponsor two spouses unless they can show that they've divorced the first spouse BEFORE the marriage to the second spouse. No No. A citizen (as you likely are) can try to sponsor their parent for permanent residence (the step before citizenship), but the chances are not good...
