The short answer is Yes unless you have already submitted one during your immigration process. Below is an example from CIC website: Example 1 You lived in France for one year (365 days) before you became a permanent resident 3 years ago. You did not travel to France after you became a...

I have translated my passports in the past for PR renewal and citizenship with Docbase. Their prices are very reasonable. Link below: http://www.docsbase.ca/

The best way to answer Q1, Q2 and Q4 is to fill the Physical Presence Calculator (by the way you need 1460 physical presence days) . Link below: https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/rescalc/resCalcStartNew.do As for Q3, Yes.

Each Adult should receive his/her own AOR

Regarding CountryABC or CountryXYZ, they should be mentioned in the comment/reason section. So your Physical presence calculator should have an entry like: From: Aug 3, 2015 To: Aug 15, 2015 Destination: USA Reason: Visit friends / vacation. Also visited CountryABC from US from Aug 9, 2015 to...

Waw.. very interesting information. The question was meant for one of my kids (minor) who was born in the US and has a US passport, and recently acquired the Canadian citizenship with us. I guess we'll stick to the US passport when entering the US and Canadian when coming back into Canada.

ok thanks everyone for the input

What do you mean by getting immigration official letter ?

Hi.. I heard its illegal for a US citizen to enter the USA with a foreign passport. Is this true ? Can a dual citizen (US/Canadian) enter USA with his/her Canadian passport ?

Even if Immigration Canada decides to change the rules and include those days traveled out of Canada as business trips, it would be difficult to prove whether those days were used for a business trip or not and some people will abuse the system.

No you can't. You need to have someone to babysit him/her in the waiting area while you do the test.

If you have been living in Canada since 2012 then you would put yes instead of n/a for required to fill for 2012-2015. And for taxes filled on 2016, it would be No as of Jan 2016.

My advice is to change it before you apply for citizenship, you'll save time and money. Not sure about the PR card,

Congrats.. Is the PR card the only thing they ask for ? Did your invitation letter asks you to bring your PR only ? My invitation letter asks me to bring all the original docs I submitted for the citizenship application, PR card, 2 ids, passports.

For Q1, If you became permanent resident 4.5 years ago, then this is the period you need to cover in terms of passports, if you became a PR 6+ years ago then you need to submit the copies for the past 6 years.

I have another question guys. If my wife wants to keep her given name and only assume our marriage name in her passport (so no legal change is required here), she is going to support the last name change by submitting a marriage certificate. My question is, do the identity documents she is...

I'm assuming the name change certificate you are talking about is basically applying to legally change your name. Bummer, I just wanted to show the first name of my given name and hide the rest. Oh well, thanks anyways.

I was researching how can myself and my wife have our names different when applying for new passports. My Wife wants to assume the marriage name and drop two names from her given name. Her given name is her first name + father's name + grand father's name So the final name she wants is: First...

Hello everyone, So finally myself and my wife receive a notice to appear for test/interview which lists the standard documents we need to bring with us. Our application was a family application and my daughter was included. Now I understand that since my daughter is below 14, she is not...

Related to test/interview.. from what I understood kids don't get any invitation to attend, so my question is once myself and my wife receive letters inviting us to attend the test/interview with a list of documents to bring, will it mention anything about our kids ? I mean do we need to bring...
