    "Children Born Abroad to Canadians, May End Up Lost Canadians"

    The easy solution to this is to have your kids born in Canada. So, people can live outside Canada and just come back to Canada to give birth. In that case, it is clear that the 2009 law is not serving its purpose. The goal of the 2009 is not to have the citizen transferred from generation to...

    Finally Canadian --- Never Give up

    ambient2 & h3a3j6 I tried to make my case public. I tried to contact CBC and The Globe & Mail newspaper. They did not contact me back. I think this topic is not interesting to them. However, I will still go public and share my experience if I get the chance to do so. In fact, I was so...

    Finally Canadian --- Never Give up

    Sure, I did not know that such document can be obtained from UAE at that time. Entry and exit from Canada is not rocket science. It is simple to be figured out in most cases. In fact, CIC doesn't need our help there, they can figure it out alone. My dad visit Canada every summer. I lived...

    Finally Canadian --- Never Give up

    In the First appeal, I did not ask for about the financial relief. I focused with my lawyer on winning the appeal. I requested financial compensation in the second hearing. The judge did not allow it because my case was against the Minster of Immigration and Citizenship and CJ is considered as...

    Finally Canadian --- Never Give up

    The first CJ rejected my application for 2 reasons: 1- My credit cards statement shows transactions overseas. She considered this is a proof that I was outside Canada. However, all these transactions where online transactions for payments made for websites overseas. This was a stupid mistake...

    citizenship by convenience

    It is so simple .. I don't think that someone that loves Canada and welling to give his life for Canada a CoC even if he live outside Canada. It is all about loving this country and being loyal to it. I noticed sometimes when I used to see soccer matches for Canada against other countries...

    Withdrawal and reapply- will it again delay? anyone with experience

    Lets think about it this way. What the CIC will think If you withdraw and apply again? they will think that there is something wrong with the first application and may be there is something wrong with the new one. They will not think or understand that people are tired of the long wait and...

    hardness and cruelty of some CIC offciers

    From my experience I would say that immigration officers evaluate application in differant ways. No standard is followed. Based on your information that you mentioned which are general information, some people may think that the lady has found something that the officer you met with did not...

    Fundamental Reason for Processing Delays is the 80% - 20% Standard of CIC

    This is a fact that doesn't need a prove. CIC knows all the entry and exit records. However, they use this when it is in their favor. When they just want to say NO to an application and such record are not in their favor, they simply neglected and ask for other proofs trying to find someting to...

    Fundamental Reason for Processing Delays is the 80% - 20% Standard of CIC

    The CIC does not follow any standard or system evaluating the application. It is true that some applications are unique, but it is clear that CIC does not have any standard procedure. I have seen many cases that are identical in which some processed fast and the others delayed for years. It all...

    I got judge hearing (any advise) + my case details and Timeline

    No problem. Yes, I added documents after 2010 such as Bills, Tax notices, rent contracts, bank and credit cards statements. For me they were an extra prove that I doubled the time needed for citizenship. I don't want to say take every document with you, but take whatever that you think helps...
