Citizenship Application - IELTS

[Indiacan]

If you do not use the Physical Presence Calculator then you will have to use form CIT 0407: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/citizen/CIT0407E-2.pdf

Hi Experts

Please advise :

1- At the time of sending Citizenship Application we have to send only documents as per checklist or other documents for our residency like Bank/Credit Card Statements, Mortgage deed, Job letter, Tax, Utility bills etc

2 - We have to send applications of all Family Members altogether or separately

Thanks

1. Send those docs as required per checklist. Other docs you can use if further details are asked during RQ.
2. You can send it together or separately. If you have minor children, one of your application should be send along with the kids.

Do you have any idea what difference it will make for Single / Family Citizenship Applications ?

Hi Experts

Can you please advise,

1- Can we send Citizenship Application with 30 days extra stay i.e. they require 1460 days presence, if we completed 1490 days, is it ok to send ?

2 - One of family member applied in 2011 and withdrawn later on, is it makes any negative effect while sending application now ?

3 - Considering second clause can we send All applications altogether or separately so won't be effected by their decision ?

Thanks

1. If you are sure about your absences from Canada, extra thirty days buffer should be fine. However, i personally would apply with 60 days of buffer just to be on the safe side.

2. May be, it's up to CIC

3. That has negative effect too, if you apply separately, cic may get doubts you why you applied separately when everyone was eligible together. If you apply together, if one's case is stuck, then i am not sure if there is a way to separately process other applicant's application. Do a online search for splitting application when one applicant's processing is stuck.

Answers:

1) You mark, "Yes"

2) You have to send copies of all passport in your possession since you first landed in Canada. ALL. This is really vital if you don't want unnecessary delays. (Just a note, I applied in 2012 and withdrew in June 2016. Reapplied again in Aug 2016, and I am taking my oath on the 15th of December. So,withdrawing an application does not affect the new application if there are consistencies. Also, on your question on if you can move out immediately after your application. Well, when I went for my interview, my CBSA report was with the person interviewing me. So, they can figure out that you left immediately after application. And they might question your intent to stay after getting your citizenship. I would advise that you wait just 4-6 more months for the whole process, and you leave after that.)

3. You pay for this. "Adult Grant of Citizenship - Processing and Right of Citizenship fees $630.00"

All the best.

Thanks Rigly68

Few applicants received email/letter for sending color copy of passport after some time, that's why concerned for this issue, don't want to delay processing
