Hi, I am Lynne's daughter. Thanks for providing us with the link. I am now in the process of completing the relevant form and have a couple of queries if anyone is able to help;

1. In the section about the applicant's parents, it asks how my father obtained Canadian citizenship, which he doesn't have so I have stated this in the box. It then goes on to ask questions that would only be relevant if he did have citizenship with no option for 'not applicable'. Can I assume it is ok to leave these questions unanswered?

2. In the section about the applicant's mother it asks about her leaving Canada before 1977. My mother left Canada in 1960 and hasn't returned to live there since. What shall I put in the date 'to' field?

Thank you in advance.
