November 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[Kan_Sri]

I heard that in some interviews, the officer also asks for translation of Visa stamping (if it is not in English).
Can the officer ask for translation of stamping which are more than 5 years old ?
Sometimes you have a stamping in passport which is more than 5 years older.But in the citizen application you take into consideration only trips whcih are made after you became PR.

i can only answer wrt to my application. I had only one trip to the states during my eligibility period. I had trips prior to my eligibility period in other languages. I did not have a translation and it seemed to be fine.

Having said that, if the visa officer is not able to confirm that those stamps are from before your eligibility period it could be an issue. At that time, the visa officer will ask you to get those stamps translated.

Thanks for the reply.
Do you know from where to get those translated?
Also, how to send the translated stampings back to the officer ?
Will there be a second interview ?

there are many govt recognized(accredited) translators. you can google to find them locally.

I dont think there would be a second interview.In the rare scenario that the officer is in doubt - he would just ask you to get it translated and send to CIC.

you should really wait for others to comment before you go and get it translated. as i said - i am only sharing my experience.

It should be fine to apply for Citizenship now based on the following:
-She's qualifying,
-Don't have any travel plans until the application is received by Cic.

Thank you Jayson. Appreciate your help.
