No Luck, I am thinking of re-applying with a letter stating the issue and everything and providing Landing Paper, Copy of PR and all that.I am in the same situation, how did you proceed with your application?
Guys please please go through the citizenship guide online in detail BEFORE you apply to avoid wasting your time. A month before i needed to apply, i downloaded and completely read the guide end to end, including the type of application i could send. Since i had a minor child, and i didnt want separate timelines for my spouse which would lead to travel complications later, i choose to apply via paper - NOT because it was more convenient, NOT because I wanted to get my application processed faster and NOT because of advice in this forum, but only because i CANNOT apply online with a minor as per IRCC.I am in the same situation, how did you proceed with your application?
That's interesting...ok so I guess it could be done then...For the minor application you have to apply under subsection 5(1) if you have already applied for yours. I applied in August '21 and I applied for my minor child under subsection 5(1) in December '21. My kid became Canadian citizen before me in June '22. They scheduled an interview before finalizing my kid's application, they asked why didn't we apply together, I told since I already applied I had to apply for my kid under subsection 5(1).
Go through the citizenship guide in detail?? What heresy is that!Guys please please go through the citizenship guide online in detail BEFORE you apply to avoid wasting your time.

Thanks a ton for this information. looks like you applied few months later for your minor. Do you see any issue if I apply for 5(1) just a week later as applied for parents online already?For the minor application you have to apply under subsection 5(1) if you have already applied for yours.

There should not be any issue with that, as my spouse also applied online two days before I sent paper application for my kid under 5(1)Thanks a ton for this information. looks like you applied few months later for your minor.

It's difficult to predict anything with IRCC. You can do either way. Difficult to gauge speed of either way as people are getting citizenship within 3-4 months these days.Hi All
I am going to start citizen application. Is it worthful to file separate application for kids and separate for me and wife. The advantage is to get fast approval for kids and eventually get passport quickly. Whereas parents application get time for processing as we were outside Canada and need extra documentation. Although we all completed 3 years mandatory period for citizenship.
Need guidance. Regards
Minor 5(1) or 5(2) both can apply online. So no need to go the paper route.Thanks. So I can apply for kids separately. Should I apply paper application for kids? and mine thru online?
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/canadian-citizenship/grant/minors.htmlBetween minor 5(2) and minor 5(1) - Just a quick question!
In Minor 5(2) its mentioned has a canadian parent - which means parents born as a canadian or parents became a canadian citizen after coming to Canada ?
it's not clearly mentioned between the both, so want to check if you guys have any thoughts?
