July 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

[EUK]

Hi everyone, I have a question regarding medical record that needs to be sent. I lived in two different provinces, but I had a medical card only in the first province I lived. Do I have to ask for my record from the province I never had a medical card but I had an address there or not? Thanks!

You can explain this in your response to IRCC that you didn't had the health card...

How soon did people get the email requesting the additional paperwork?

It’s been almost 4 days since I got my online test invite, but haven’t gotten that second email yet. My coworker got the next day. I’m assuming everyone gets the request for all of this.

For some, its after the test. Give the test and see if officer reviews the file again and ask for documents.

Great, thanks for the answer. I’ll hold off on panicking.

Thank you very much for your detailed post and sharing this information.

Just a little question? Was your test canceled or you never received a test invite before the pandemic? My application is "in process" since November 2019 (submitted in July and AOR in October 2019). I never received any test invite.

These are too many documents. Seriously, its scary. I had got all of these done in 2018 when we had renewed our PR cards (almost everything mentioned here). I am not sure if PR card renewal and citizenship are interlinked? If someone can enlighten me.

Apparently, you just scanned everything and sent through email.

Congrats on passing the online test and all the very best for interview/oath.

Once again, thank you so much.

Good to know that they are giving us the officer email which is helpful for us to send the documents in multiple emails.
I will keep 2 sets - one with 5mb and others with good resolution (big size).

Congratulations for that , and thank you for sharing the above informations .
I have a question in case you can help since your already in that stage ;
When IRCC asks for Record of employment and pay stubs , in case we don’t have access to ROE , would it possible to send a copy of our T4 and/or T1 instead ? Would that be enough ? In addition to that , I can request a letter of employment from my employers to specify the exact beginning and end dates of each job.
Many thanks for your reply , and again all the best of luck in your next steps !

I personally think T4 or ROE would suffice along with the offer letter that was signed.

Thanks.
I assume I need to request gckey. Do we again need to wait for the code just like for cra account? Any other faster method.
In the process of registering, my previous gckey account got revoked. not sure why this confusing gckey method.

Hi, i personally went the pay stub route as i have all my pay slip and the ones i dont i have i was able to download them from previous employer site. I think T4 dont really say the period of the year your worked which is what they actually want to see and t4 has to much of personal details and if its a good option they would have asked for it aswell. my honest opnion
