    Application for Canadian Citizenship - A Comprehensive Guide

    I do not think anyone cares remotely enough about one day difference in this context, as long as they are addresses within the same country. One could argue either approach, I would simply choose one of those and stick to that.

    Clarification on "update your application" in recent communication

    Yes. It's approved (subject to nothing important having changed). If one of those things were to have changed and you did not inform as required, that would be misrepresentation, and there could be consequences later - that's the logic. (He'll be asked to reiterate/swear these things by...

    Received PPR for Child’s PR, but Travel to Canada is Scheduled – What Should We Do?

    You could delay departure until he gets the passport back, or do the final procedures in Canada. Decide.

    How to fill 1 day being in flight for address history?

    Days that you were not in Canada (before the passport stamping) are days outside of Canada. It's overthinking to believe you must account separately for the time in between. Just put your departure date from home country as July 14.

    Do I must meet 730 days stay in Canada requirement when applying for PR card renewal in my first 5 years?

    Replied in other thread.

    PR Card Renewal Before Completing 730 Days: Can I Apply Within 9-Month Renewal Window?

    The way to look at the PR card renewal is not 'have I accumulated 730 days in Canada yet', but whether you are in compliance with the residency obligation. This is calculated as: total number of days OUTSIDE Canada in the last five years (but discard all days before becoming a PR). If that...

    Paid and submitted old fees

    In the past they've eventually come back and asked to pay the insufficient amounts. It's possible they've returned some but don't recall that, and of course if it's a recent increase in fees, they're very unlikely to do that. One note, if it's only the RPRF, it's been a thing for ages that...

    Applied to sponsor my family through Ottawa, Ontario but I always travel internationally from Montreal

    I mean, really should add here that Montreal is a major transfer airport for international travellers both inward and outbound (less than Toronto, sure, but still important). I've no idea how much CBSA/DOT track on an individual level how many 'exits' from/entries into Canada via airline...

    Applied to sponsor my family through Ottawa, Ontario but I always travel internationally from Montreal

    Wouldn't worry about it, much of the federal govt flies out of montreal, too, and vast swathes of eastern ontario as well.

    Bill C-3 citizenship question

    I think you are missing the point. iIn your case (and all cases now in past*, if I understand correctly), someone who is a citizen when they have a child can pass on citizenship (i.e. if your grandmother was a citizen when your father was born) - and this is regardless of whether they became a...

    Security check for more than years. PR card about to expire

    Spouse did this, took about 45 days for the PR card (basically the expected timeline at the time). Got stopped at secondary entering Canada a couple times between when the new card was 'approved' (mailed) and received - no problem, they were just checking because two valid PR cards in existence...

    Bill C-3 citizenship question

    Haven't watched the video but yes, we all get the point. I believe the distinction @hawk39 was getting at between your case described here: ...and a case with the so-called 'grandfathering' under C-3 where someone claims citizenship based on an ancestor's citizenship. I think there is a...

    Section 44 Report after CBSA allowed Entry

    And if not clear, I'd support comments that seeing a lawyer is recommended.

    Section 44 Report after CBSA allowed Entry

    It strongly implies that the situation has not been resolved. If there were nothing remaining of issue in the file, you'd likely have received a card with five year validity.
