    Advice on how to proceed

    He can return. We don't know how long the OWP processing will take place, nor whether leaving the country will have any impact on that (i.e. does IRCC delay OWP for those who leave the country? Probably not, but who knows?).

    Lost my PR card, but it was found

    You should not have asked to withdraw the application. The previous card was probably cancelled and is no longer valid, and now you've withdrawn your application. You can try calling IRCC but most likely you'll have to apply again.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It's hard to rule anything out - but there's no logical reason to think so. And unless this theory is backed by some serious data (which, let's face it, it's not), this is "I noticed it rains when I wear my fancy socks so obviously those socks cause the rain" level of 'analysis.' Or to be...

    September 2024 Citizenship Applications

    Basic bureaucratic / administrative thing that if you save the officer some work, and providing it gives them an update upon which to act, and the combination makes it easy to do and saves them some time (esp at a time when they want to clear the inbox eg certain times of year or when boss is...

    Spouse H1B holder residing in US, indian passport but has valid Canadian visitor visa

    1. Apply outland unless she is in Canada and expects to remain throughout the process. She can apply for OWP as an outland applicant, but must do so from within Canada. 2. You've discssed a lot the disadvantages - go with what you have, this is not an arranged marriage it seems, you visited each...

    A few months short of Residency Obligation in first 5 years. YVR or YYC less likely Sec 44?

    You are right that there are trade-offs, I can't say for certain which is better. That said, each individual has PR status on their own - so (for example) if one of you arrived first and got through, hey, arguments are now better. If that person gets a 44(1), that doesn't - directly nor as far...

    A few months short of Residency Obligation in first 5 years. YVR or YYC less likely Sec 44?

    This is another example where I don't think Dingus-AI is summarizing what you think - it sounds like general advice intended for those arriving for a visit, or in some cases at border, some other standouts. It just sees a high probability (correlation) of words about CBSA/airport/visa etc and...

    How fast can I get a passport?

    As long as you're aware of the issues and have a backup plan. Good luck. Let others know how it works out.

    A few months short of Residency Obligation in first 5 years. YVR or YYC less likely Sec 44?

    Only you can decide this as I understand it's complicated and means taking pretty big steps. Hence IMO only: -reality is very few that are only about 3 months out of compliance have serious examinations that lead to the 44(1) steps. -of the documentation and 'narrative' you have about lenience...

    Finding out the date I became a citizen.

    Do you have your certificate of citizenship ? It is written on that (at least in the current format).

    Canadian Citizenship Online Application - IDs

    I don't think it makes a whit of difference, but personally I'd go with the age of majority card.

    Do you need to go through Canada's immigration or cutoms if you merely transit through Canada's airport?

    I'd really suggest looking at the government's website - there are several different factors that play together, including whether you hold a current US visa, the passport you're travelling under, etc. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/transit.html

    Previous Canadian Work Permit on Spousal PR Application?

    I have no opinion really as to whether necessary, but for the extra 1 min work I personally would attach.
