    Citizenship application lack of logic

    thank you for your answer, so what I highlighted in bold means I can submit the application? Should I attach an explanation letter? Thanks for your help

    Citizenship application lack of logic

    Good afternoon My mother has been a permanent resident since March 2021 and since 2015 she has been going back and forth between our home country and Canada, which could easily give her the 365 additional days as a temporary resident (0.5 day for each day spent as a temporary resident)...

    When did you get decision made on the applicant side (DM2) on ECAS?

    my mother's file has been there since August 20, 2019, so I feel your pain. This office was probably the slowest in the world BEFORE the pandemic, can you imagine how slow they will be from now on ?

    Our file has been in Mexico since August 20, 2019. One year, and it still shows as application received on ECAS, so they haven't even opened the file after 1 whole year ... This is just ridiculous, every single thing that they have requested we sent it within less than a week, we sent the CSQ in...

    QUEBEC Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

    They are referring to the confirmation of permanent residence, because the CSQ does not give you any benefits nor early access to the health system, it's basically one necessary step, that's it. The only thing your parents can do are the online french courses, nothing in person because they...

    Mexico

    You really think this is going to change anything ? Mexico has been a slow office for YEARS, it's not something that just happened because of COVID, they always take their sweet time processing everything because they claim to be overwhelmed. Trust me, I know it's frustrating and I'm sorry you...

    Oh and if she chooses to not get married, she cannot sponsor someone while being sponsored in the last 3 years

    We have been on "application received" since August 2019, almost a year and the application has not even been opened by the Mexico office

    Mexico

    It's a standard answer, they copy and paste because I got the exact same first 2 paragraphs word by word. The only difference is that they told me that since they don't have access to paper applications while working from home, I should send the CSQ (which I had already done in November), so...

    If there is something I have learned during this whole ordeal, it's that there is not such thing as "priority" on any of these cases

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

    I know it's difficult but relax, our application was received the first possible day (April 26th 2019) and it's on "Application Received" since August 2019 (on the sponsored person's side), no email, no request for documents, nothing For some people, it's a short process, for others it's not...

    Just so you know, VAC is not the same as Visa office... VAC is just a service contractor for the Canadian government, basically in charge of sending passports when requested by the Embassy (LVO), but they don't have anything to do with your application or the processing time of IRCC

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

    I haven't posted here in a while, but there are no news on my mother's case. I have stopped checking ECAS because it's just disappointing that the application was sent to Mexico in August 2019 and it is still under "application received". I don't understand why they don't even open the app ? The...
