    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    That’s fast to get the oath date! I’m hoping to get my date soon as LPP is complete and I’m supposed to travel in mid-August. However, I live in NB so I’m not holding my breath that it will be fast to get an oath

    Issue with CBSA Travel Record – Impact on Citizenship Eligibility

    I was thinking that if OP hadn’t gotten his CBSA records he would have listed his July 19th exit with no second thoughts. I would assume that if an IRCC officer sees that you report an exit that CBSA doesn’t have (but does have a re-entry from) that the presumption is that CBSA records are...

    Issue with CBSA Travel Record – Impact on Citizenship Eligibility

    I’m asking more for my edification than anything else… CBSA is missing an EXIT not an entry, so doesn’t their data give you credit for 15 more days than you actually have? It looks to me like they have you back in Canada on July 4… I feel like I’m missing something in terms of how it’s giving...

    Not true. Many people don’t get a fingerprint request and haven’t given fingerprints for years

    The Government of Canada introduces citizenship by descent legislation for Canadians

    So for the US it’s actually the transcript that is needed not a diploma that shows completion of a degree and the transcript shows if a semester is in-person, online, a semester abroad etc. it’s not perfect as someone could have been outside the US for a short trip etc, but I think they only...

    The Government of Canada introduces citizenship by descent legislation for Canadians

    If it’s like the US you can prove via school records, employment records, stamps in passport that prove you were in the country, etc. as a US citizen it’s been a pain for my two kids who were born in Canada, despite having spent 28 years living in the US. I would imagine Canada will be fairly...

    Sponsor my common law partner inland

    Do you mean you started living together in January 2025, or that you reached 12 months of continuous cohabitation in January 2025?

    I wouldn’t worry if I were you. This sounds like a very very low possibility. I guarantee there’s more to the story of the girl who never heard back and couldn’t renew her PR

    PR Application

    You mentioned not hearing back yet from Service Ontario… have you been calling them and asking for updates? Seven weeks is awhile and I’d personally be hassling them instead of thinking of submitting the PR application with a set of documents that IRCC may or may not accept. This smells to me of...

    Proof of living together while PA is a visitor

    Best of luck to you! Yes you’re definitely well into lawyer territory. Best wishes

    Proof of living together while PA is a visitor

    Did you actually meet the common law definition on the ircc website when you applied for your pr or when you landed? From what you’ve said it’s not clear to me if you did or not. For example if you and your then girlfriend had a child together but didn’t not have 12 months of continuous...

    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It sounds like maybe they didn’t upload the fee receipt correctly which I think would make the application incomplete, in which case yes, I think they’d have to pay more because the application date would then be after the fee change.
