April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

[armoured]

I just have a quick question guys, did everyone upload all the pages of your passport or just the bio?

For online apps, just the biopages.

Didn't we already entered that during the application?

I didn't send an I-94 as part of the application, just filled out my travel history. Though I suppose one could do it as part of the initial application, just uploading a copy as one of the supporting docs.

Yes!!! Not sure why they want to see it they can just do it themselves

A couple of things come to mind. First, possibly they see a discrepancy between the CBSA records and what they can see from the US internally, and so want an official i-94 travel history to see if it can help resolve that?

Because its the US system and not Canadian so implied authorization wouldnt hold. (For example even for accessing CRA account, they take the explicit authorization during application process)

Gotcha! Tho Data Sharing between exit and entry b/w US and Canada is very open. It’s just weird but maybe they just want to see.

Most of us are expecting that IRCC would ask CBSA under implied authorization (as those two are much closer than CRA is to IRCC), and then CBSA would ask the US's CBA under the agreement that the US and Canada has on information sharing. But considering the current administration - perhaps some things are breaking down? So (second thought) this request is an attempt to get around that maybe...

were you a cross border commuter or high number of back and forth to the US?

More like cross border shopper before all the crazy tariffs haha

And this is the third thought - perhaps with a large volume of crossings they just want additional documentation and data points to facilitate triple checking.
