    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I believe if the price changes after you’ve submitted your application they don’t ask you to pay more. Just like your application is “locked in” in terms of days in Canada etc, you pay whatever was applicable at the time of submission

    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I’m wondering if there’s a typo in your dates? May 7 isn’t two months ago? We have a very similar timeline except my year was marked complete April 7 - no updates to LPP or oath since

    Outland - US common-law Spouse

    It should be very very clear in the forms if the form is about the sponsor or the principal applicant. If you haven’t started filling the forms out, start doing so and I think a lot of your confusion will go away as you start filling them out. If it’s not, read it again very carefully...

    Sponsor retired and main income is his pensions. - Spousal Sponsorship - Outland

    Are you/will you be in a position to work? Or currently working? (Not clear if you’re currently in Canada.) Showing you have plans to work (looking into how to transfer accreditation, improving English or French skills, researching job postings you’re qualified for etc) could potentially...

    Seeking Advice for Spousal Sponsorship with Less Than 2 Years in a Relationship

    Earlier I had posted and mentioned that I was sponsored just shy of our 2nd anniversary and it was a very smooth and quick process. But now reading more details about your timeline I want to make sure it is clear that we were just shy of two years of MARRIAGE and had been a couple for 3 years...

    Citizen obligations | PR- PNP | Moving out of province.

    PRs have mobility rights, so you can move. If I’m reading correctly it sounds like you’ve lived for awhile in your PNP province anyway, so you really don’t have anything to worry about. There’s some concern that if you move right away (ie never work or live there or stay there for far less than...

    Seeking Advice for Spousal Sponsorship with Less Than 2 Years in a Relationship

    W We will have to agree to disagree on if it’s a corner case or standard practice for **practicing** Catholics to need a church wedding. In my experience with many, many Catholics, the practicing ones absolutely have church weddings. I thought I was pretty clear in my previous post that it...

    Spouse sponsorship

    Leaving out a previous marriage is pretty serious. Did you get a ban for misrepresentation or just a refusal?

    Seeking Advice for Spousal Sponsorship with Less Than 2 Years in a Relationship

    I think it’s a bit nuanced here. If you’re nominally Catholic and aren’t really practicing then having just a civil wedding is fine. But if you’re practicing Catholics and your relationship history somehow reflects that (met at church or on a catholic dating website, didn’t live together before...

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    You mean your job started more than two years ago? Put the real start date not a fake start date of exactly two years ago. They know that people have jobs or schooling etc that aren’t exactly two years from now.

    October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I saw one on the list of in person ones back in March. I figure there can’t be that many of us in NB so I imagine they’re infrequent. I don’t mind waiting, was just musing on if it’s a numbers game where they wait until X applicants are ready for the oath.

    October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I think I did. My 5 year old is really excited for me to become Canadian like the rest of the family so if at all possible I’m hoping for in person so she can see it (since I imagine zoom ceremonies aren’t very child friendly).

    October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I’m also in NB and have been wondering if they have to wait until there’s enough of us to hold a ceremony? So that we might be waiting for a ceremony longer than in higher populated areas. Of course my LPp hasn’t been done yet (I’m a Feb 2025 applicant) so it’s currently a moot point for me...

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I have read them thoroughly. :) I’m just pointing out that this seems like a tempest in a teacup of a lot of frustration and anger when people are still far from the average processing time. Anyway, I’m out of this particular conversation about Vancouver now as I don’t think anything...

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It’s also worth putting this “slow processing” in perspective. This is the January 2025 thread. If you’re a January 2025 applicant you’re not even halfway to the standard processing time, so honestly it seems a bit goofy to be up in arms about slow processing at this point.

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    That’s pretty offensive. Just because things are slow, no need to say they’re not actually working. Feels like a low blow that detracts from the bigger point.

    Seeking Advice for Spousal Sponsorship with Less Than 2 Years in a Relationship

    There are many people who submit outland applications before two years of marriage. Follow the instructions for the additional relationship proofs. Presumably you’ve been living together since marriage? Did you generally follow the customs of your culture/religion for dating/engagement/marriage...

    Sponsoring my Cuban husband

    What sort of ties does he have to Cuba (family, property, job etc)? Has he had other visitor visas to other countries before? I’m far from an expert on TRVs but my understanding is that they look at things like that. You may want to research if it’s better to apply for a TRV before or after...

    CIT 0001 Eligibility Question

    Plugging in the info you provided on this gave me that you are probably not. https://ircc.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3pJ5oXgZNBj0r1c?Q_Language=EN I think your dad may have a very small shot at it, but that would be highly dependent on him having all documents about his grandmother’s citizenship...

    CIT 0001 Eligibility Question

    I don’t think you can submit an application for your deceased grandfather, so I think while you’re right in theory about the descent, because your grandfather never got his Canadian citizenship recognized while he was living, you are out of luck.
