    PR Card Renewal application referred to Program Support

    Interesting. I'll have to check this thread to see about when you did this complaint. But there are two things in your story that are serious surprises to me: first, that they actually HAVE this 'flag removal team'. (It implies to me they've noticed the drag on resources checking old flags and...

    https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/documents/pdf/english/kits/forms/cit0002/01-03-2025/cit0002e.pdf This says specifically in the section 10(b) about the police certificate that: You said "I’m planning to submit my citizenship application this month. I landed in Canada as a PR in April...

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    If you get the oath ceremony in person, you may not have a choice. If you do: my personal preference is the paper. It looks nicer - and as best I can tell (eg passport office requirements), the new/recent paper ones have barcodes etc that mean they are equivalent of electronic. I cannot prove...

    It is not allowed to send passport by courier, any other options?

    Your spouse should check local resources as to what solutions are available. My best guess is that there is some local service or arrangement, OR possibly travel to somewhere nearby, courier/post it from there, and return. It may be more useful in this case if you specify which country.

    Economic immigration

    This website https://canada.diplo.de/ca-en/consular-services/visa/2169884-2169884?openAccordionId=item-2169908-3-panel Says regarding an airport transit visa: " you do not have a valid Canadian PR card or temporary resident visa, or if you stayed in Canada without a visa AND you do hold a...

    Economic immigration

    Check with the airline. They are the ones who will not let you board if you don't have the right docs.

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I'm only guessing here: likely 'paper file location' was originally used to mean something akin to primary office or first-office holding (after reception), and now that they've changed to electronic applications, they've not changed the names of some of the database names. In other words...

    Spousal sponsorship

    The period between completing the biometrics and medical and next time you hear something meaningful is unnerving, but normal.

    Residency obligation

    No one can tell you that you are 'good to go.' You're not compliant. It's serious. That said: we can say, from posts here from others, you probably will be let in without too much trouble. In theory, they can write up the 44(1) report that starts process of you losing your PR status. They...

    Just wait a few more days. Yes, you'll get an email, but usually several days after the point where you could log in.

    Residency obligation

    Here's the better way to calculate: from the day you land until the five year anniversary of that day, you are IN COMPLIANCE if you have been OUTSIDE Canada LESS THAN 1095 days. (After that five year anniversary, same calculation, but looking back five years from any day they do the calcs) To...

    Good for you. My adult children liked it. And that may be an issue then - if you're not in a huge rush, I'm sure they do them in NB, I just haven't seen how often. (If it doesn't show up soon - ask your MP! How can they not have regular citizenship ceremonies?)

    Have you asked for an in-person ceremony? I don't think there is any geographic restriction for virtual ceremonies, except possibly time zone.

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I believe the site says - statutory is 30 days, they can advise they need an extra 30 days if jammed up. I don't think they often return them earlier.

    Need advice on baby’s PR or TRV

    I respectfully disagree with advice above (although I think it was intended honestly, just missed that your spouse hadn't yet landed) - you MUST contact IRCC to add your child to your wife's PR application (the COPR has language to effect 'has your family composition changed? if so you must...

    Renewing PR Card online - but it's asking for a common law stat?

    I'd leave it out but it's up to you. If applicable means don't upload if not applicable. IMO. Up to you though.

    It's done when people get around to it - volunteers, basically. If you want it updated sooner, you can request access in the tracker and do it yourself.
