    It is what it is, your worry isn't going to help any.

    Urgent!! passport expiry

    It's recommended to send it but not critical*, esp this early. Wait until you get the UCI and then submit the new passport info. Guess at the office (based on country of origin) or if you don't know, submit to Ottawa or Sydney, they'll eventually stick it in the right file. *Again, it's pretty...

    Language Skills passed, Physical Presence and Prohibitions still in Progress - Feb 2025 AOR, no document or interview requests

    Very useful advice on ordering the CBSA records. I wonder though how one would add Nexus info to citizenship app.

    Good point - worth noting, though, that for in-person ceremonies they give you the certificate at the ceremony. (One or two posters have mentioned getting the option - at the ceremony- of receiving the certificate electronically afterwards, but this still doesn't seem to be widespread.)

    It shouldn't if the diploma/degree is from a reputable place.

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It's often available for download right afterwards and in vast majority of cases within 1-3 days (i.e. friday to monday). I think I've only heard of one case where someone didn't get it in four or five days, contacted IRCC, and it was a mistake of some kind and sorted very quickly. Note too...

    It definitely will delay it. How much - anyone's guess.

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    -Of course others have received these. You supply all including blank pages. (Scan of course if electronic) -Translations: we did not provide, making a judgment that the stamps were all 'EU style' (or few exceptions) with airport name, a symbol representing in or out, date, and something that...

    FAMILY CLASS APPLICATION (SPOUSE , OUTLAND APPLICATION) - RESIDING IN CANADA

    They should have info that the passport request was sent out, because that can be presented anywhere in world (outside Canada); even if they do not, you can ask the question and say you wish to do virtual landing, you've updated address before, how do you get it initiated?

    Legal Name Change - before or after obtaining citizenship? What are your thoughts?

    You're just going to have to use your best judgment.

    FAMILY CLASS APPLICATION (SPOUSE , OUTLAND APPLICATION) - RESIDING IN CANADA

    You have done everything correct. Unfortunately Delhi seems slow. Do not send to VFS, unless you want her to travel to India in order to return (I'd say don't do this unless a trip in immediate future already planned). It's also (alas) normal to not hear back from Webform messages right away...

    Legal Name Change - before or after obtaining citizenship? What are your thoughts?

    I would go with what is on your PR card but you're just going to have to decide how to proceed. Not having a document that says legal name change is hypothetically an issue, but if they accepted for the PR card, should accept here.

    Citizenship for Self-Employed

    Don't overthink. They rarely do rqs now. Give yourself another thirty days buffer, apply online, provide what they ask for and no more.

    Canadian Passport in person timeline

    Read the instructions carefully - it's possible the instructions will say that for citizenship certificates of a certain series, a copy can be sent; and those series coincide with all new paper citizenship certificates that are issued. But again: instructions. Don't know. But honestly: doing it...

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    To be clear, they 'check' the physical presence for all applicants. I assume they request the CBSA entry/exit records for all - not sure though. Have you received a passport request?

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Fully agree with your post but will just double-underline bold and italic* this part: the most practical use is that requesting this will obtain the entry-exit records for IRCC. Which, obviously, can be used to compare against the absence (exit-entry) records provided by the applicant with the...

    How kind of you to register a new account which has never been used for anything else, just to show up here, answer a question no-one had asked and which does not apply (IRCC never asks for faxes anymore), and post linkspam. Get in the sea, linkspammer.
