    Spousal sponsorship

    Your answer was posted by @scylla above: "Do you mean that IRCC assigned a number? If so, that is an administrative step and doesn't indicate final approval. PPR could be anywhere from a few days to a few months from now."

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    I was comparing at land border vs applying for a PRTD. Airport not relevant* because those who need a PRTD cannot board a plane (that's why they need the PRTD). PRTD refusal rates seem MUCH higher than at land border. *There is a case of those PRs who can fly even if no valid PR card: US...

    Confused about the question : "Have you ever used any other name?" in citizenship application

    If she uses the married name at all - yes. If she doesn't use it and has no IDs etc under the married name - no.

    Immigration and Citizenship status question

    As a rough guideline, disclose any long-term status such as worker, student, permanent resident, or similar. Not sure? More than six months (possibly unless allowed as tourist), definitely more than a year - disclose. They gave you some non-visitor ID or paper? Disclose. So yes: in most...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    The day you arrived in Canada - presumably you mean when you first landed - you were unquestionably in compliance with the residency obligation. Completely different situation. A PR who is non-compliant can be found to be inadmissible. It requires them making such a decision, but it is possible.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Spouse had the interview recently (online). Very low-impact, no issues, agent quite nice. Started with routine question about whether any criminal or immigration issues that would prevent citizenship (to which answer given was 'not that I know of' - how should one answer that? Probably with a...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    There's a discussion somewhere about this - I once found same text about how R-1 means you're 'deemed' to have met the RO, or something like that. Feedback came back differently from other members, that it's ambiguous and doesn't automatically mean you can be assured you'll get PR card on...

    Spouse Sponsorship: Proof Of Communication

    To orient you: download the checklist document with the application package. The checklist is the main document to orient you and define what you need. Read through that carefully - what it asks for specifically depends on your situation, that's the part you need to pay attention to and understand.

    December 2023 - Citizenship Applications

    You keep asking this. There is no separate thread I'm aware of. Best would be to start a new thread. You ask this question without providing useful information about your case. All cases I've seen or heard of where the applicant has spent eg a year or more in the PNP province have had no...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It is usually a few days (say 1-7 days) before the tracker account can be created. You should get an invitation/info letter about the tracker (separate from AOR), which seems to come a bit after the tracker account can be created. So either wait or just try it once a day.

    Yes, this happens. Some don't even get AOR. Consider the medical request to be same as AOR.

    Spouse Sponsorship: Proof Of Communication

    Please read the application instructions carefully - if you live together, you may not need to provide this at all. There is a simplified instructions/proof set for those that have lived together a certain period, not been married before current, and have kids. This may apply to you too.

    Citizenship Tracker-Background Check - fingerprints processing took too long

    No, they do not necessarily mean the same thing. One can happen without the other. It's probable most fingerprint requests are just random audit requests (basically a check against previous biometrics) and most of the rest those that don't have biometrics on file, older ones / technically...

    Sorry if that sounded harsh. In the end, it may not be much of an issue.

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    I do not understand. On what basis did you claim you met the RO? You wrote, if I understood, that you left in 2014 and stayed abroad. Were you living with Canadian citizen spouse?

    AOR = Acknowledgement of Receipt, so yes.

    I am worried!!

    This is motivated reasoning on your part, and you've now just disclosed to us that you CHOSE to leave out information that you thought relevant (if you thought it relevant, no reason to think IRCC would not also think so). You wanted to pick and choose, but the question - as I recall - was...
