    *******Help Required***** Family class Spousal Sponsorship - Employment Update

    My understanding is that it's required new from all PR applicants. If that has chagned, haven't heard of it.

    *******Help Required***** Family class Spousal Sponsorship - Employment Update

    Either but better from the sponsor.

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    There's a pilot project in testing mode now where some can apply online in parallel with the oath, and get the passport quicker - and I think in this program you don't need the 'guarantor' that freaks so many out. (A really excellent initiative, kudos to IRCC/passport office - I bet a lot will...

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Tracker updated for spouse's application with note that interview required and scheduled for end May (no email notice yet). My only guess so far as to reason is a lot of travel and related (more than one passport for a country that allows more than one). Who knows though? Wouldn't be language...

    PR Renewal applications April 2025

    Suggest you ask in the refugees and asylum forum, more likely those there will know. https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/forums/refugees-and-asylum.56/ My guess is those initials mean protected person or PR (respectively), but I do not know for sure.

    You get the invitation or notice of oath ceremony - that's how you know.

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    They don't order FP requests for all, so just wait. I think the ones with FP requests might seem faster - but just because there's movement earlier than for others. The FP step and processing adds some time overall (or at least seems it).

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I don't know when all this happened, but all experiences we've had with passport office relatively recently have been MUCH better. They had huge issues post-pandemic; now seems sorted. So much so they're offering (partial?) guarantees if passport not complete in 30 days.

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    That's really a different problem case than what was discussed about PR card renewal above, but sure. Obviously we'll see what happens with the potential strike and if passport office issues any instructions - but if you're in a place with a passport office, their 'pick up instead of delivery'...

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I agree with this advice overall but would just note that lately PR card renewals have been going very quickly (at least for those in compliance etc, which all citizenship applicants should/would be) - like most in less than a month. Of course, YMMV. Not saying it's not a good idea to renew -...

    Spousal sponsorship

    They do not provide specific guidance. My view is at minimum she can decide based on who her employment contract is with - eg even if it's a 'government' hospital, if the contract and paycheque is from the hospital and named as such, no issue. (Depending on country the hospital may be a...

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Well if you applied in English I presume they schedule for the English ceremony. And if no stated preference, they will schedule either virtual or in person. Even in Toronto the English ceremony had some French - but not very much. If you want a French one, ask for one.

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    We did this for one family member in Toronto, and we heard back from them in about a week, and the ceremony was scheduled only about three-four weeks or so later than the original. This was Toronto which may have made faster (several ceremonies every week), don't know about other locations...

    It is the same form. I don't recall whether a photo is required (don't think so).

    Missed PR Card Interview Due to Medical and Family Hardship – Seeking Advice on Reopening Application, Residency Obligation, and Urgent Processing

    It's a bit hard to understand b/c some potentially important parts like when you became a PR and timeline. For example: was your last time in Canada followed right away by the 15 months with your spouse? When you applied last time for the PR card - were you in compliance? Did you include your...

    ONLINE PR RENEWAL CARD ASKING FOR COMMON-LAW STAT TO UPLOAD?

    you've asked this before, I think, and answered. Can you point to the part where it requests this, and clarify whether it's required or not? It's still up to you to decide.

    Family Class Outland Sponsorship: Remote Work Question on IMM5669 Personal History

    I'd put whatever address you have connection with and where someone would answer the phone/email, and a letter of explanation if you think it's needed.
