    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I don't know your situation exactly. You can book tickets under the name in your current (non-Cdn) passport. You can show that to the airline to identify who you are. Then when you return to Canada (assuming that's what's going on) after you get your Canadian passport - you show that to...

    Yes, and they end up learning things that are not true - and worrying for no reason.

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I cannot say for sure about the AOR aspect. You do not use your citizenship to travel - you use your passport. And as I said: you absolutely can get Canadian passport in your married name (supported by cit. certificate in maiden name + marriage certificate / other ID). So if it were me, I'd...

    PR Renewal applications April 2025

    I'm sorry if that came across as harsh, but this has been going on for at least six months - someone discovered it, others see it and try to use it - but it's now demonstrated multiple times to give false information (because it was never intended to be used!). And like you many have been...

    Eligibility and Background completed after Responding to PFL

    This isn't going to reassure you, but overall sounds fine and you just need to wait some. That step happened at end-May.

    YVR Landing as PR without meeting Residency Obligation 730 days

    Then you are not in the same boat. Please start a separate thread, it just confuses everyone when completely different cases are being discussed in a single overlapping thread.

    Spousal sponsorship

    The names are written in English (as in eg your passport). On the form, the first time names are entered, enter in English and in Hindi. Basically they want the local script version so as to be able to compare documents and have the 'correct' name in local script (since English versions of...

    YVR Landing as PR without meeting Residency Obligation 730 days

    I believe the OP meant that they have a valid PR card. In which case, no reason to think will not be allowed to board (RO compliance is NOT something for which no-board instructions are given).

    PROTECTED PERSON APPLYING FOR PR IN CANADA

    Strongly suggest seeing a lawyer - making mistakes on this could have bad consequences. It may make things easier for lawyer and save time if he has a criminal records check run through police to be able to show the lawyer what is currently on the record.

    Virtual Landing Questions

    You need to update her address when she arrives. If she gets the passport request before departing, she can either submit the passport and wait (and therefore land as a PR) or depart and request virtual landing (once in Canada). It may be faster and more certain timing to submit the passport...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    THey should use your name as you request it (fill in the forms etc) as long as you provide the supporting evidence. If they don't though - no big deal, you can still apply for passport with updated name (use marriage cert). And then update the citizenship certificate if you really want (or do...

    You are using this inspect-tool-explore hack? Here's the secret: It's not supported. it's bullshit. It doesn't work. It gives incorrect information. Stop using it. If you call, they won't know what you're talking about because: see above.

    Marital Status

    No. It's not a critical part of the citizenship app, but for background checking. Choose whatever is closest. If there is an option for separated, doesn't require a legal doc.

    Residency Obligation 730 days

    Whether your PR card is valid or not, you have the right to work. You provide your employer the SIN. Since when you arrive your PR card will still be valid, no issue. When you arrive with your still-valid, you should get health cards and driver's licences (or provincial photo-card for...

    Illegitimate child

    As long as sponsored before he reaches 22 years of age. (Standard caveat that doing close to 22nd birthday means increased risk of technical issues). Without knowing anything more about your case than what you've stated here, in some cases doing so when child reaches 18 can make sense - as an...

    It's possible, of course - only my informed speculation.
