    Apply to Ouland process for common-law sponsorpship while living in canada?

    That's a reasonable point - but as we've had come up here many times, there is also not really a compelling reason for many to apply inland instead of outland. In the case of the OP here: already has a work permit, access to health care in most provinces therefore assured. So why apply inland...

    I don't believe this is true, or not exactly. Please show specifically where this right is enumerated and termed as such. Personally I think your framing is completely wrong: there's no reason to believe that something can't be both a right and a privilege. But privilege as used above is not a...

    Apply to Ouland process for common-law sponsorpship while living in canada?

    Ignore your consultant, fire them - immediately. Hint should be that the forms you fill already have this precise option (family class with principal applicant in Canada). I doubt they'd put that option on a form if it would not make sense to them.

    Immediate Travel after Oath

    Hard copy is better - you will receive it in person, and there won't be any delay in getting one electronically (which shouldn't happen, but can happen - rarely). (You can still submit for passport applications with a copy, because it's a new one. Don't worry about that though because they...

    I'd put differently: if you're a January applicant, there is no reason to think your file is delayed in any way. I'm generally not one to discourage people from getting GCMS but like calling every day, it may simply be you're overthinking at this stage.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    In previous months, it's often been the case that those who got test invite without fingerprint request got BG done sometime before the test invite or around that time. Not 100% consistent though.

    Immediate Travel after Oath

    At some point, you're going to have to look up a specific location and read the instructions. https://ircc.canada.ca/english/passport/map/map.asp For the ones I have looked at, all it says is proof of travel. There is no mention of a reason statement. If there is, saying you already have...

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    They seem to do quite a lot of surveys recently - got one yesterday for the citizenship app portal and all that. As a rule of thumb: if the originating email is *.gc.ca , and has the english/french duality almost all govt emails have, it should be legit. BUT: -make sure you look at the actual...

    Does it matter the location in which we submit the passport?

    I don't know of any reason to doubt it. It seems your spouse is only travelling for 4-8 weeks and IRCC doesn't seem to strict about the 'submit within 30 days' thing. The fact you wrote by webform and got a call means at least the webform you wrote is on file. If I were paranoid and wanted to...

    Is my application on hold because of my wife's application?

    If you applied together, yes, they are held until they are both ready. That's what it means.

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    As far as I'm aware the passport is requested only if the decision is positive.

    Residency obligation

    I know of course that they can be - but that type of source doesn't tell us what they actually do, IMO. My question is whether we're seeing any single-entry issued in practice.

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Personally I strongly doubt anything gets even opened in 20 mins - so more likely it was going out to you anyway - but not impossible. At any rate, all's well that ends well, and congratulations.

    Residency obligation

    My memory may be faulty but I don't recall any single entry. At least recently.

    Immediate Travel after Oath

    Check the passport office website. I believe proof of travel required for one-two business day service, not for longer

    Residency obligation

    As far as I'm aware, they're all multi-entry; I think most are six months or longer, but less certain about that.

    Goods Carry and follow list samples required

    I don't recall how that part worked. I believe we had to go to airport customs (near airport, not in airport, at least at Pearson) for the shipment to be released, but - ask your moving company (the one in Canada).
