    Spousal sponsorship

    The period between completing the biometrics and medical and next time you hear something meaningful is unnerving, but normal.

    Residency obligation

    No one can tell you that you are 'good to go.' You're not compliant. It's serious. That said: we can say, from posts here from others, you probably will be let in without too much trouble. In theory, they can write up the 44(1) report that starts process of you losing your PR status. They...

    Just wait a few more days. Yes, you'll get an email, but usually several days after the point where you could log in.

    Residency obligation

    Here's the better way to calculate: from the day you land until the five year anniversary of that day, you are IN COMPLIANCE if you have been OUTSIDE Canada LESS THAN 1095 days. (After that five year anniversary, same calculation, but looking back five years from any day they do the calcs) To...

    Good for you. My adult children liked it. And that may be an issue then - if you're not in a huge rush, I'm sure they do them in NB, I just haven't seen how often. (If it doesn't show up soon - ask your MP! How can they not have regular citizenship ceremonies?)

    October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Have you asked for an in-person ceremony? I don't think there is any geographic restriction for virtual ceremonies, except possibly time zone.

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    I believe the site says - statutory is 30 days, they can advise they need an extra 30 days if jammed up. I don't think they often return them earlier.

    Need advice on baby’s PR or TRV

    I respectfully disagree with advice above (although I think it was intended honestly, just missed that your spouse hadn't yet landed) - you MUST contact IRCC to add your child to your wife's PR application (the COPR has language to effect 'has your family composition changed? if so you must...

    Renewing PR Card online - but it's asking for a common law stat?

    I'd leave it out but it's up to you. If applicable means don't upload if not applicable. IMO. Up to you though.

    Pls help, Urgent question

    What are they applying for? If for PR app, when you say 'travel together', does your father want to just visit or will be immigrating as well?

    It's done when people get around to it - volunteers, basically. If you want it updated sooner, you can request access in the tracker and do it yourself.

    Birth Certificate Spouse - India

    I don't know what advice you're looking for beyond ... apply for the long-form birth certificate.

    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Obviously for those who never gave or had very old or invalid ones, you can expect they would request. But I don't think that's the full story, seems they may indeed do some random at least. There seem to be more requests than that. This may be an audit type thing, where they sample some to...

    IMM 5406 rejected twice and I am lost

    I repeat though: you MUST include all of them on the 5406 (additional family information). You can include the 20 year old on the IMM0008 as non-accompanying, and they will have to do the medical. The two under-age Canadian citizens should not, I believe, be on the IMM0008 (but to be honest...

    Marriage certificate error

    I should have said too: it's possible that IRCC will accept the application (you'll get AOR) but then ask you to send a revised marriage certificate. This is why important to do the process of getting a revised one - just in case.

    IMM 5406 rejected twice and I am lost

    You misunderstood and did it wrong then. It means that children older than 18 (and not citizens and PRs) have to submit forms as well. You must list your children on this form - all of them, regardless of status. (Is the wording confusing? Sure. Complain to IRCC).

    They select only some. Whether random or not, no idea.

    Renewing PR Card online - but it's asking for a common law stat?

    1. I would click no, it's not a material thing so don't even think about the misrepresentation aspect. 2. I don't think this is relevant if you put no as answer to first. But not certain.

    Yes, you can also do it yourself through government, where it will either be free or cost $5. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/access-information-privacy/requests-information-act.html
