    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).

    eCOPR arrived just before my travel to US - no PR card - help!!

    No. If they can identify you as a PR, they must let you in.

    Outland PR application for spouse

    1. Yes, if she gets the visa. 2. No, can do them anywhere in world.

    Immediate Travel after Oath

    1. Advice from IRCC at oaths is that you shouldn't count on applying for passport / using the oath certificate for either three or five days - most people get the certificate shortly thereafter [after the ceremony that is], or on the spot for an in-person ceremony. This is tight, but do-able, if...

    Update - and More Questions on PR Card Renewal and Situation B Previous Post

    I should have stated more explicity actually: in my view always best to state up-front to CBSA that one is a PR. Granted with the scanner-machines at airports now I do not know how they are handled (which box to tick), but will still suggest putting PR if possible. [As far as I understand...

    Update - and More Questions on PR Card Renewal and Situation B Previous Post

    I do see your point but to quote from @EdinSC : So: the PR has a PRTD that is still valid until Dec 2025. No hurry; there's no urgcncy. I'd say let this play out. It's possible they'll communicate a pick-up for PR card in Canada. There seems to be no risk the PR status is in question (PRTD...

    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    If it's your first passport, you can't apply online. With pending Canada Post strike, better to apply at passport office location (not the general service canada locations) and choose pick-up.

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    You've posted in at least three different threads (impolite), when you could've used that time to search the internet using any search engine (borderline daft, really).
