    Was My Mother Deemed a Citizen in 1947 Under Section 5(1)(b)?

    I don't understand the substance of your question - is it somehow relevant whether she became a citizen under 5(1)(b) - as opposed to some other section? She has the citizenship certificate which lists the effective date. She was a citizen as of that date. Other part of answer to your question...

    H&C Unique situation with my 76-year-old mother. Advice appreciated

    I'd just add to this: the situation is not at all unique - or if it is, only to extent that the parent has somehow remained in Canada for all (? or perhaps most) of the last eight years. There are quite literally tens of thousands of Canadians (PRs and citizens) who have applied to sponsor...

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Spouse had to do this. We hadn't submitted all pages (b/c they don't ask for it), got the request, sent them weeks before the interview. Then had the interview - went fine. I'm pretty convinced the officer hadn't and didn't look at the scans we'd sent. It's just standard operating procedure, I...

    PR card recalled and seized?

    I believe the original formulation is the right to a hearing, not that there must be a hearing, and one can waive a right. In other words: you got there with the correct conclusion eventually.

    Spousal sponsorship

    I won't try to speak for what is considered a big ceremony etc in Colombia or just 'normal.' I do know that (like in many many 'civil code' countries) a civil wedding (city hall or a judge or whatever) is required, and the church wedding is technically optional. My guess is for younger people...

    Family members did combination of some reading of the booklet and practice tests. In my opinion, the ones who read the booklet and then practice tests did far better (the other one sort-of read the booklet). Dates and to a lesser degree names: they mostly aren't trying to trip you up. Dates on...

    Not Declared Common-Law Despite 12+ Months Living Together – Does Relationship Nature Matter for IRCC?

    When you and your spouse returned to reside together in March 2024, did you reside in the same place you resided together before?* I think the chances of being refused on basis you did not disclose your common law spouse are high. I could be wrong - of course. -You dated before you began...

    PR card recalled and seized?

    They would/could eventually lose PR status in Canada. My impression is that you're not talking about the same thing (although I haven't followed the thread in 100% detail, so if I've misconstrued your point, mea culpa). Overall I think the point being made above is that the combination of...
