    Finding out the date I became a citizen.

    Do you have your certificate of citizenship ? It is written on that (at least in the current format).

    Canadian Citizenship Online Application - IDs

    I don't think it makes a whit of difference, but personally I'd go with the age of majority card.

    Do you need to go through Canada's immigration or cutoms if you merely transit through Canada's airport?

    I'd really suggest looking at the government's website - there are several different factors that play together, including whether you hold a current US visa, the passport you're travelling under, etc. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/transit.html

    Previous Canadian Work Permit on Spousal PR Application?

    I have no opinion really as to whether necessary, but for the extra 1 min work I personally would attach.

    PR CARD RENEWAL 2025 August

    Your passport to confirm identity plus expired PR card to allow border officer to determine that you are a PR, basically. Other variations possible but if you have those two, that's the most straightforward. (With your UCI# - which is on the card but also elsewhere - they will look up your file...

    Previous Canadian Work Permit on Spousal PR Application?

    I'd follow the instructions for not residing in Canada, and then include a letter of explanation saying you had the open work permit but in the end did not use it/work in Canada.

    Canadian Citizenship Online Application - IDs

    Yes, the ontario photo card is the exact equivalent of the driver's licence or age of majority card (which no longer exists, it was replaced by the ontario photo card.) As you read and asked about in the other thread. Same answer here as there.

    CBSA Entry/Exit Record vs. Personal Travel Journal - Physical Presence

    I understood what your concern is - and it's understandable. Side question - I assume most of your crossings were by land? At any rate I overall draw two conclusions: -their records are not perfect and they know it. -since your records coincide with theirs EXCEPT for missing records on their...

    CBSA Entry/Exit Record vs. Personal Travel Journal - Physical Presence

    So: -We did application for my spouse with a lot of travel (entry/exit to USA mostly, all by plane). We had only one missing exit. However, because we applied with a relatively small 'buffer' over the 1095 days (I forget exactly, perhaps only ten days extra or so). -Technically this one...

    PR, soft landing

    Exactly how they handle in ETA countries (assuming your country of passport and current residence are the same) seems a tiny bit inconsistent and so I'm not entirely clear on that. They may ask you to send something, or they may just send the COPR on to you. At any rate, nothing to worry about...

    Is Alberta health card a valid ID for a minor Canadian citizenship application?

    Oh sure, go and read the instructions and make it look so easy. )

    PR, soft landing

    For clarity: some here confuse the allocation of a COPR# on the tracking site with 'getting' COPR. You need to receive the actual COPR document, which is usually done through a passport request (where you submit passport to a visa application centre). The existence of a COPR# without the...

    Citizenship Application Delayed Over 2 Years

    I largely agree with the comments by @Seym but emphasizing it's your choice - if you want to hire a lawyer earlier, fine, but it may be expensive with little to show for it. BUT: since you got a second fingerprint request VERY recently, that is an indication that there is some movement and they...

    Inland vs Outland Sponsorship application - Visitor status and OWP

    1. Yes. 2. Yes. You will read at various places that outland applicants are NOT eligible, that info is just out of date (it changed a few or several years ago now). 3. Yes. We frankly don't have enough information to tell if this will have any effect on the OWP processing times. 4. Both can be...
