    Concern About Meeting PR Residency Requirement While Studying Abroad

    That's more or less what I expected (i.e. when your card expires). That means that after you return to Canada in summer 2028 (based on your current plans) you'll have a year to deal with things in Canada. Your biggest inconvenience will be the need to restrict travel or not travel at all after...

    Concern About Meeting PR Residency Requirement While Studying Abroad

    To clarify one thing: the PR card is NOT your status. You are not required to have a valid PR card while you are in Canada. Being out of compliance with the residency obligation does not mean you are 'illegal' - just stay in Canada until you have the 730 days. You basically only need the PR card...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    I'd suggest calling IRCC. It's probably a small mistake/glitch on their side - but check your spam emailboxes and the like, too.

    Passport stamps

    I'd suggest reading the instructions and then doing that.

    Travelling with canadian passport

    Generally speaking most big airports will arrange so that you stay in the 'international zone' if you're switching flights on a ticket/group of tickets booked together. EVen between terminals. Airside shuttle means you stay in the international zone. That said: it can be convenient to have the...

    Moving out of province PNP

    There's basically zero chance anyone would consider it misrepresentation in your instance - you settled more than a year ago, stayed more than six months after you became a PR (minimum given it will take some time), you likely will be staying with the same company, can show you applied for other...

    Family class spousal sponsorship (Outland) with H&C Considerations

    You should, IMO, consider that the background verification/inadmissibility consideration are all part of the same thing. I don't know if there's any way to determine from the tracker, and quite possibly wouldn't be clear from the GCMS notes either (which you can and probably should of course...

    Marriage with just two witnesses

    Do you reside together with your spouse now?

    undeclared marital status

    You've been doing it a lot - it's pointless. There's also a fair number of spammers that reply to old threads with embedded links, and you're messing with my brain algorithm. Find a better hobby )

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    If you're doing in-person oath ceremony, they will give you the paper certificate at the ceremony. In my view, there is no difference and the paper version is even better, because you get a nice paper version included. For newer paper certificates (I don't know exactly since when but for years...

    Marriage with just two witnesses

    Include a short note that your family members did not attend/participate because they don't approve, therefore small marriage. Would still recommend you show pictures/hold small event with friends or whomever else.

    Canadian Passport in person timeline

    What. does. the. website. say. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-passports/urgent-emergency-passport.html Click on the 'provide necessary documents.' They might accept less than that, but you should reckon they will require what they say.

    TRAVELING WITH THE COPR AND IMMIGRANT VISA ON THE PASSPORT

    I may have got a bit lost in this, in that I'm not clear what you decided to do. Frankly the easiest probably is just to fly to Canada without renewing your passport and doing the renewal in Canada. As long as your country allows that without too much dififculty, and things like you don't...

    Wedding photos

    Oh, barf. They're not looking for 'love story.' They're looking for evidence it's a real relationship, and not a secret. Save the trite clichés and encomiums to marriage for youtube videos and cheesy toasts.

    Shared Expenses/Financial Support

    One partner providing financial support for the other (i.e. paying rent for shared living space) IS financial support/shared expenses. One partner is supporting the other. (If it were, ahem, subsidies for 'services', that would be an entirely different matter) Obviously it CAN be beneficial to...

    Apostille Documents?

    Note, because you asked, if you want to get them apostille'd and it's easier, they should (must I think) accept that too. Just it's not required. [Note to others: some countries in Latin America have strict requirements that things must be notarized / apostile'd / authenticated 'by government.'...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    When you say except the last one, what do you mean? What is it that's not green? As far as I'm aware, background + LPP is the full thing. Next is the oath / ceremony invitation. This is generally not long esp in large metropolitan areas, but some geographic variance + randomness.
