    No. Representatives are usually immigration lawyers or consultant applying on your behalf, not you filing the forms for your kids.

    Lawyer for mandamus

    @meyti your request is in nature different from what people deal with in this specific section of the forum. Canada, just like any other country, is free to allow or deny a foreigner admission. So, if your mandamus is successful, it just means that Canada must take a decision, but nothing...

    Application for Canadian Citizenship - A Comprehensive Guide

    Look for threads for this exact situation. Many do, it's mostly about keeping a precise journal of your daily crossings, report every single one in the physical presence section (yeah, it's tedious, still needs to be done) and, highly recommended, keep a healthy buffer over 1095 days.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    There's no FIFO here really. It's more like reasonable expectation based on how others went through it. December applicants have now waited nearly 2 years and a half, which is pretty much what many people stuck in security faced before finally being done, but those are broad observations, and...

    Do I need to mention years lived (2013-2018) in the US in my citizenship application?

    Well, of course you do. Have you EVER is crystal clear. Put it as 2 separate entries, one for the student status, one for worker.

    Citizenship Application - Question regarding MAINTAINED STATUS / Change situation / parttime

    1) It's a common situation, and it probably doesn't matter whether you put it as a separate entry as a student or in its own entry, since IRCC has all your information and can easily verify it, but if you're unsure and concerned about it, add a short explanation letter. 2) Congrats. IRCC...

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Not really possible to say. Fingerprints are for criminality, and you can receive a second request after it expires whether security has concluded or not, and it all depends on the security screening : if it's finished, you're very close to the finish line, if not, well, the fingerprint request...

    Well, that changes everything for sure! Good luck with the third try, wishing you a speedy processing by then. :)

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Your security screening was completed so they marked background as complete , but your criminality expired as it only last a year, and they put it back in progress while waiting for the new criminality clearance. Don't worry, those are very quick, your background will go back to completed very soon.

    Withdraw and reapply?

    "When" not if. Also, none of my business, but it may still take more time to be refused than to withdraw and reapply with the LOE @armoured spoke about once you're back from your trip and get the citizenship. You never know what the future has for you, you're not in a rush today, but...

    Withdraw and reapply?

    Thabk you for the clarification! As @Kiranmayi has been a PR for many years, I don't see how there would be such a discrepancy here to be honest. I'd understand for a visitor status where the applicant may be able to prove their presence and convince IRCC, but this isn't the situation here...

    Withdraw and reapply?

    @Kiranmayi 1) yeah, the test and PP assessment are separate. 2 and 4) dunno really, but in practice, it doesn't matter much because of the answer to 3. 3) 99.999999999% refusal. The citizenship act is very clear, you cannot be given citizenship as you're not admissible, unless you get it...

    employer address changed citizenship

    @Ricky09 yep. That works.

    employer address changed citizenship

    You need to put the address where you went to work. So yes, if the company address change meant you also changed where you went to work (and it's not some headquarter move that didn't affect you), list your job twice with the relevant address and date.

    How to enter continuous trip

    1 trip, to the first country. Add "also visited Portugal and Spain" in the details section. No need for details beyond that.

    Citizenship application: what employer address, local office or address that's on t4/paystub ?

    It's YOUR work history that IRCC asks for, not how your employer deals with CRA. Ignore what's on the T4.

    URGENT – Citizenship Application – Mistake in Travel History (Answered “No” but had travel)

    Also, I'll add : how you feel about misrepresentation risk is very personal, and how to act to "avoid misrepresentation" is probably something better discussed with a paid lawyer (same answer for all legal advice after all). My answer is more about how to deal with IRCC, and you already had a...

    URGENT – Citizenship Application – Mistake in Travel History (Answered “No” but had travel)

    Missclicks happen... But people are too eager to submit without reading everything again. For OP, in the order of your questions : 1) probably, but doesn't really matter. Everyone's application is separate. 2) it already affected it obviously, but refusal would be a stretch. If you provide a...

    Question About Adding Minor Children Under Section 5(2) to Citizenship Application

    A Minor 5(2) application can only be done at the same time as the parent, or once a parent is already a citizen, so no, you can't submit yours first then try to include the kids. It needs to be at the same time. For how to do so, search on YouTube, there are plenty of FAQs for "family Canadian...
