    Going on a vacation after applying for my citizenship

    It's an advice from IRCC, not a requirement. It's meant to avoid scheduling you for an interview or ceremony while you're away. So yeah, sure, let them know you're traveling to Vietnam for a month if you want, but that's all they need to know. Your address during that month will still be your...

    From which date i can apply for citizenship?

    @shaam Your question is "from which date can I apply". And the answer to that will always be : the day after you accumulated 1095 days of physical presence within the last 5 year, including up to 2 years (counting for half so 1 year) of temporary status, which includes being a protected person...

    From which date i can apply for citizenship?

    I mean, just input these dates here and it will tell you : https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/rescalc/resCalcStartNew.do?lang=en That being said, accumulated more than 2 years *50% before PR + no trips outside Canada : you should be eligible 2 years after PR, which you knew already since you listed...

    Citizenship Application: Work Permit Start Date Discrepancy

    It shouldn't be a problem. Obviously, you'll need to resend the webform once you get your AOR.

    Citizenship: COPR and PR CArd has no middle name. Foreign Passport and Sons Birth Certificate(parents name)has middle name.

    Well, it's not an "other" name in the case of your ancestor. Those are different situation. Not saying that a picky IRCC employee won't decide to annoy you, but if we're speaking probabilities, there's a high chance it's not problematic.

    Citizenship Application Photo – Can the Studio Edit the Background to Pure White?

    Photo studios are familiar with IRCC requirements. All you need to tell them is what the picture is for, and forget about the rest. And IRCC's job isn't exactly to pass the picture through some tool and validate that it's a pure triple 255 RGB white. Don't stress over it.

    Travel History Exact Date: Flight landed 11:50 PM, kiosk scanned after midnight—which date to input?

    When you landed, or when you entered Canada's airspace, doesn't matter. You enter Canada the moment you clear the customs, and that's the date you're supposed to give.

    citizenship applications stuck for too long - Those with AOR before May 2025 - Let's gather here and update

    You just have to wait more. A lot of applications in your situation get finalized in, roughly, 2 years and a half, and for the vast majority of them within 3 years. So, just wait, there's a high chance you're a citizen in less than a year. Consider talking to a lawyer if it's not the case by...

    Resubmitting online application from abroad

    Regardless of what the person you asked actually did : 1) you can't send a webform before AOR. 2) after AOR, it's pointless to tell IRCC something they already know.

    Lost PR card and beiing asked humanitarian and compassionate considerations for residency requirement

    Not necessarily. People can also only post when they have a problem they need others to help with, and move on with their life, and from this forum, the moment the problem is solved. On the topic itself : someone who only has minimum wiggle room, shouldn't see the buffer as "the number of days...

    Incomplete Application of citizenship for unclear reason of fees

    An application can only be expedited in limited situations : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/adult-minor/how/urgent.html "IRCC screwed up and I lost 3 months" isn't one of those. In practice, it's as if you just applied and the previous...

    May 2026 - Citizenship Applications Time Line

    She can, but it's not needed. IRCC doesn't really care.

    LPP to OATH Statistics Jan-Aug 2026

    There is no correlation between when the test gets completed and when other steps are validated. Even if you got your answer, it will tell you absolutely nothing about when your own application can be completed.

    Immigration and citizenship status question (q13)

    If IRCC wanted to limit it to a specific timeframe, they would have said so. They don't : it's since birth. The answer is obviously yes.

    Do i need to declare uber/skip/doordash etc?

    @MaplePath2026 unless it involves criminal activity, IRCC doesn't care about your work history outside the 5 years eligibility period. You can, but you don't need to notify them of anything work related after you send the application.

    Humanitarian PRTD refused left Canada as a child

    That's the kind of questions that you should ask an experienced immigration lawyer. If it really matters to you, spend some money to get a professional's opinion on whether an appeal has a realistic chance to succeed. If the lawyer tells you that chances are slim or even non existant, well...
