    OCI process

    It varies e.g. Cancelled Indian Passport (in case of most adults) and Canadian Birth Certificate (in case of most children born in Canada) But that's something new, they were not keeping the originals earlier. Moreover not all BLS centers are keeping the originals. In my opinion, be ready for...

    OCI process

    Pretty much everyone who dealt with BLS (including their own employees) knows about the corrupt, and incompetent practices of BLS but I am amazed to see that its going on for several years. I have had an experience of handling multiple OCI applications at various times in the past for family...

    IRCC Scarborough Applicants - Online Test/Interview/DM/Oath

    If you check the top of second last page (5th page) of test invitation document, the email id should be mentioned about where the passport document needs to be emailed. For me it was the same email id from which I got the invite. Not sure if you received the document request in the same test...

    IRCC Scarborough Applicants - Online Test/Interview/DM/Oath

    I believe its the old email id. I also emailed my passport to this email before test invitation and they asked to send the physical photocopies as the older email id doesn't accept the attached documents anymore. The right method is to just reply on the same email chain (with attached passport...

    Notes from Discover Canada - Preparation for the Citizenship Test

    These notes are good, its almost the complete book :) I gave the test today and scored 20/20. Here's how I prepared: 1) I wanted to give the test quickly, so had only a couple of days to prepare (along-with my job) after the invitation. 2) I never aimed for 20/20. I prepared with the aim...

    [DECEMBER] Online Citizenship Applicants

    I noticed the update on the tracker. No email yet, it might take sometime. Most likely the test invite will be from different office (other than Scarborough) and but then main processing office might remain Scarborough itself (for Oath later and remaining checks).
