    September 2023 - Citizenship Applications

    I completed my test on Nov 6th and am still waiting for it to reflect on the tracker ... From the tracking sheet, I see many others in the same boat. So, it should be normal. Their work is probably slowing down with the holiday season.

    Thanks everyone for your responses. I received my AOR today (Dec 23). (At lease I think it is, right?) It was sent as an email with no attachment, containing my UCI, application number, and the sentence "This confirms that your application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class has been...

    September 2021 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    They could, since technically you did not follow their instructions. Are wedding/ceremony photos required for your situation? If so, then the explanation for not having a wedding/ceremony would be important. If they do accept your application and send you an AOR, I suggest that you send them...

    Applied for Visitor's Visa, Should I apply for Spousal Sponsorship immediately or wait for the outcome of the Visitor's Visa

    Per IRCC's definition of Dual Intent, it is okay to apply for spousal sponsorship and a Visitor Visa (and for the matter, Study Permit/ Work Permit) at the same time. As long as you satisfy the requirements of the application. There are theories of how ongoing spousal sponsorship could impact...

    September 2021 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    Yes, I did find the online portal easy to use. The instructions are generally clear. The online forms, though, have stricter character limits than the PDF versions. I had to use shorthand for institution names and attached a separate addendum with the full names. For the 20 photos, I made a...
