    How does my wife prove she has been in Canada, to become a Canadian citizen?

    What worked well for proof is to take a course that is offers by government. The English Link classes are great for proof of being in Canada and they are accepted as a language proof as well. So you get two birds with one stone. They are free of charge for PR for 5 years and sometimes CIC will...

Got Citizenship in less than a year, and my husband as well, and he only had a few days over the required days. And here is why I would not recommend to sent anything extra.(This is just my personal...

    Passport Canada called but my guarantor couldn't speak English,what happens now?

    With knowing that the guarantor needs to be Canadian Citizen two questions that come up in my mind. When your grandfather is Canadian Citizen why did you not request a passport by decent instead of going to the trouble of applying for Citizenship? And how could a guarantor read and verify the...

    Passport Expired with test date on 14 oct (During the Citizenship Process)

    Not really sure, but my understanding was that you need to have all the passports that cover the timeframe for your 1095+ days. And I think you need to have a good explanation why you did not apply for a new one. Are you keeping your original citizen when becoming a Canadian?

    if you passed test & interview did they ask for the original record of landing?

    Yes they checked my original as well. I think you will be into trouble if you do not have the original. If you had your original at the time you applied, it must be somewhere. You might want to check every litter peace in your place. At least ask for the copy right away and hope they will be...
