    October 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

    Sorry, I just realized I posted that comment in the wrong thread. I have requested for its removal so as not to cause confusion (old posts don't have the edit option). But according to a friend whose app was severely delayed (applied a few months ahead of me, but completed a few months later)...

    Online Citizenship Application: Do you need a scan of all pages of your passport?

    I just completed my citizenship ceremony last week. Just prior to decision made, the local citizenship office asked for a scan of ALL pages of my passports. Current one, the previous one, and the one I used when I first applied for PR. So maybe scan all your pages even if you don't need to...

    First day is 7:45-4:00. Second day, you just need to go at your assigned time. 1 hour lang if it's just you; 1.5 hours if it's you and your spouse. Regarding eCAS with more lines, I also have that, and it seems they're providing more info so applicants know what's happening, rather than keep...

    Federal Skilled Worker Class Action Lawsuit

    My NOC was in FSW 2014, so I reapplied, and got MR last week. If I get PPR, I'll be pulling out of Tim's group. I also have an EE profile, but have only 399 points due to age. I'm sure that some backloggers would have qualified through EE if it were rolled out earlier.

    Federal Skilled Worker Class Action Lawsuit

    If I understand it correctly, the Emam case already got a decision through the Liang test case. As such, the court can sit on the case and not take any further action. By filing another case, the court is compelled to make another decision. Case management organizes cases into groups. The...
