So I am remembering this https://web.archive.org/web/20150214054312/http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/relatives-apply-who.asp boneheaded, stupid idiot rule where you couldn't sponsor your brother as long as your parents were alive. A year ago on this forum...

I read several times on this board that it's futile now and they won't grant exceptions now. That's not so. Every case is different. I was short by 157 days (however 133 of those were for helping out with my baby nephew as a medical necessity) and yet here we are: I am invited to take the oath...

I have a citizenship application ongoing since 2013 (old rules) and I have my hearing on Tuesday. The notice says "all your original documents that support your citizenship application (as listen in the document checklist in the citizenship application form)" but that form now is for the new...

How do they imagine proving which country you've been within the Schengen area? There are no borders, no proof whatsoever, I have mostly stayed with various family members and moved around by car, there are no train or plane tickets, hotels, absolutely nothing beyond landing in a country and...

As of this September 1, I am six years PR and I have enough days under the new rules but not under the old ones. I did file for citizenship in 2013, passed my test in 2014 May and haven't heard of the CIC since. My MP's office nudged them on the anniversary of my test and in the five months...

I have sent in my RQ in December 2013, passed my test on May 7. Nothing since. According to eCAS it's processing and the last entry is that I need to appear for test. It doesn't even say I passed the test despite I did. I understand I may need to appear before a judge but seriously, it's been...

When I immigrated in 2008 I filed my IELTS results (8 points out 9, way way higher than the basics citizenship requires). Those results have expired by now but -- would the CIC still accept them? Quoting the CIC website "Third-party test results that you already sent to CICfor a previous...

My PR card expires 2013 September 1. I am planning to file for renewal this November. Will I be able to travel with the old one...?
