Could someone with recent experience please let me know if the Wpg office provides their citizenship ceremonies online or in-person. The situation is as follows: I'm in the final stages of my citizenship process, passed the test and basically waiting for the ceremony. Recently I had to move...

Unethical??? This issue has nothing to do with ethics by any stretch of the imagination.

Do you know of many countries with no roads, no schools, or no hospitals? It's 21st century outside the window. How does having those make a country developed or prosperous? Moreover, healthcare in Canada is outright lousy compared to any decent standard and education is pretty mediocre. As for...

Friend, look at when my post was published )) We are citizens already ))

I'm sorry, guys, but it's just insane (not just csang, everybody with similar attitude). Someone who sent his application three days later than me got a test invitation, and I didn't! Should I be concerned, alarmed, panicky, wring my hands and hit my head against the wall? This is not...

Hi frontenacs, I am in the same situation and my timeline is very similar. I will also try to call them on Monday, but please post your update. I will do the same.

You do not need to inform IRCC about your trip. Their guidelines clearly say: While we process your application, only contact us if you: change your address are charged with a crime plan to leave Canada for more than two weeks in a row Your trip is less than two weeks. Besides, you (and...

Of course, the CIC staff may not have started sorting out post October 11 applications yet, but as of today there's no indication of them slowing down. Last week people were still getting their AORs about 30 days after delivery of their applications. I think the processing speed trend will be...

How come, my friend??

Hmm, my package seems to be ready. It is a pretty thin pile for citizenship, don't you find? Just a dozen or so pages. Nothing like when I applied for PR. Is yours also a dozen pages or so?

My 19 y.o. daughter is applying for citizenship on her own. She graduated from High School in Canada and she is now a 2nd year university student. Would a high school diploma be sufficient as a proof за language? Does it make any sense to send first year university transcripts? Thanks for your...

To start with, did that Burmese lady ever ask Canada to give her that "honorary" citizenship? If not, this whole situation reminds me of an old joke: I was chasing you for three hours to tell you how much I don't care about you.

The issue here is not that it makes more or less sense. This is the only possible thing to do for a country that treats its citizenship seriously. But, if your citizenship is a joke, if it is granted and taken away, and then granted and revoked again at legislators' whim, as if it is a toy in a...

I live in New Brunswick now and I lived in MB and AB previously (also traveled extensively in SK). In terms of job availability SK is FAR better than NB. There is also less discrimination of immigrants in SK because the province was essentially built by immigrants from all over (not...

Welcome to Canada, friend! ;D Please share your further experiences.

What do you mean by extending PR?? PR never expires, it's permanent If you are talking about the PR card, you can extend it as many times as you like. You have no obligation to ever apply for citizenship, you are free to remain a PR all your life. You can even let the PR card expire, and never...

Next Stop Canada hahaha. Sounds ambiguous. Ok, Canada is the next stop, but what's the final destination? ;D

Lily, what do you mean by crèche? Like a daycare for babies? Here they call it "garderie" in French. I had to google the other word to see what it means. :) Free French courses, if you are interested in them, are either at NB Community College, Dieppe Campus, or online. I can give you more info...

Hi Lily, Are you referring to north of Wheeler Blvd or south of it? :) In any case, those areas are decent, generally speaking. Parts of Central Moncton are run-down and shabby, other than that it should be fine. Riverview is nice, our family doctor is there, but every time we go to Riverview...

I think it's just north of the highway and already technically a part of Moncton. In any case, I'm not familiar with that area, I'm sorry.
