    Just noticed CRA profile says I'm single, when I've been married for 3 years...

    Couldn't do it through the portal or phone. The "effective date" my marital status was "single" was on Dec 31, 2016. As my marriage was BEFORE this date, I couldn't update it. This CRA website is a joke. And then the agent said I have to write and mail a letter to the Sudbury Tax Centre, and...

    Just noticed CRA profile says I'm single, when I've been married for 3 years...

    Thank you for the replies! I'll reach out to H&R Block. I was wondering more so from the perspective that I indicated that I am married in my citizenship application (obviously), but obviously the latest CRA record would indicate I'm single. Just hope this doesn't raise needless questions!

    Just noticed CRA profile says I'm single, when I've been married for 3 years...

    I *randomly* signed into my CRA account (haven't checked it after filing my taxes last year). And got the shock of my life, when I saw that my marital status is "single", even though I've been happily married for nearly 3 years! I called CRA and they said H&R Block made a mistake when filing my...

    Did not include nickname in citizenship application

    I asked this question on one of the Oct threads, but no response. I did not include any nickname in my citizenship application. This is the name I use for work (because my actual name is hard to pronounce). However, I did not add this nickname in the application itself. I don't know if this...

    October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

    Bit of a stupid question (but maybe it isn't)...I did not include any nickname that I use in my citizenship application. This is the name that I use for work (because my actual name is hard to pronounce). However, I did not include any mention that I have a nickname in the application itself. I...

    Urgent processing at Ottawa Case Processing Centre...

    The spreadsheet shows only a few people with urgent processing (I guess that makes sense). Looks like it still take 1 month to Test and 1 month to Oath...so at minimum, 2 more months. The urgency is a medical emergency, I need to travel to a place where family stays that requires my presence...

    Urgent processing at Ottawa Case Processing Centre...

    I just had my citizenship application approved for urgent processing. My application moved to IP yesterday. Can anyone who has had urgent processing approved say how quickly it moved to the next stage for test invite and oath (especially in Ottawa)? Keeping my fingers crossed, as this is a...

    Better to change marital status AFTER getting new SIN (just landed as PR)?

    I just landed as PR sometime back, have not yet gotten my new SIN number. I also recently married. Will CRA automatically be notified with my new SIN number? And then is it better to update CRA with change in marital status after I get my new SIN? Question is because I am wondering what SIN...

    I'm a PR, wife is Canadian. What is the fastest way to become a citizen?

    I just became a Canadian PR a few weeks back. My wife did not sponsor or have anything to do with my PR application. Is there any way that my path to citizenship can be sped up given that I am married to a Canadian citizen?

    Re-entering Canada after a 3-day interview in the US. Potential problem?

    Do I need to tell the CBSA official that I had an internship interview (with a very well-known firm) in the US? Or could I just say I went for a short trip to meet a family friend etc etc. The reason I'm asking is, if this may arouse suspicion as to why an international student in Canada had to...
