    Dual-citizen applying for Canadian Citizenship

    Thank you for your reply. Initially, I wasn't understanding if this page was referring to a person that "would be" dual-citizen, when acquiring the Canadian Citzenship as their 2nd nationality, or if the page referred to someone that already is dual citizen, and are now applying to this 3rd one...

    Dual-citizen applying for Canadian Citizenship

    Hello, I have dual citizenship: British and Brazilian. Would that be a problem when I apply for my Canadian Citizenship? Am I able to keep all [3] nationalities? I have checked the rules of Brazil and England regarding that, but can't find information for Canada. Thank you for your time!

    PR Renewal - "Incomplete Application"

    Hello everyone, I have completed my online request to renewal my PR in May 5th 2023. Today, while just checking the portal to see if there were any updates, I noticed that there's a message saying" Incomplete Application", under the Return Reason column. However, I can't click in any button to...

    Exchange Student Re-entering Canada after short trip to USA

    Thank you so much for your reply! We would be traveling during his spring break, just for a week. Once back, he would still have 3 months left in his school, before it is over. His eTA is valid until 2025, so plenty of time. But I wasn’t sure if this would be enough, since he would be coming...

    Exchange Student Re-entering Canada after short trip to USA

    Hello, I'm looking for a bit of advice. We have an exchange student from Denmark, who arrived on the 20th of December in Montreal/Quebec, after a long delay to get all documents ready. We'd like to do a trip to the USA in March, and bring him with us. However, his situation was a bit unique...

    Moving from UK to Canada but unsure on how to bring money

    Hello everyone, My partner and I are soon moving from UK to Montreal, Quebec (Canada) in the next couple of months. We have a relatively large amount of money (£) saved across both our UK Bank Accounts (Barclays and Santander). We would like to bring this money with us, but we are having a...

    Can I legally work in QC with a SW1 (Federal) status?

    Yes, I got that from your previous message. I was just explaining where my line of thought was coming from, in response to k.h.p. post. Anyway, thank you so much for the help! That's great. Have a nice one.

    Can I legally work in QC with a SW1 (Federal) status?

    Sorry, what I meant was a "dedicated" path for skilled workers in Quebec Province. For example, my PR Card status is SW1 (Federal). For people applying to Quebec, their status would be SW1-QC (Federal). That's why my confusion. I never applied for the QC version as it wasn't my plan to work...

    Can I legally work in QC with a SW1 (Federal) status?

    Yes, we did land back in 2018 and already have our PR Card. I think my main worry was that I know that there is a dedicated PR card for the Quebec Province, so I thought that this could be a problem for me later on, once I have to renew my PR status and had lived only in Quebec by then. This...

    Can I legally work in QC with a SW1 (Federal) status?

    Hello everyone, My partner and I got our Canadian PR approved back in October 2018, under the SW1 (Federal) status. When we first applied, we had the intention to live and work in Vancouver, British Columbia. We are currently still residing in the UK, but planning to move to Canada in the next...

    Can I hold two Permanent Residency status at the same time?

    Thanks for the reply. But do you think this could affect my chances when in the process of extending the Canadian PR in the future? I just don’t know if this would send the wrong idea down the line, since I would be getting this UK PR after I got the Canadian one. Thanks.

    Can I hold two Permanent Residency status at the same time?

    Hello everyone, Before I post my question I would like to give a little bit of context... I am Brazilian, residing in England and currently with a UK Work Visa (expiring in this coming October), and recently got my Canadian PR Card.

    Opening a Canadian Bank Account from UK

    Hey all, I was wondering if anyone here had gone through a similar situation and can help me. My partner and I would like to transfer a relatively big amount of money from our UK Bank Account (Barclays), to a new account in Canada. Ideally, we want to find out the best way to make this...

    Soft Landing in a city other than the one from the application

    Ok. If it is alright to send it to a friends house, that shouldn’t be a problem to us. As long as this is allowed by them. In regards to proof of funds, do I have to go through all the hassle with banks again to get a proper letter showing everything, or as long as I show a paper of the last...

    Soft Landing in a city other than the one from the application

    Would they question anything though? Or ask for proof of income or address? Because as we will just be soft landing and not planning to move, I was worried this could be a problem. Plus, would they accept me providing my current address at UK to then receive the PR card via mail, or would I...

    Soft Landing in a city other than the one from the application

    Hey all, My partner and I have until December to activate our PR, by entering Canada. On our application, we chose Vancouver as the city where we will live at. This hasn't changed, but because we are not planning to move to Canada any time before February, we decided to travel to New York City...

    COPR - Do I need to submit my physical passport?

    Brazil is visa exempt, as long as I have held a visa in the past. Which is my case. So I believe i only have to upload a photocopy of it. Problem is: the upload button does not exist on MyCIC profile and I am unsure if I have to get photocopies of my previous canadian visas, since those are in...
