    explanation letter for missing documents

    Why payslips - T4 for that year would clearly prove you worked in that period. Revenu Canada can provide T4 and NOA if they are missing. Also simply call CIC

    When to renew PR card

    This "routine" and "non-routine" timeline is absolute BS. I think they do some sort if average of timeframes! I was RQed and "non-routine" but my process took 20 months which is considered "routine". So many factors for citizenship including location, situation and ofcourse luck! I wish you the...

    Canadian passport question

    Yes that is correct. Actually that's why I decided to take my guarantor with me. The passport office lady told me that they were also calling my references within the hour. But this is for rush processing - rest of my family who got passports in fact never got called their references nor...

    Oath Timeline after test at St. Clair Office

    To be honest I NEVER called CIC even once! The only thing I ever did was change address which I did online! I don't trust a random call centre agent to look thru files and give me an update. Just hang in there and hope for the best! Good luck

    FastTrack Citizenship Process?? (grant of citizenship) urgently

    Actually we had one in Canada as far as I can remember - he was a cross country skier that represented Canada in Vancouver 2010 - his citizenship was also fast-tracked from Russia so he can represent us! :)

    FastTrack Citizenship Process?? (grant of citizenship) urgently

    The part: •You can't apply for a job or could lose your job because you are not a Canadian citizen. This I believe applies to sensitive jobs within Canada that you are qualified for but not getting as you are a PR. Such as in the military, sports athlete etc I doubt it applies to a job outside...

    Citizenship concerns/questions

    1 and 3 is false For 1: you can apply for a verification of status from CIC - it might take a few weeks or few days but I would apply now so that you can send it with your citizenship application. Also provide documentary evidence and explanation if you have to apply now. Here is the link...

    This is my experience in getting an urgent passport: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/urgent-passport-after-oath-t190090.30.html In my case it was done in same day but I had to pay an EXTRA $110 for it and I also had a confirmed ticket so I got to put the date on...

    Have any of you guys contacted CIC by any chance. I would if I were you - I was pre-RQed and already have become a Canadian and in similar timelines with some of you. My timeline is in my signature. Good luck to you all

    i lost my passport of my country with stamps

    I'm very curious to know how CIC judges in these situations. Would they require further documentation a if they feel suspicious of undeclared exits/entries and to verify residency requirements with more scrutiny because this will draw a flag

    i lost my passport of my country with stamps

    Please call CIC and notify them of this immediately. Also do you have a photocopy - because regardless of CIC dont you need to notify embassy of your current nationality? Good luck

    RQ before test

    If you did u did the test then u also went thru the interview. From the likes of my experience on Jan 30 (I was also RQed) it seemed they already checked through my RQ. All CO did was verify my exits/entries off of my passport. Cheers
