    Language Requirements for Canadian Citizenship

    I know I am replying to an older post, but for everyone's information, you can send your IELTS certificate (general) copy as your english language proof. I have passed IELTS in 2003, and applied for citizenship in 2019. I sent my IELTS cert copy and it was accepted. I have completed the process.

    Hi, I had a question. Are there any cases where the expiry date of the visa itself is different from the expiry date of medicals? Especially in cases where the visa is issued in just a few days before the medicals expiring? Would help to know this. Thanks.
