    Leaving Canada right after test and interview

    In theory, there is some risk. In practice I'm yet to see rejection in case like this one. your intentions should be staying in Canada while your application is being approved. But after that , no one will ask or say anything. Once you are a Canadian citizen you can come and go as you please...

    CDN Parent born outside of Canada has child also born outside Canada. What now?

    Yes this does clarify things. The kid is not Canadian. The law was passed to avoid 2nd and subsequent generations getting Canadian citizenship indefinitely outside Canada. The kid will need to be sponsored to become permanent resident first.

    Difficult case - became Canadian with A44 report, working in USA, RQ, etc

    that's why I suggest ACTIVELY following application... I think my high involvement was key the driver behind this positive outcome. As mentioned in my post, I know someone in similar situation who got DM after 37 months (and only after using suggestion #6 from my post).
