Hi, I submitted my citizenship application in 2019 and now I’m helping my friend - she’s applying by paper. I kind of remember including a second envelope in my envelope with my application but now I’m not sure why I included it and if she must also include a prepaid envelope with her...

Hey guys… I’m shocked! I was just going through my bookmarks and was about to delete this thred from my favourites as I no loger go here since I became a citizen last year and I was just curious to see what’s going on and it’s absolutely ridiculous that applicants from 2019 still don’t have...

Hi, just a quick question regarding passport stamps when applying and sending my citizenship application. Do we have to have an official translation of each stamp which is not in English or French? Thank you!

Yes I did. I needed to translate stamps from Peru, Mexico, Cuba, Croatia and some other countries. I used these guys - https://www.languagesim.com/ and it took only about 4 days in total to have it translated.

No but I selected “in-person” pick up for extra $20. That’s how little I trust in Canada Post which would be free if I let them send it to my home address but I prefer to pick it up in person. Canada Post has lost some of my mail previously.

Thank you all! I actually just returned from Passport Canada and I applied in person - my passport will be available for pick up August 4th ;)

So the government does it confusing once again. In the instruction section on canada.ca it says that the passport application needs to be send to Gatineau, QC (non-courier) however in the actual PDF appplication, it says to send it to Mississauga, ON (non-courier). So the question is... to...

I contacted my MP three times in the past 6 or so months... Filled the form once and then their email answer (from my MP's personal assistant) was basically only "you must be patient, there is covid-19 but IRCC is working on your application". I doubt anybody has received any real help, they...

I took my oath earlier today. I was reconnected back 4 times on Zoom as Telus Fibre optic (or possibly their connection) wasn't the best. Be prepared to wait for 10 minutes in the waiting room on Zoom. I also didn't know we must read the oath in French as well so be prepared to read it in both...

Hmmm... it doesn't help us much unless you tell us your full timeline. Congratz though.

See my signature, maybe I'm just super lucky though... I mean... it was about time!

FYI I just received the email invite a minute ago…

FYI I just checked my status online and I'm finally scheduled for Oath. I haven't received any email yet but it says I'm scheduled for next Wednesday (Vancouver single applicant). Citizenship oath activity status updated in the system: July 2, 2021 Oath Ceremony: July 14, 2021 Details in my...

Congratz, great to see some movement from Vancouver office. What a disgrace though... waiting since November 2019 and waiting another 2 months after Decision Made :eek:

Look at my timeline below in the signature (also single applicant from Vancouver) it may help you a little. Unfortunately nobody knows with Vancouver office. It's a total mess there.

FYI we are super soft guys… just look at Twitter and hashtags #mycitizenship or #clear_citizenship_backlog which should have been used to “storm” CIC in the past. There are only about 3 people constantly using these… or is there any other hashtag trending that I’ve missed?

So I've lived in Canada since 2014 and yeah I've had about 20 absences... But in the past 10 years since I was 18, I've travelled into approx 40 countries. IRCC has this info as I've told them when applying for PR and I believe they also needed this list when applying for citienship (I'm not...

Update on my application: Language skills, Prohibitions and Physical Presence have changed to "Completed". This is how my application status looks like at the moment: The complete timeline is in my signature.

This doesn't help much to anyone unless you tell us your full timeline. Thanks.
