    Mistake on PR application

    Hello, While reviewing my PR application before filling out my citizenship application, I realized that I made a mistake in the start date of my employment after my studies. The reason is because when filling out my application, I was told by CIC's call center that I should only list my main...

    Identification documents for citizenship application

    Hello, I saw some answers to a similar question in a few threads but they were either old or did not apply to Quebec residents (which I am), so here it goes, I hope someone can help me: - How many identification documents do we need to provide for the application? This is unclear in the guide...

    RQ versus Physical Presence Questionnaires, including CIT 0205

    Thanks for the reply. That is interesting... Again, not that it truly matters (it won't solve our problems) but did anyone here follow the whole case of Bill C6 in the senate? It was getting filibustered by the cons and got stuck there for a long time in endless debates that went on and on and...

    RQ versus Physical Presence Questionnaires, including CIT 0205

    Hi, A bit random but I see that there quite a lot of people getting this 'random' quality assurance questionnaire. It doesn't really matter, but I'm curious, does anyone know if this is a new procedure? Did it come after the implementation of Bill C6?

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    This is insane and completely outrageous!!! Then what is the point of Bill C6 if these "amendments" are introduced? If Lib senators and lib-leaning independents vote for either of these amendments the bill is basically dead. My conclusion is: either the Liberals are complete amateurs (Sen...

    Everyone here clearly missed my point. Nevermind.

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    It is a contribution, believe me. Canadian universities depend greatly on the money international students bring them, specially in the current context of budget cuts. That is why universities do their best to bring in as many international students as they can.

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    I do know the situation these people are in. It's exactly the situation I described. They are people that I personally know and who are very honest about this. They say "I wanna get the citizenship to get paid more in Dubai", or "I wanna get the citizenship because I wanna go back home and be an...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    Students pay taxes too btw. Personally, I paid taxes as a student, and a lot more as a temporary worker afterwards. And third, I mentioned a very specific class of PRs that I think deserve citizenship less than us. I don't know what OHIP is. I live in Quebec and temporary residents do not have...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    Exactly! As an international student, I paid 35 000$ for a 2-year degree! That's a pretty important sum of money that I brought to a Canadian university. I was also working while studying and I was paying taxes. Afterwards, I worked for one year and a half as a temporary worker while waiting for...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    WOW... You do know that Bill C6 doesn't introduce new PR rules but simply reinstate those that were in place before Harper passed Bill C24, right? So Bill C6 is horrible simply because it would delay your citizenship? But it's okay if Bill C24 continues to delay other people's citizenship? How...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    And the Conservative party passed Bill C24 and are blocking bill C6 for the same reasons, so they're motivated by political gain as well. At least Bill C6 actually does some good to Canada by allowing immigrants to feel home and fully embrace their new country. Bill C24 is harmful for Canada...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    I feel the same... I think Sen. Omidvar has great intentions but she is clearly very inexperienced with this whole political poker game and the whole "lawyering" thing, as she admitted herself yesterday... The Cons will continue with the filibustering, because at the end of the day, what they...

    Bill C-6: Senate stage

    My following post refers to Senator Lang's intervention yesterday: How someone so ignorant and daft can be a senator is just beyond me! I think this is the second time this guy "shames" dual citizens for even having dual citizenship. First of all, if someone WANTS to have a second citizenship...
