Wanted to follow up on this question to let people know that it only took 1 month from the time we had to submit the PR cards to citizenship certificate receipt!!

Want to report that our kids' citizenship applications from time of submission to receipt of citizenship certificate took 5 months! We just got them today!

Yes. They make you cut up the PR card in front of them at the citizenship ceremony (virtual) as an adult...

armoured - thanks! I mis-posted this in the wrong forum, I think. Going to the other board now...

Thank you for your reply. I wonder how long it is taking these days from the PR card request until Citizenship...

I applied for my kids to become Canadian citizens (I got my Citizenship a year ago). We just got an email from IRCC requesting their PR cards to continue processing the application. We must submit them within 60 days. My concern is they won't have any proof of status until they become Canadian...

It was the form called Physical Presence Questionnaire, CIT 0171 (10-2018) E. In past posts on the Citizenship forum, I have seen this form referred to as the Residency Questionnaire (RQ), but it seems to have been renamed (note that the date in brackets is: 10-2018). There are six pages and...

This is Quebec. (I'm in Montreal)

Thank you! Yes - oath is virtual.

There was no reason that I can see. MAYBE because I was self-employed for the last year of the three years (but my husband works for a company). But I hadn't left Canada AT ALL during the required time for PR, and only a few times since getting PR, all of which were documented in the CBSA notes...

Curious as to anyone else who got their certificate after a virtual oath ceremony. How long did it take to get in the mail? Thanks!

Yes, a full-blown residency questionnaire that they gave me 30 days to gather info. Which I submitted and then nothing until just now. A year and a half delay after giving them all the info, testimonials, evidence like phone and bank records, kids' school attendance, etc.

I'm sure the person who was updating the spreadsheet is no longer following this thread but I want to report that 3 months short of 3 years, I finally got a decision made and have an oath ceremony scheduled! I had gotten a physical presence questionnaire in July 2019. My timeline: Physical...

I got the full-blown physical presence questionnaire CIT 0171 (10-2018) E. They ask for many things including documentary evidence of physical presence in Canada, stating again physical presence, employment, where family members lived during your eligibility period, property owned in and out of...

I worked for two years of it, and was unemployed for one year. My kids were in school and daycare. I did not omit or forget any travels and during the interview with the official after taking my citizenship test, she checked my declared absences against my passport stamps and didn't see any issue...

Libu, please update my timeline: I unfortunately got a Residency Questionnaire sent on May 9 via snail mail i.e., regular post, when every other correspondence has been by email. It arrived at my attorney's office on May 16 and I had until June 9 to respond. I am so disappointed because there...

Congratulations! Do you have any idea why it took so long? Anecdotally, it looks like people either get the DM the next day or two after taking the test, or else it takes 3 - 6 months! I am in the latter category - Took test at the end of January, and no DM yet... Montreal office.

me too! we're one step closer!
