Scroll down to Manitoba Invitation. If that is not clear enough you can just google MPNP strategic initiatives and find out more.

I asked the admin of the thread to give me a new link :) I will share it shortly

Yes, as long as you or your spouse have met them; and if you haven't met them you will need to explain in detail that your family is very close to them and that there is a bond of friendship. The province wants to see that they will be willing to help you and make you feel welcome, for example...

Did you ever receive it? We have been seeing wait times of two to three months between arrival of the application and AOR.

You can if you qualify for one of the strategic initiatives. There is one for French speakers, one where they are nominated by the Ukrainian association (the person must be Ukrainian), etc. I don't know the full list but I imagine you might find it if you google it.

This one was very good: http://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship/

Hi there! The best thing you can do is sign up for a pre-arrival service. There are several and you are entitled to sign up for as many as you want. Some offer workshops or webinars to teach you how to conduct a job search, how to write your resume and cover letter, etc. Some host virtual job...

I took the Oath of Citizenship today. Thank you to all the admins for your hard work and to everyone in this forum for your support, and best of luck to everyone else still waiting. The notice to attend the oath ceremony was dated July 12th.

Hey there, sure thing! I will send you a PM.

The pre-arrival services letter means that, as of now, you can avail of free pre-arrival services. They can help you prepare to settle in Canada (learn how to file a tax return, how to register your children in school, how to prepare for winter, the financial system, etc) and/or they will help...

Congratulations!!

Not for Winnipeg, or at least the tests are not. I don't know if any ceremonies have been scheduled by email but it doesn't sound like it.

No worries :) the more info out there, the better!

I imagine by then you would have already had your ceremony, so you will need a Canadian passport. You can enter any country with your existing passport but you can't reenter Canada without a Canadian passport, given that you will be a Canadian citizen. You can request the passport 2 days after...

Thanks!!

Congratulations!! Is there room for guests at the ceremony in the train station? I was wondering if I will be able to invite 3 people (family) or if I can only invite one.

1. No, it doesn't matter if it is expired. 2. They mean your PR card, your ID(s) and your passport(s). I also took a photocopy of my IELTS score but they didn't ask to see it. The actual application is obviously with them, so it would be impossible for you to bring it.

Yeah I read your post about having sent them a web-form email. What I meant is that you may want to give them a call.

I would give them a call if I were you. You're beyond the 12 month mark, so now you are allowed to ask questions.

Yes, as soon as you get the invitation you should contact them and reschedule the date if you will be unavailable. Some offices send the notification by email and some do by postal mail, will there be anyone in your home that could let you know if it arrives by postal mail?
