    Rejected Application. My mistake or theirs? Original document issue?

    UPDATE: I have found a somewhat poor quality photocopy of the small card, done about 10 years ago. Should I resubmit based on that photocopy, and concurrently apply for an expedited proof of citizenship?

    Rejected Application. My mistake or theirs? Original document issue?

    I need original proof of Canadian citizenship to get a new passport. I don't think the "commemorative certificate" will work for that, so I'll need the small card. My last Canadian passport is long expired and lost.

    Rejected Application. My mistake or theirs? Original document issue?

    I did at one time, but it said I was born in the US. I guess what I have is the "commemorative certificate" and the small citizenship card/birth certificate has gone missing 5 month processing time for Canadian citizenship certificate.

    ****July 2018 outland applicant with no AOR1 yet***

    We sent our application for spousal sponsorship to Mississauga in June, 2018 and it was received on July 3, 2018. Still no AOR.

    4 months, no AOR?

    Hi, thanks for responding. Now I am feeling even more freaked out, as this will throw a huge wrench in our plans. There is nothing in our email or spam folders, and we can't do the ECAS procedure you linked to because we DONT HAVE a receipt. We got no AOR. The only thing we have is confirmation...

    4 months, no AOR?
