    OCI process

    Had the same issue as I applied for OCI for me and my mom(didn't do OCI for dad). BLS told us both need to sign for self attestation and that's what we ended up doing. Her OCI was also accepted and finished processing today.

    OCI process

    I have the same exact dates for those 3 events. I am hoping I get it here in Kitchener by Monday the 25th. Definitely should be here by early next week or if lucky, even Saturday(not sure if Purolator delivers on Saturday).

    OCI process

    I just checked the OCI status page and I see that the document status is processed and OCI number is generated. Also it has been dispatched from MEA(New Delhi) and received at Toronto on 21 October(?).

    OCI process

    I believe the Citizenship Certificate need not be uploaded on OCI document upload. Submitting copy of it in the application is fine. But my OCI is still under process, so better if someone else can confirm too.

    OCI process

    That is only if you are applying for a Deemed Surrender Certificate, right? That is, if you have lost your Indian Passport(hence, they are deeming the submission of those two forms as a surrender of the lost Indian passport itself). Not the ordinary case, right?

    Any new information on the latest announced travel restrictions please post here

    Not sure if this is the right forum but one of my family members(PR) had to travel back home in January as their mother passed away. They would be returning back to Canada next week(after the new rules take effect on 22 Feb). I was wondering if this case would fall under H&C grounds and if they...

    Passport application during Covid-19 pandemic

    Just wanted to let you know that I had applied for a passport application on March 16th(2 days before it was shut down due to COVID-19) and I received my passport in the mail today. Looks like they have started processing applications that were already submitted and may begin reopening very soon.

    Passport application during Covid-19 pandemic

    Yes, many people have asked them(Passport Canada) precisely on Twitter. But they give a standard response along the lines of "all passport services, including mail-in service, are suspended until further notice. Please wait until services resume before submitting your passport application."...

    Passport Canada has suspended its services until further notice. However, if you have a valid reason to travel urgently, limited urgent passport services are available. Urgent travel reasons include if you’re travelling for a medical reason because you have a serious illness because of the...

    Kitchener local office after Bill C6

    From what I read, they did email everyone who were scheduled for one. If you weren't scheduled for one yet, then they wouldn't send you an email.

    November 2018 - Citizenship Applications

    I think you can call the IRCC call center to check if they have any updates on your file. Alternatively, you could also order GCMS notes to see how your file is doing(https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/how-to-order-gcms-notes-step-by-step-process.513893/).

    November 2018 - Citizenship Applications

    Hey sorry, but Kitchener office is extremely slow! Looks like they are having tests for March 2018 applicants right now and one guy who had his test yesterday said that the officers in the interview told him that the oath ceremony might take another 4 months since there are no citizenship judges...
