Right, I understand that my family and I would constistently need to stay in Canada to be eligible for that exemption.

Yes, I understand that H&C is generally for people living in Canada. For that court case, I trust that the sponsorer was living in Canada when she tried to sponsor her family. I own property in Canada, so when I start the process, I will be moving there. I understand that having financial means...

Thanks for the information. Kind of a crazy ruling there. I have one question. The Immigration Appeal Divison claimed that the applicant could have made a H&C claim for her parents if she had the financial means to sponsor her parents. Because she didn't, she was denied the appeal. Money is not...

Hi, I am a Lonely Canadian with no living relatives in Canada. I have 2 non-dependent children, whom I believe would both be found medically inadmissible when applying to be sponsored. My eldest son would be found inadmissible himself while my youngest son's spouse would be found inadmissible...

Thank you everyone! My certificate was just sent out yesterday!

Thank you! My certificate was sent out yesterday!

Hi, I believe that I might be a Canadian citizen by descent. I applied for a certificate of Canadian citizenship and the status of my application was just updated to "Decision Made." I was contacted by IRCC, who wanted to know when my father immigrated to the U.S. from Canada. He immigrated...

Okay, thank you. I trust IRCC will contact me requesting the Certified copy from Archives of Ontario when they receive my application. I appreciate everyone's information, it is really helpful

If the Certified Copy from the Archives has the same value as the official Birth Certificate from the Registrar General, I wouldn't need to obtain the official birth certificate, right?

Thank you all. I just mailed in my application. I'll have to wait and see what comes of it!

Okay, I guess it can't hurt to try. Worst comes to worst, I lose $75.

With the COVID-19 situation, I trust it will take a while for the Archives of Ontario to reopen. Would it be worth the effort to try to apply for a Certificate of Citizenship with the records I have, or does it make more sense to wait and see if they find anything in the future?

I have a feeling you're right. If true, I trust that would mean I'm ineligible to apply.

I was born in 1932. Besides his birth certificate, I have all the other documentation. I highly doubt that Canada would accept the Vital Record of his birth in 1888 for my Certificate of Citizenship. The Archives of Ontario recorded his birth in a collection labeled "Ontario Births 1869 to 1912."

Hello, I am a U.S. citizen with Canadian descent on my father's side. My father was born in Ontario, Canada in 1888. To my knowledge, he never renounced his citizenship. Therefore, I believe he still would have become a Canadian citizen in 1947, when the rules regarding British subjects changed...
