Hi All, Do we need to submit all pages of passport when applying online? I don't see any section which asks for all pages.
I didn't. It looks like at least for online applications they don't need all pages. "Upload the bio page(s) of this document" it says in a travel doc section.

Start by using the search function on the board to research AOR timelines regarding citizenship applications. You can drill it down quite a bit to narrow the results.

Add to the fact that currently there is a strike which means full time IRCC processing officers are on strike. This will have an impact on timelines.

There are people who applied in march still waiting for AOR.

It also depends on what type of application. Paper, online, family, single.

Every application is different.

My advice is to Netflix and chill. You’ll get it when you get it.
Oh I see. My application is online and it’s Single type. I am based in Ottawa. But I hope this process gets done in like 8-9 months rather than wait for a long time. Yeah i was looking online and they currently processing March 8 AOR’s

Only the bio page is needed if you have it. If not, you need to explain why you don't have it. If they want to see the other pages, they'll ask for it later.

Why delay the process by having them ask for it if they want it? Why not just include them straight up front?

They may or may not want it, why add extra documentation for everyone?
Fair point. Still, it’s an online application. There is no extra paperweight to it. They can chose to check the bio pages only, or check all of it if need be.

It seems to be that those who have a lot of travel reported in the presence calculator, are those who are asked for all the pages. That might be a something to think about when submitting the application.

Then again, those who have zero travel might be asked to submit all pages to prove it.

In other words, it’s better to be proactive than reactive.

Hi All,

I applied for citizenship paper application for myself and a minor on April 13 and was delivered on April 18th. I received a text message that is supposedly from Canada post to pay for a package to be delivered to me which I believe it may be my application returned to me. I paid but did not receive anything and since I don’t have any tracking number, Canada post cannot help me. If anyone had their application returned from IRCC, how did it get sent back to them? Thanks.
