are you sure about this ? If I'm going to a country for a month and if I was in US for 1 hour (in another case) , I'' say US as destination? that will mean all my trips were to US cuz almost all the flight i took in these years were through US .

Would you send a copy of visas, boarding pass and tickets?
You have to write in physical calculator your first destination then your next destination in REASON FIELD.

Finally mailed mine after my payment receipt came through after midnight last night. (So glad I didn't pay twice!)

I went to a tiny UPS office in the middle of nowhere, suburbia. The woman at the counter said she'd already processed 10 to the same address in the last day.

Yikes.

Can people just read the guide first and only ask questions that seem unclear or not answered in the guide - instead of rushing to post here?

Please let people having difficult and specific questions/peculiar circumstances have quick answers to their questions by not clogging up space with questions that seem answered in the guide already.

Note on the age requirements [55] for testing.

I turn 55 in a couple of weeks. If I send in BEFORE my bday, I will have to take the citizenship test per our immigration lawyer . . . so will wait.

Will still study with my younger wife though -- did ok on the on-line tests, so it should not be too difficult we hope.

Cheers!

They can be found along with the application on the IRCC website.
Go to Costco or shoppers if you are living in Alberta . As them you want images for citizenship . Pack them in the given envelop , ship it to Sydney and prepare for citizenship test . As easy as that .

Just make sure you know the new specifications. Not all stores are aware of last months changes are some have given the old size to applicants.

In Canada since October 2012. Landed as a PR on March 8th 2014.
Hey all,

Just as an FYI - the request to have any immigration documents in the citizenship application has now been removed from the guide, as per the below tweet from IRCC. It is also still not on the checklist.

If you do a hard refresh (usually control + refresh) on the guide, you'll see it has been removed.

Even if you have already sent a copy of one of those documents (e.g. PR Card, COPR, etc.), then there isn't going to be a problem as you're not missing anything.

Good! Less paper work, more streamline processing!!

Those who have already sent do not worry, you are not missing anything!
