What documents proves that a person has good ties to Canada in case of RQ?

  • Home ownership
  • Mortgage / Lease for entire period
  • Life Insurance
  • Car ownership
  • Business ownership
  • Tax assessment documents - personal and business
  • Proof of contribution to the society / donations to church etc

Does the above help to prove my case?

How many physical presence days in Canada do you have in the 4 year citizenship qualifying period?

The above might prove your ties with Canada in case they want to forgive you not having enough days but in order to prove your days of travel, you should have your passport, CBSA travel history, copies of flights tickets and boarding cards and in order to prove your days in Canada, you could get your medical appointments, bank records, phone bills and things like that.

I went to doctor like 5 times in 4 years. I changes two doctors. Both of them were horrible. Hardly they spent few minutes with me each time I visited them.

I do not have any flight records but CBSA should have it. I am at the point care less about the citizenship as I have other options. But I will give my best to respond to them in detail. Me living in Canada - increased my cost of living and less opportunities. Because of family members I established my ties here. If they say or delay my citizenship, I will move out. Only they will lose my tax dollars, local charity work, tax dollars from my business etc. Not that it is a big deal to them, but at least it is for me.

I never wanted to stay in a country with poor health care and less opportunities anyway.

If you don't like it, then go ahead and leave. Nobody's stopping you.

You living in the US is probably why you got the RQ. With citizenship comes to right to vote and run for office and I can understand why CIC would be hesitant to award citizenship to a person who doesn't even live in the country; I think what they're looking for are ties to Canadian society rather than ties to Canada as a country.

I did read it. My point is that it's a commitment on Canada's behalf to award a person citizenship and that it's a reasonable expectation that that person lives in the country when applying. Remember that applications are processed by flow-chart type people and that they will follow their processes slavishly. It's reasonable to assume that it's difficult to e.g. make informed decisions as a voter if you're not living in the country where you're casting your ballot, hence the RQ.

Once you've presented your case, however, I'm certain that you'll get the citizenship your surely deserve.

How do you know that I did not respect this country rules??? I pay more taxes than many people pay in this country till date. I contribute in different ways financially to the society. I own home, car, etc. My intention is to live here that is why I keep my books clean. Also I have met the eligibility requirements.

I do live in Canada... If I travel and work in a USA does not mean that I neglecting my ties with Canada. I like to maintain a life style and like to live a life that I enjoy.. By doing that I am not hiding anything or doing any under the table work. I fully respect the rules and law in both countries.
