Hi guys. To those who have applied for passport or about to apply, can you please help me
answer Question #3 for my Canadian Passport Application: Has a Canadian travel document (passport, certificate of identity or refugee travel document) been issued to you?

I was a permanent resident before becoming a citizen. So should i answer "Yes" since I had a PR Card issued to me before? Is the PR card considered a "Certificate of identity"? i know it is a card but i just wanna make sure i double check everything. thank you so much.

So I did some research and found this on IRCC website: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/passport/travel-documents/types.asp According to this you do not put the PR card in #3 as the certificate of identity is a separate document.

Hi all,

I finally got my test invitation (check my signature). ;D ;D ;D

I have a question:
I have a new passport that has almost no stamps and a cancelled passport that has many stamps.

Do I need to translate passport stamps that have some other foreign language text accompanying the English text in my old cancelled passport?

Please advise.

Thanks

Congrats for the test invite!!!

You are good as long as English is readable on stamps. Senior members can give you concrete answer on this.

I had a similar situation, I am not an expert on but at least i can share my experience. I didn't translate any of mine as stamps were both in Foreign Language/English and those were accepted without any further scrutiny.
-OR-
If you have time and Money!!! what you can do is, you can have any certified translate to translate each stamp for you. Or you can do it by your won by creating an excel sheet and jot down all stamps in order.

@dudegujrat: eCAS was updated then I received the letter today.
Be prepared, you might get the letter any time.

Fingerprints request will not delay your process unless police find a Fingerprint match in which police start investigation.
In my case, the results were sent to immigration the same day cuz I have not history of any problems.

Good luck to you,

Hi All,

This message is to all the July applicants still waiting for Oath, or who haven't completed test, hang in there. The waiting game brings a lot of stress but trust me the end of the tunnel is within reach.
Also, to my good friend Rigly68, I wanted to wish you good luck for tomorrow. you will officially join the circle of Canadian citizens. I am very happy for you. I noticed your contributions to the forum and I couldn't be happier when I heard you finally got your Oath letter.

All the best
