Hello, my wife and I are both Canadian citizens living in the UK for the past 10years. We have a 3 year old girl who was born in the UK, who has a UK passport. We are currently applying for her Canadian citizenship papers which we are told is a minimum of 5-7month process+ 1-4 months at Canadian Consulate in the UK. Given that we are hoping to enter Canada in the upcoming months and line up job options, the uncertainty in arrival dates is difficult to manage. Is it not possible to move back to Canada while my daughter's citizenship papers are being processed? I would have thought that the process is a formality and so long as Canada Immigration can see that my wife and I are Canadian (showing our passports and Canadian birth certificates), there should not be an issue with my daughter with immigration on entry at the airport.
Thanks for your advice.
