not one of the quickest. people from alberta have been crying about the slow response. so you may be in for a long haul. but hey, things can always change and you could turn out to be the exception. ;)

Is there anybody else here with no AOR and no other news from either CIC or CPC who has submitted his/her application in October? or I am alone?

Hi Chakrab, Though CIC want only Boi-Pages, is it OK to submit all pages of passport with entry/exit stamps to proof 1095 physical presence to avoid possible RQ?

actually it is recommended to send the stamp pages. it is not written officially, but like you mentioned the officer does check those stamps to see if you are correct in the residence calculator.

My understanding is that any extra document that you provide with your initial application is very good. Many people on this thread do not share my opinion but I have seen two or three cases where they sent their taxes and payslips and got their tests in less than 2 months after the processing date.

again that is my opinion based on few cases I have seen so far.

yeah I had sent my NOA and T4s (for work verification) and those help to prove your residency as well if you had a full-time job during the last 4 years.

i would say extra documents would be like phone bills, rent receipts, etc which aren't required at the application.

I am an investor and has investment/rental income from foreign (home country) and Canada too. I do mange my investment/Rental property in Canada myself. I have NOA to support as work documents with Investment Income & Rental Income proof. So in my case what to write under the "Work/Education" and "Employer Name" field as an investor ? Also do you think the income amount is matter? like if one have 20k to 30k etc declared as self income?

income amount doesn't count for citizenship. you don't need a job to sustain yourself, just to prove that you were in canada to do it :p

i am sure you have a company name (incorporated ?? ), use the name as employer. i can only suggest on this issue since i am not self employed. but you can write self employed as investment banker with the company details. if you have legal details related to the company, send it as well. again, just suggestions. search for "self employed" in the forum and you may get better answer. also try calling CIC.
