Hello everyone im sorry if its been asked here before i have checked but didnt find any info. I have been requested to send pics of pages of passport with translation. I have 2 questions
1. I have never travelled out of canada after entering here in 2015. And now my passport is expired.

2. I have so many stamps of entry and exit from UAE those stamps are in arabic but they do have (date, country and entry/exit) words in english. Do i still need them to be translated?
If yes, im in Vancouver so anyone here have used translation service please give me contacts details of the translator. Thanks.

1. That's fine, shouldn't be an issue.

2. I have seen several applicants getting their Arabic stamps translated so, I would recommend that you do the same.

About #2: yes, you need to get the certified translation for anything that’s not English or French. I can recommend the translation service I used. DM me if you want.

I've updated the spreadsheet. Given that you are a 2019 applicant, it might happen shortly. Those statuses will be set to "Completed" when "Decision Made" status is updated on ECAS.

If a stamp is in two languages (every word is written in two languages) one of them is English, do we still need to translate it?

Hello everyone,

Do you know is it possible to enter from the US into Canada with expired permanent resident card (I have a valid provincial health card)?

Thank you.

Their website says the below, so why do we have reason to believe October 2019 applicants will be processed anytime soon? It seems like it is more than 5 months away and it takes CIC multiple weeks to clear the applications for that week....I dont think I am going to get my citizenship well into 2022 based on these timelines.....thoughts anyone?

We’re currently finalizing most applications we received between
May 19 and 25, 2019 ?
If your application is complex, it may take us longer to process it.
