it was a friend of mine who had the interview and it was in Mississauga, btw this is not the only case Im aware of that had similar issues with UAE visa
 
I'm in Montreal.

when I left UAE for good I send back my passport to my employer at UAE so they cancel my visa. They did and my visa got a cancellation stamp on it.

The interviewer saw it and did not comment about it. it seemed fine.
 
Thanks Osamaamany

My test is scheduled for 26th of MArch. I hope there will be no issues like you suggested.

Dear armaan.ahhmad

hope you all the best. Dont worry a lot about this issue and you should know that every one case is different compared to other. I have the same situation. I applied for the citizenship in Feb. 2014 and landed in Dec. 2010 and had tens of exist and entry stamp on my old passport which used while landed but all those travels were prior to my landing , so why I should worried!!

Since I landed in Dec. 2010 I left only once for 4 days to Maldives for vacation and got entry and exist stamp which should come in the same line of my CBSA report if they have accurate entry system as they did not stamp my passport when I arrived back to toronto. I used the automatic machine where you should scan your PR and Passport.

By the way when is your citizenship test? or you still did not apply?

Get your all passports wherever you have entry/exit stamps as well as UAE visa page to be translated by notorized or certified translator. This will help officer to understand your stamps, otherwise she can give you RQ. Prepare well.
 
The officers knows about the e-Gate used in UAE. Therefore, you may be asked about it especially if your Visa to UAE is not cancelled.
 
My visas were cancelled in October 2010. I have also managed to source the copy of cancellation form issued by immigration through my ex-employers. One of this needed to be translated in English and I have done just that. I am hoping to be okay as I do not have the entry/exit records from UAE and it is extremely difficult for me to get it due to lack of connections in UAE now.

Most of the stamps I have on my passport are already in English. I am going to get the translation of few that are not. However, there is one particular page of my passport where there are so many stamps that it is not easily readable. All my travels are for the period before I came to Canada. What shall I do with the stamps which are not readable?

I have the same situation and dont know what to do ...I have also so many stamps of exit and entry but all of it were prior of my landing ..so I guess it should not be an issue for the officer
 
Question for all of you with UAE stamps -
Did you send the original translation or the photocopy?
Did you attach any affidavit or just the translation from a certified canadian translator?

Pls help.
 
I went to an official translator who claims to have done many translations of this kind for CIC. She said i do not need any affidavit as all the information on passport will be reported in translation.
I am going for test next week. Will keep you guys posted. Wish me luck.
