If you don't have Canadian Passport then you have to provide an explanation for not having Candian PP. BLS staff may not accept application but you have to stay firm and force them to check with other staff at BLS. they will accept it without Canadian PP, just be firm, Best of luck
Just Checked and immediatly Gave back to me..
I did submit my surrender certificate without Canadian Passport. I had my Certificate with me.
Can someone help with whats the OCI process for kids born in US. We have applied for Canadian citizenship as well for our child. As US allows dual citizenship - we plan on keeping both the passports for our child.
Shall we go ahead and apply OCI using child's American passport or do we need to wait for the Canadian passport for the child and then apply the OCI. Not sure whats the process here I am sure a lot of forum members have had similar circumstances...any inputs or pros and cons are welcome.
