If you haven't stayed in any country other than Canada for more than 183 days in a row then you don't have to submit the pcc. And these 183 days need to be continuous.

Hi everyone,
Hope everybody is doing good.
I just came across Feb 2019 forum ad I saw 2 people got AOR from feb 2019. I think both of them must be from first week of feb 2019.

I wish all of us get our application process faster. I also wish and pray for the long time waiter too.

Good catch on that
Yup looking at the current speed, I reckon March applicants could start by last week of Apr
All the best and god bless

Hi, I have few questions, I appreciate if someone could answer them.
  • Q5: list all the names: I have one name only, should I write it down as a "Name at birth"?
  • Q10a: list all addresses: We need to provide only the year and month and to avoid having any gaps, should we overlap the month? Let's say I moved from address AAA to BBB on Jan 1, 2019; which of the following is correct?
    Address AAA "To": 2019-01
    Or
    Address AAA "To": 2018-012
  • Q11: employment history: Should we mention the name of a person that hired us, boss, or manager or the name of the company is enough?
  • For all the empty rows, N/A is required?
  • Both photos should be stamped and signed?
Thanks in advance and good luck everyone.

Make sure you read the instruction guide here before proceeding: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-0002-application-canadian-citizenship-under-subsection-5-1-adults-18-years-older.html

Q5. Yes. 'Name at birth' is a drop down option in the onlinePDF
Q10a. Yes the dates should overlap, else it could be deemed as gap and application returned. eg 2019-01 to Present at Address B, 2018-01 to 2019-01 at Address A etc
Q11. 'Name of employer', 'Address', 'Occupation/Field' are the relevant fields. No mention of hiring manager/boss etc
For empty rows, I left it empty in PDF and after printout, marked it as "-" (dash)
Photos dont need stamp or sign. See the photo instructions here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/citizenship-application-photograph-specifications.html

I had used the Jan 2019 version of form CIT002 for above answers
