Hello!

I have got the ITA and am in the process of completing the PR application. Today I got another application called "Proof of citizenship and/or search of citizenship records"

I have no idea how this case up, as I have no connection to anyone with citizenship in Canada. I can either continue this application, which then asks if I need proof of citizenship or to confirm if citizenship exists. Else I can delete this application.

What do I do? Please advice

Thanks in advance
/Dev

What do you mean you "got another application"? How did you get it? In your GCKey account?

Hmm.. the only thing I can think of is that someone else asked for that application and used the wrong UCI information so it showed up in your account. Are you using an agent/consultant?

You can try emailing IRCC, but my feeling is that you can just ignore this and let it expire. It's really got nothing to do with your PR application.

Thanks a lot. I am not going through an agent, doing by myself.

I will mail IRCC just in case, like you suggested, and let it expire if nothing happens.

Thanks a lot :)

Dear Dev, I am facing the same issue. Can you please let me know what you did? Should I let it expire?

Hello

I mailed IRCC as suggested above and I declined that application. Then IRCC got back after a month or so saying I can simply delete it. So it’s ok to delete I guess.

Hi ndubuisimike,

Thanks in advance,
