You'll have to wait until you have an application number to change your address. They'll usually send AOR to you via email (if provided) or regular mail. If you know the person living in your former place, you may try asking them to notify you if they get any of your mails, at least until you can change your address. There's no timeline for anything now due to the pandemic. You'll get AOR when you get it.

Thank you, Yes I provided them with my email address and I shall just wait for IRCC to begin processing the applications and wait until I get the AOR. Another question, however. What if the IRCC finds an incomplete application and sends it back - in that case, I believe they do not notify via email and return the package directly to the mailing address provided correct?

IRCC will not notify you of a returned application through e-mail AFAIK.

Push the question mark right next to this question. It'll tell you that you do not have to provide addresses of family / hotel where you stayed when you were visiting any country. So, I'm going to say 'No', you would not have to provide this address.

- 2 when i landed i stayed at my friend house for 45 days before i rent a app, i applied for Nas and Health card on this address do i mention this addresse or not.

Yes, you should provide this address.

- 3 Q10b that says whether I was outside Canada within the 4 years for more than 6 months; however, I was in my country before I get my PR, do I need to provide a police certificate from my home country,as I already did before getting my PR. Thanks

Read the text below the question. It CLEARLY states that you do not have to provide a police certificate if you lived in your country of origin right before becoming a Permanent Resident.

- 1 Q 9b Has the minor been outside of Canada for a total of 730 days or more in the past five (5) years or since becoming a permanent resident? my kids they were in home country before they get landed PR.

This question is poorly worded and ambiguous IMO.

I've tried to answer it here but I can't be sure.

Does anyone know getting CERB affects your citizenship application at all ? Thankyou in advance.

Does anyone know getting CERB affects your citizenship application at all ? Thankyou in advance.

I couldn't find anything specific about citizenship. Below is what I found in IRCC's website. CERB isn't considered as social assistance.


Can I sponsor my spouse, parent or grandparent if I’m receiving a Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) payment?
Yes, if you’re receiving CERB you’re still eligible to sponsor, as long as you meet all the requirements. CERB would not be considered social assistance.

Is CERB considered social assistance?
The Canada Emergency Response Benefit payments (CERB) are not considered social assistance. Receiving CERB won’t make you ineligible to sponsor your spouse, parent or grandparent.

Hope this help.

Just a quick question, I may have to relocate to USA for 3 years from this coming August but my family will reside in Hamilton for atleast next one and a half year. Will it anyhow affect my citizenship application? I can come Canada for all the citizenship formalities, e.g. oath, ceremony, etc. TIA!
