December 2020- Citizenship Applicants

[Rijo02]

Hey, here is the link: https://citapply-citdemande.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/landing it's still weird that they haven’t mentioned that anywhere noticeable, I got this from a friend and it does look legit, but verify with someone or may be we'll hear more about that in coming days.

Wow! @bhagatN, thanks so much! This is so kind of you to share this information. I really appreciate.

I think I should call IRCC tomorrow to verify the authenticity of the link!

Once again, thanks so much!!!

did you call them?

 

[BOYX]

did you call them?

Yes, I did (since it isn't working for me). They confirmed it's legitimate.

 

[Rijo02]

did you call them?

I haven't. Will do so tomorrow!!!

 

[Rijo02]

Yes, I did (since it isn't working for me). They confirmed it's legitimate.

I actually started the application and it is working so fine. I have been able to replicate my paper application in my online application. What exactly is not working for you? I may be able to help!

Congrats! Its nice to see that people are using the online platform to submit application.

Please I would like to know if you experienced a slight difference in the eligibility period of the physical presence calculator (PPC) and when you entered the end date of your eligibility during your online application.

Using your eligibility period to illustrate:
-PPC application date: Dec-2-2020.
-Returned eligibility period by the PPC: Dec-3-2015 to Dec-2-2020.
-Online application end date(1 day before application is submitted): Dec-2-2020.
-Returned eligibility period during online application: Dec-4-2015 to Dec-2-2020.

Please let me know!

Yes I noticed the same. The eligibility start period online start date is +1 day vs physical presence calculator start date..

Physical presence calculator : 2015-12-04 to 2020-12-03
Online application: Your 5-year eligibility period is from 2015-12 (December)-5 to 2020-12 (December)-3.

Is this going to be an issue?

Wow! This is the beauty of sharing experiences here! Thanks @simfhs

Anyways, I don't think it should be a problem. Here are my reasons:
1) I think it must be a system glitch in the online application.
2) Given that the period calculated by the PPC is more accurate, I believe the uploaded PPC will take precedence.

Worse case scenario, if they have changed the method of calculated shown by the online application calculation, it's just a 1 day difference which is why people are advised to give some extra days above the 1095 days required.

They removed signature and date in PPC?

Hi All - The link has been removed from the CIC website. It was there yesterday. Clear your browser history / cookies and you will no longer find it.
The https://citapply-citdemande.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/landing link is still working but it is no longer linked to the CIC website.
Anyone else noticed the same?

I just checked with my reversed browser for things like this and I found that the CIC website still has the online stuff: Application for Canadian Citizenship: Adults - Subsection 5(1) - Canada.ca. It will redirect you to this website: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (cic.gc.ca).
