    Parents and grandparents - What do they ask when they land?

    Good morning everybody, My father-in-law and mother-in-law have been granted the permanent residence through the parents and grandparents sponsorship program. They'll be landing in a couple of months and, because their English level is very low, we want to be prepared for the questions they...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    In Canada, it was faster and less paperwork. I planned my last trip giving me just enough time to take the oath, wait 2-3 days (time it takes for CIC to send your information to Passports Canada) and then request express pickup. Took my test on a Wednesday and had my passport next Tuesday. I had...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    Not that I know of... they didn't tell me where they were and I assumed it was Canada. And, sorry, I can't recall if I changed or not my phone number.

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    No, it never changed to the one in Spain. Not after the webform, not after the interview, not after the ceremony, ... I guess I didn't look suspicious and they understood my temporary situation at that time. But I'd like to insist that she (the officer) wrote in a paper that I moved temporarily...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    Sorry guys, for some reason I wasn't receiving the forum notifications. If anybody still have any question about how my process went just let me know. But, to summarize, I applied from Canada (that's mandatory), about 4 months after that I moved to Spain and request the change of addresses...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    Hi everybody, Just a quick update to let you know that I sent the address request change on October 2018, on March 2019 I took the test and told the officer that I requested the change of the address to Spain but that it wasn't changed on ECAS. She wasn't very surprised. Well, I received an...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    Well, here it says that you can leave Canada and the only thing you need to do is keep your permanent resident status http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=911&top=5 I'm sure there are lots of cases where somebody needs to relocate because of their jobs. And that's the reason...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    So, just in case somebody has been able to achieve this, there is no way of choosing a different place to take the test, right? :(

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    I guess you are talking of changing my mailing address to a Canadian address (a friend's, for example) but changing my home address to wherever I live in Europe, right? Because if I say that I'm still living in Canada it'd be misrepresentation and my application rejected...

    Moving abroad after applying - where do you take the test?

    Hi everybody, I applied for my Canadian citizenship not long ago after meeting by far the requirements. Now I have to go back to my home country for a couple of years. I've read all the FAQs on CIC's website and it says that I can move abroad after applying for citizenship, so I'm not too...
