    Should I need to cut PR cards of minors as well during online Oath Ceremony?

    Yes, cut the kid's PR card during the ceremony. The name itself indicates it : it's a PR card, aka a card specific for PRs. A kid after oath isn't a PR anymore and thus cannot use the card...

    Oath Taking - Minors < 14 years can be they be in India ?

    Kids don't need to attend the oath ceremony, so they don't need to come to Canada at all. The father should take their PR cards with him when he comes back for oath, as the cards need to be cut at the same time as his.

    Eligibility for citizenship

    To add to @dpenabill 's message below regarding the "initial PR" : If you landed in Canada in January 2020, spent 2 years straight then left in January 2022, every day spent in Canada when you come back in January 2025 will just compensate the days that keep exiting your 5 years eligibility...

    Eligibility for citizenship

    Your PR status doesn't expire, only your PR card does, the only days you lose would be the ones spent in Canada outside the 5 years of eligibility, which are the 5 years exactly before signing the citizenship application. So, if you accumulate 1000 days before renewing your your PR card, all you...

    Have you ever held travel documents or passports during your 5-year eligibility period?

    No, you can use your PR card as an ID card in the relevant section, but not for the travel documents question. Also, the pages are only needed for the paper application while the online one asks for the bio page only. Some people like to add the rest of the passport in the additional docs...

    Mistake with Physical Presence-need help

    Don't do that. IRCC explicitly ask applicants to not request the travel records for the citizenship application. They will ask for those themselves after all. If you wanna do so because you have some doubts regarding your own recording of the exits/entries, yeah why not, but keep it to...

    Is it possible to apply for citizenship with passport renewed 2 years ago ?

    If you apply with a healthy buffer above the 1095 days, since you didn't leave Canada since 2017, there's a high chance that IRCC won't ask about the passport stamps because they'll easily validate your physical presence requirement, and not having the old passport won't be a problem. So, just...

    Citizenship application Identification

    Here's your answer, form the official website. If you can use it to access health services, it's a "health card". https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/governments/government-id/bc-services-card/types-of-cards And yeah, IRCC will obviously accept this ID card from a provincial government.

    Spouse with OCI card

    Also, OP should note that the official source above says that days outside Canada in that situation MAY count, which is quite different from WILL count. I would contact Canada's High Commission in India or IRCC about the specifics of OP's situation before taking it for granted.
