For those wondering, I also got my exam invite by email. Montreal applicant. Didn't expect it. Maybe CIC is switching to less paper these days...

Thanks! Yeah, for now I'm definitely very lucky... I saw on the excel sheet that another Montréal applicant has an exam on the same day. Good luck with your application!

Hello, Convocation à l'examen hier. Ce sera pour le 18 janvier! Content :) Et @Alibou, je corrige, j'ai reçu un courriel... Je suis en dehors du pays en vacances, je vérifierai à mon retour si j'ai aussi quelque chose par la poste. (et je n'ai pas prévenu CIC de mon absence) Premier de...

Hello! I just received (by email, I don't know yet if they sent a regular mail, I'll check when back in Canada) my exam invitation yesterday :) The exam takes place next January 18. Please update :)

Salut, Il n'y a plus de courriel à attendre de la part de CIC. Ta demande sera marquée "en cours" directement dans ta page sur leur site, et les convocations à l'examen, à la cérémonie (ou pour d'autres requêtes du type prise d'empreintes...) se font en général par courrier régulier avec...

You can say that you were unemployed those 2 months to ensure no gap is in there :)

They never lived in Canada. No is your answer.

Bonjour à tous :) C'est cool de parler un peu français ici ^^ App received on Oct 16. AOR in Nov 6 IP since Nov 15. Bonne chance à toutes et tous !

Unfortunately not. The physical presence requirement is strict, and you'll need those missing days.

A) If you asked for your new work visa before the first one ended (very probable...), you were on implied status and as such were still a worker during that gap month. You can put a single entry in both question 9b and the presence calculator, and add a separate paper where you quickly explain...

11) Only list your Indian address if you actually worked/studied there . A holiday in India should only be listed in the presence calculator. 13) If your parents are Indian, you were Indian since your day of birth, and you should put that. In all cases, you were Indian before you got a passport...

You're not obliged to inform them and are allowed to go abroad. The only reason you may want to let CIC know is to ensure you don't receive a test/oath invite while abroad. In that case, they'll ensure your test/oath is scheduled after your trip :) But if you're traveling soon, the test is kinda...

No PCC needed for Canada. But if you've been in another country for 183+ days in the last 4 yours, you need its PCC.

For people who would like to send a similar mail, I'll honestly remove the part about the vote for/against the Liberal Party. Question 9c needs clarification and flexibility because it's confusing prospective citizens due to bad wording, and IRCC should look into it regardless of the political...

Hello, this situation seems to be common. Some members from the 13 Oct batch received their AOR this week. Yours should come soon hopefully! :)

You may also update both CIT0002 and presence calculator to account for the days spent since you sent your application, and sign them both again. You can add an explanation letter to tell CIC what you did. Good luck ! :)

I had the same issue with my home and mail adresses. Updated both, home address went ok after a few days but the mail address never did, even after a month. Tried again, no luck... Then, for some reason, when I got my AOR, the mail address just disappeared from my ECAS. I honestly do not know...

Well, the form asks for your adress outside Canada "if you live, study or work in that country" (I'm not quoting the exact sentence, but it's in the help for question 10a). You already specify in the physical presence calculator the reason for the absence, which will be holidays. Taking a 3...

No, you did not reside there and still maintained an adress in Canada :)

Only days spent during the eligibility period count, nothing else does. And yes, your days spent in Canada as a foreign student will count for half up to 1 year if within this period.
