Hello. I am using my PR card for one piece of ID for my Citizenship application. However, I notice on the directions, it says that IDs must have DOB, signature, and photo. The PR card doesn't have a place for my signature. My Driver's licence does, of course, so I am also using that, but what...

IRCC granted me (as an extended visitor) and Open Work Permit which is how I was listed at the beginning of my 5- year date. Would that be a "temporary resident/visitor" or a "worker visa"?

Should I send them statements with my application?

I haven't sent in my app yet.

Hi guys! I received my PR in 2019, and have decided to go for my Citizenship. 1) I haven't been out of Canada since receiving my PR, so I don't think I need a Police Certificate if I understand it correctly. 2) For PR, there was a LOT of paperwork with reference letters and such...do you...

Wow! When did you become a PR? Your timeline is super fast! That's awesome! Woooo Hooooo

Hello. I received requests from IRCC twice, I think. Both times I sent a declaration that was notarized here in Canada. I documented on the Declaration of any phone call or contact I had with my ex husband and anything that would let IRCC know that I truly tried my best to get the medicals...

Is the test given online or in person?

Hello. I am applying this month. I have a couple of items I am sending in my letter of explanation. Ex: work from home job, name change, address change. Should I also include in the letter anything I have done to be involved in my community? (i.e. volunteer work at my local library, etc.?)...

This is of interest to me as I am in the same situation. I was told by my accountant to list my home address as place of employment since I am self-employed and work from home. (I work from home for several companies. IRCC will see where I paid taxes on self-employement with the CRA.) I am...

Hello. What is a test interview date?

Hello there. Thank you for your reply. Actually, I thought they have to have an interview with each of us before we are approved. That is what I meant. :-)

Thank you ALL for your time. Last questions... 1) Is the interview virtual? 2) Questions for the interview? (I tend to get VERY nervous!) My most humble THANKS for your time and input.

The passport travel history should also show the agent that I haven't left Canada, too, correct? I just want to have all ducks in a row and be as thorough as I can.

Very thorough and great advice. Thank you so much :) You've already had your interview? If so, how'd it go?

Thank you so much. I feel like I'm on a diving board waiting to jump off but I'm afraid. Ugh! I sound so silly. I am so afraid of me being separated from my husband (he is Canadian). It sounds so ridiculous, but I read of such horror stories (and I know I shouldn't) You all give me hope.

Your Citizenship app wasn't easy?

Hello. I received PR in Sept of 2019. I started working here in Canada the February of 2019 a couple months after I got my OPEN work permit. (I received my permit just before the holidays in 2018.) I've paid my taxes every year since 2019, and haven't left Canada at all. PR was such a...

Thank you. All I have for those jobs are my bank statements that show the pay from them. That will have to do..I also paid taxes on those jobs as well. Do you feel like this process is less stressful than getting PR? I was quite stressed during the PR process just because the paperwork was...

Hello. I am working on my app and have worked mostly for contract companies teaching ESL online . There is a place to show "self employment" on the app and my tax accountant says I'm self-employed as I am a contract employee. It is okay to say self-employed then add a letter of explanation...
