Hi everyone! I want to ask you something about returning to Canada after travelling abroad. I am currently waiting for the oath ceremony and am a bit worried about it as we have to cut the PR card during the ceremony. I wonder if a citizenship certificate ( e-certificate ) will be enough to...

Exactly canuck! I do agree with you no need to risk anything.

Some people go back to their home country via third countries. Such as, Belarussia could be used for Russia, and you can pass it by bus to Russia with your ID.

I wonder too. If any of you could answer me about Costa Rica, I would appreciate it a lot. I already e-mailed and called Cuba, Brasil and Mexico. Brasil was incredibly rude, and they didn't accept TD without a visa; Cuba and Costa Rica didn't answer me back.

After researching for a while, I came back with this statement: Every case is different. But the best thing is to wait to become Canadian before you travel. Please read other cases here: https://irb.gc.ca/en/legal-policy/legal-concepts/Pages/RefDef12.aspx

Ali1luiza where did you go? I am very surprised to read that. You are already Canadian, what on earth are they questioning you about why you are visiting your family and loved ones? Maybe it's related to your asylum country of origin. What kind of questions did they ask you?

Thank you Simba112. I know someone who went to his home country twice. When I asked him if he was aware that these travels might create a problem during his citizenship interview and the officer would question his reason for travel he said: I needed to go there because my mother has died due to...

Thank you canuck78 for your comment. Do you think e-mailing the consulate will help with the process?

It seems Citizenship will take at least another 2-3 years as you know our waiting time for a hearing is counted as 0 days. I have a friend who waited 4 years for that and now it will be counted as 0 days. 4 years of waiting for the hearing, 2 years of PR, 2 years of completing days and 1 year of...

Hi! Is there anyone who could share their timeline for the visitor visa application? I invited my sister to visit me but it has been 30 days there is no answer or message from the consulate. It shows on the website that the application will take 72 days. Does that mean I won't have any answer...

I received my PR card recently so it wasn't possible to send it to them. It seems in 2 years I will be applying for another TD :(

I was PR but I didn't have my PR card yet. In any case, they should be able to see that I was PR back then. But I understand they were overwhelmed with all the applications.

I have my PR but my travel document is given for +2 years.

Today I received my Travel Document. ( It's the second TD which is given for 2 more years) I applied for it 2 months before it expired which is in November 2021 and it took 8.5 months to get it. I thought it will be given for 5 years, is that normal? (under urgent application)

You're welcome! Also, keep in mind that they will like to see three things; 1) Enough money in your bank account 2) A reason to return to Canada ( University/School/work/mortgage etc. ) 3) Your return ticket and well-organized travel plan! ( Because you're from Iran, I suggest you prepare it...

Hi! I booked an appointment back in March 2020, but due to the pandemic, my appointment was postponed to May 2023. It seems like Montreal, Quebec City, and Toronto aren't excepting any visa applications related to touristic visas; they prioritize immigration visas. My appointment will be in...

Hi everyone, I'm thinking about creating a telegram group where we can share our process of receiving our Travel Document ( Urgent / Not urgent ). If you are interested, please feel free to message me. (I'm using Telegram because you don't see a phone number, which makes the application safer...

Now I see on the system of Permanent Residence Portal that I have to upload my address and a photo. That's so weird because I had my confirmation already in July, and I did it anyway but to be honest, that's so bizarre to me it doesn't make sense.

Hi everyone, I'm wondering if it's normal that I received my approval of PR in July 2021, but it has been more than four months since I am waiting my card. How long did it take for you? When you call IRCC, can you talk to someone on the phone? Thank you, Good luck y'all!
