    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Hi Andriy, You are correct - the issue is not having a PR card available. I am gone for only a week to a remote part of Mexico so no chance in getting the paperwork done abroad. I am worried about this happening to me...

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Thanks Chandu, Called CBSA already and they asked me to connect with the airline. Talked to the airline and they don't seem to have an issue at all, since I have my Kenyan passport valid with a US visa valid till 2018. Edit: I am travelling to Mexico, which has no issues if I have my US visa.

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Moving the vacation means that I'm out of pocket for $4000(non-refundable tickets, non-refundable hotel). The agent on the phone advised that I could get the certificate of citizenship, and travel out. I would have no problem coming back into Canada, since I am Canadian when I come back. The...

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Guys, I got my pink letter in the mail today. Unfortunately, my oath is booked for May 29th, and I am leaving on May 30th on a very expensive vacation for one week. I had called and spoken with the agent a few days back to push my oath back. She had put notes in my file but I guess no one...

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Hi chandu, According to the officer I met after my test, every RQ needs an approval by the judge. In my case, the officer was satisfied by my response and the documents, and she was going to endorse my file for the judge to look at. I think at this point, if the RQ has been ok'd by the...

    Hi gang! Chatted with an agent a few minutes ago. My file is finally updated with test results and comments, and has been moved back to the Scarborough office for RQ review. Agent said it should take between 2 - 6 months to schedule my Oath. I let them know that I would be out of town from...

    How expensive is it to bring a lawyer on board? Also, is this something that you can do yourself?

    Dak Trader, if I were you, I would be applying for a Writ of Mandamus. Your timelines are crazy.

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Sorry to hear that Chandu, you should really look into exposing this to someone with authority or even to the media. This is ridiculous! Also, please fix the date on the table for Woodex, it shows as May 26th instead of May 6th. Cheers, Kenyadian

    Incomplete Application

    Not sure if that's the best option, if you apply twice it will only serve to confuse the agents processing the file.

    MAY 2013 Applications (Citizenship)

    Is there a thread for other Sept 2013 Applicants? Suggest you check with them what is happening with their files, otherwise check on the link in my signature. I think expecting any movement on your file when you applied less than 8 months ago is very optimistic. It looks like local offices...

    Incomplete Application

    They will not ask you to pay again if they resend your application. My suggestion is send the missing document, along with a cover letter explaining what happened and a copy of the application form. My initial application got sent back to me because the photographer had not stamped the...
