    January 2018 - Citizenship Applications

    Hello all - I wrote my citizenship test today, and got 20/20. As someone else has noted, the actual test was easier than the online practice tests. However, reading the study guide multiple times is necessary to remember all details. The interview went smoothly, I was asked about my job, my...

    PR Renewal - Got secondary review email twice. Any thoughts?

    Nope, no extra documents, and no, I had not applied for urgent processing, since I didn't have a valid reason to. I did, however, send 2-3 queries to IRCC, called their call center 3 times, and also logged a request with AITP at IRCC to have my FOSS notes released (which hasn't arrived yet, it's...

    PR Renewal - Got secondary review email twice. Any thoughts?

    Thanks Dpenabill, for your informative answer. Applying for PRTD is out of the question for me. I looked at the requirements, the documents required, plus given that I'll be applying from India, the processing times, and it is a waste of time and energy. Especially when I'll need to be there...

    PR Renewal - Got secondary review email twice. Any thoughts?

    Thanks HamiltonApplicant, that letter is indeed scary. I have submitted every document pertinent to my case, I'm not sure what else I can submit, if I do get RQ-ed. I do have a query, however.

    PR Renewal - Got secondary review email twice. Any thoughts?

    I also had the same thoughts. However, my mother and brother were in the same position. After 2011, they left back to the Gulf. They came back in May of 2014 (a few months before me). My mother's PR card was renewed without incident (she had also traveled to India twice). My brother's, however...

    PR Renewal - Got secondary review email twice. Any thoughts?

    Thanks, I got my PR status since 10 APR 2011. I went through the thread that you've pasted, I decided to err on the side of caution and send all proofs necessary. Also my family applied before me, so I did get to learn from their experience :)

    Indeed, plus I have all of the required no. of days etc. I was aware that my US trips will pose for an issue, but they were temporary and my intention was to stay in Canada all along.
