Are you kidding? You're the same person posting that you may miss your oath because you will be in Thailand on holiday for 5 weeks. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/what-happens-if-i-miss-my-oath-can-i-reschedule-t181544.0.html I think CIC have every right to close...

Congratulations! I know how you feel.

Border records are extensive. Last time I flew to US, they asked me about my last visit (4 years ago) and why I am again going to the US for only a short visit. You would be amazed at the extent of notes.

With RQ. Without is quicker, I bet.

One year here.

Absolutely. Be responsible and keep your PR card up to date, as you would renew any other government card.

Of course. Why would you not declare their existing nationality and citizenship?

It is your responsibility to renew your PR card. Do it. If you get citizenship soon, CIC will refund the cost of your PR card. I think it's only $50 or $100, so best to do it to be safe, right?

Actually, it is not this black and white. I have a friend who was refugee status but he was able to return to his home country to visit because the situation there had gotten better (i.e. war, and the threat to his life, had ended.) Just make sure you are open, honest and communicate your...

A Casio works too.

Relax... did you look at your calendar? It's 6 January on Monday. That's probably CIC's first working day back. January has barely even began.

So apart from using a calculator and adding up your precious 1095 days in Canada, what makes you a Canadian? You can bury your head in the sand and ignore all the information that CIC gives you but if it is that hard to understand then you have a real problem in life in general. You shouldn't...

This is correct. I have a similar experience. You'll be fine, and you do not need to pay again.

It is stated clearly throughout the process and even at the last moment at the ceremony that Citizenship is a privilege, not a right. And if that is your attitude then Canada does not want you.

Increasing the length of time to wait before becoming eligible to apply for citizenship could be a harsh decision for most people. However, remember that citizenship is not a right. I see some entitled people posting arguments on this forum. Also remember that as a country grows it must tighten...

My test was around the same week as you. I became Canadian on 23 December, along with a few other people I recognised. Congrats on passing the test. Enjoy your big day when it comes.

My letter came 44 days after my test. Give it 5 or 6 weeks, it'll come.

Surely you called CIC by now to check that they got it?

I got my letter 7 weeks after the test.

Hi, thanks but it won't be a nightmare. I can use my EU passport to re-enter Canada.
