    First travel to US on Canadian passport - sent to secondary inspection

    My bad I was thinking the person was traveling to US. Nevermind, CBSA cannot deny entry. However, they can be detained until cleared.

    Renew PR Card after in-person citizenship test

    You dont really need a PR card while inside Canada. Only thing you need a PR card for is to travel by flight, bus, train etc.. outside of or in to Canada. You can still travel by land in a personal/rental vehicle with an expired PR card.

    First travel to US on Canadian passport - sent to secondary inspection

    Simple, Individual shall be refused entry. Border agents have more power than you can actually imagine. They have the right to deny entry to anyone and no appeals can be made regarding such decision.

    A legal name change after receiving Citizenship Certificate

    First correct it in Ontario ID's (Health card/DL). Then use the same proof you used to get those ID's and apply for passport. We used marriage certificate in our case to get the new last name even though the citizenship certificate has maiden name. More information here...

    Citizenship application in process - oath in 3 weeks and separated recently

    Did the court grant divorce? If so, then add it using webform, although it should not make any difference after DM status. If not, technically and legally the person is still in married status, and no action is needed.

    Indian Passport Lost

    So sorry to hear. Have you tried applying for Deemed Surrender application. Take the non-delivered tracking number page to police and get a police report. Request for deemed surrender with the police complaint to CGI. I know its easier said than done. But, it can be done and takes time. Good luck!

    Citizenship Certificate After Oath

    Nope. "Closed" means they have accepted your oath form and your file has been sent for certificate printing. Mailing depends on when they actually print and mail your batch of certificates.

    Citizenship Certificate After Oath

    It depends on the office and the team that is conducting the oath. I received post ceremony instructions. However, my spouse never received such email, but the same IRCC office (niagara falls) conducted the ceremony for both of us.

    Gave my fingerprints on 17 March, but still no update in the portal

    It wont happen for atleast a month or longer depending on the office processing your application. The FP's will go to Vancouver office and they send communication to your local office about the status of FPs. Only after this step you will see FP received and BG completed. Hang in there for a bit...

    Citizenship Certificate After Oath

    Certificate will only have biographical information, none of the geographical information. So only data that is permanent to you is printed in the back.

    Citizenship Certificate After Oath

    The new tracker should update to "closed" either tomorrow or Monday. ECAS updates sooner for some reason. But if you click the "complete" you should see another line. You became a Canadian citizen on "your ceremony date".
