    Opting for in-person ceremony

    Damn, I was hoping you would request an in-person, because I wanna know how it works. I'm still quite far from this stage, but when it arrives, I will try to get an in-person ceremony. As much as I want to become a Canadian as soon as possible, it's a once in a lifetime thing, so I want it to be...

    Passport after e Certificate

    It seems like you can. As noted in the post you are referring to, CBSA has no right not to admit a Canadian citizen and they must be able to check that you are a citizen indeed. However, it might cause some delays on the border, I guess. On the other hand, you can also apply for a Canadian...

    Can I Create citizenship application account before eligibility

    Yes you can. The Physical presence calculator will be flagging red and saying that you are not yet eligible, but you can still work on all other sections of the application. Fun fact: you can even submit your application (even with Physical presence calculator saying you are not eligible), but...

    Passport after e Certificate

    You have absolutely no obligation to apply for a Canadian passport at all. You can do it immediately after getting your citizenship, you can do it in a year, in 50 years or never at all. However, if you're planning on travelling abroad you should know that you MUST enter Canada only with a...

    What is Permanent Residence Portal?

    If you already landed and got your PR card, then you don't need the PR portal. It's only for those applying for PR, confirming their PR inland and applying for a new PR card or PRTD. First link in Google: https://prson-srpel.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/login

    Alberta driver's license exchange for Ontario (2+ years experience out of country)

    Ok, if this is important, there should also be an option to bring a driving record from home country, then they will count all the driving experience you have. I was told so in SAAQ. I think it should be more or less the same in BC and ON.

    Alberta driver's license exchange for Ontario (2+ years experience out of country)

    I was in the situation a little bit similar to yours: I was exchanging SK drivers license to QC one. My country doesn't have any agreements with any of Canadian provinces, so to obtain full class 5 license in SK first I had to pass all the tests. When I moved to QC, the SK license was just a few...

    Should I create EE profile now or do EOR first to get writing score from 7 to 7.5?

    It's obvious that no one but you can answer your question, that is why you get mixed responses. Whether to go for EOR or not is only you can decide: if you think that your essay is worth 7.5, then go for it, if you don't - don't. You have to understand, that they will not give you additional 0.5...

    Progress bar disappeared?

    Why are you caring about this progress bar so much?! It never meant anything. At all! It just counts the days since AOR to the 6 months mark. That's it. Your application can be finalized when your progress bar is at let's say 40% or a year after it had reached 100%. Besides, it randomly appears...

    Confirm about Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) requirement for Express Entry

    Well, yes, that’s correct and that’s clearly written on the IRCC website. However an immigration officer working on your file might request a PCC even for the period earlier that 10 years ago if he/she thinks that would be necessary.

    Hey, everyone! Just wanted to let you know about my experience with online SIN application. I landed last week on September 16th and now spending my quarantine at AirBnB rental, which was rented for one month exactly. On the next day after the landing, September 17th, I filled an online...

    Track your PR card timeline and processing times here

    Hey, guys. It seems like most of inland applicants have to wait for their PR cards for months while outlanders receive cards in less than a month. Pretty unfair. Having said that, I’m an Outland applicant who landed last week on September 16th. I didn’t provide any address for PR card delivery...

    Landing experience - September 16th, 2020 - Toronto Pearson Terminal 1

    I guess you’re right. It was absolutely their mistake, but for some reason I wanted everything to be done right. However, it seems like all my efforts were in vain as the officer most probably didn’t pass the form I left him to the right place. I read that people at least get some kind of...

    Hello to everyone! I would like to share my landing experience in hope that someone might find it helpful. Background: I’m a Saskatchewan PNP applicant with COPR received before March 18th. You can see my timeline in the signature if you like. I’m from Moscow, Russia. Unfortunately, Russia...

    Sinp nomination but ielts expired.

    No, it's not required as long as your test scores allow you to create an Express entry profile. But keep in mind that SINP's OID category doesn't give you 600 CRS points in EE and your PR application should be paper based.

    PNP Acceptance

    Both points for siblings and for PNP belong to the same category - 'D. Additional points' which are limited to a maximum of 600 points. Therefore, if you get 600 points for a provincial nomination, you can't get any points for siblings. And I'm sure that those 600 are more than enough to secure...

    Post CoPR Expiry Options

    No, there won't be any issues in the future, your spouse will be able to add you to her EE application or sponsor you later through Family Sponsorship class. However, that fact that you're exempt from the travel ban doesn't mean that you're exempt from the right to ask for COPR extension. Just...
