    October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

    You don't have to wait for a line to appear on ECAS before applying for your passport, but you MUST wait the two days for it to be input into the system. The people administering your oath will tell you this multiple times during your ceremony. I took my oath on a Weds and waited until the next...

    Driving own car for soft landing -urgent

    You can drive in your car, however, you can't import it without a specific letter from your lien holder that they release you to do it. Most of the time, they will NOT do that and you'll not be able to import the car until you've paid it off in full and they release the title.

    Generic application Form (imm0008e) won't let me write my name exactly as shown in passport

    When they ask you to write your name exactly as it appears in your passport, it is sort of implied that it would need to contain only letters in English or French. The accent on the i is used only for emphasis, is it not? You can, if you wish, add a separate sheet and make a note that the...

    Immigration medicals -Typhoid

    As long as you are not still a carrier and are in fact clear of the bacterium then you SHOULD be OK, however, this is the first time I've ever seen someone posting about immigration right after recovering from Typhoid so there really isn't a lot of information to go on. ;)

    Generic application Form (imm0008e) won't let me write my name exactly as shown in passport

    What letter would that translate to in either English or French? Try that route. What you are trying to input is a special character and that is why you are getting errors. If the letter translates to an i, then use i. If it translates in a unique sound that might be more problematic, but still...

    Family member declarations

    They are not listed on that form, that is correct, however they are listed in another (the number escapes me at the moment). They do NOT need to undergo medicals or have PCC's done.

    october 2017 citizenship applicants

    Read the official Discover Canada book that he was given. That is the ONLY resource he should need in order to pass his test. I have no idea what kinds of questions and information is located on the site you noted here, but if they don't have the same data as Discover Canada he could find...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    As long as you did NOT receive your PR based on the refugee claim then you are safe to travel to your home country. You stated you applied for and received your PR based on an H & C application. If this is the case, then you're fine.

    Conjugal Partners

    No, your divorce not being finalized is not an immigration barrier, sorry. He can either come here or you can go there to wait for the finalization of your divorce. If you live together for 12 consecutive months then you are common law and your divorce is irrelevant, but I suspect you divorce...

    Supporting letter from sponsor & applicant?

    Write it as if you were telling someone the story of you and your partner. Would you give someone sitting there in front of you bullet points on a white board or would you tell them a 'story' about how/when you met, and things you did together and things you laughed about so on and so forth?

    If it were something that needed addressing, that you had not yet done, I can assure you they would've sent you more information by now. They usually give you 30 days to give information, without it they continue the application based on what they have. 8 months have passed now since that...

    It does not need to be exact, but close is good. An explanation letter of what he did is a good idea. Example: He knows he lived in house x in the summertime of 2015 and moved out just before christmas so he used June/2015 - December/2017

    CIC sent correspondence... Please Help!

    It is likely the same item you received on the 25th. I would not get too concerned about it. You can always send a CSE in regards to it to verify, but I suspect you will be fine.
