    Canadian citizenship application

    A visit, even for 2 months at a stretch doesn't mean a change of address. So your address remains the same. But you need to include the visit when you calculate physical presence...

    Canadian citizenship application

    If you apply before the last week of June, you should be fine. If you do apply well after, let's say Sept 2017 and you have not got a new passport. You could still apply for citizenship, just let them know your passport expired and that you are in the process of renewing the passport or that...

    Canadian citizenship application

    If your Canadian travel document start date is well before the date of expiry of the old passport then you have no gap. All they look for is within the last 6 years you have valid passports/ travel document for all through. Even if you have gaps, no sweat, you say answer yes to the gaps and...

    anyone who had a removal order prier to becoming a permanent resident

    The OP has said that the warrant for the removal was cancelled upon landing as a PR probably because the warrant for removal was redundant... so it should be all OK. All in the past. Not a ghost to worry about. The citizenship application should not be affected on this account. Security...

    How do I concurrently submit citizenship and passport application?

    Easy one first. Get a magicjack number to get a Canadian number and call the IRCC... Don't have a personal experience but I would think you would still send each of the application to the respective agencies. They have a way to know whether you have indeed filed in application concurrently...

    Test → DM → Oath ?

    ATIP is access to information and privacy and can be requested to know the status of your application with any govt dept. At CIC, after the test/interview the file probably sits on a pile to be looked at by a CO to assign the date for oath. ATIP requests make the CIC have to open the file to...
