Are you referring to the US FOIA site? My report was in EVALUATION state for about a 3 weeks before spending a month in ASSIGNMENT and then finally 3 months in PROCESSING. I submitted the first week of April and received my report on August 22nd. To be honest, your request may not take as...

My interview was back in mid-March at Expo Blvd. Then in early April, I received a request for information- they need a US border entry/exit report from CBP. The report finally arrived on Sunday and I forwarded it to the IRCC office in Vancouver as requested. Hopeful this is the last delay in...

That's exactly what I did and v-soul covered all but one question I had on my test. I think I missed that 20th question and don't even remember the question anymore (I wrote my exam at Expo Blvd in Vancouver in mid-March). I just selected the 100-question option on the v-soul exam and kept...

I wouldn't expect it to be a standard workflow for processing but you could always ask. If lucky, the person requesting to might have the ability to do so.

Officially, you need to translate non-English visa stamps dated within the five year period of physical presence included in your Physical Presence Calculator. The specific advice on what stamps really need translation vary widely as does how each interviewing officer decides which stamps they...

Most were for work but some were for holidays. I admit my number of entries were unusually high. But I suspect if you have more than a page or two of US entries/exits in your IRCC Physical Presence Calculation report, I suggest it costs nothing to request this FOIA report from US CBP on the...

Still waiting for my US border entry/exit report. Is there any way to get the word out to new citizenship applicants on this forum about the massive delay in the US for these reports? Basically, if anyone here who applies for citizenship that has spent any amount of time in the US or...

If present in the US with a I-94, this method is by far the fastest. Unfortunately, if you were present in the US by any other means then you are required to make a US FOIA request. I made this request for a report of border entry/exits on May 3rd. Their initial written acknowledgement was...

Thank you for the response. I am not present in US on I-94 so am unable to use this resource, unfortunately. The only option for us are Freedom of Information Act requests at https://foiaonline.regulations.gov/foia/action/public/home Unfortunately, there are thousands of other such requests...

Well, I'm very very stuck in the mire with our family's application. Nearly a month after our interview, the local IRCC office requested a border entry/exit report from the US due to our high number crossings and US status. I started a request in early May with the US. The request was...

. Do I read 6.4 correctly? It clarifies that a partial day present in Canada as a permanent resident counts as a full day of physical presence in Canada. Is that the same thing as the Midnight return you mention? Thanks

On Wed 11 April, I received a letter from IRCC dated 4 April requesting Supplementary Evidence in support of my citizenship application. They have requested a copy of my border entries and exits from US Customs and Border Protection for the five year eligibility period, which ends on the date of...

Passed the test on March 21 in Vancouver. Waiting for DM. Hoping this doesn't drag on.

One interesting question I saw on the practice exams (I presume can be discussed since it is on the practice exam) is Who invented the pacemaker? On the practice exam, the answer was Dr John Hopps. But according to Wiki, John Hopps was not a doctor but a biomedical engineer.

Something tells me that just when I get the most proficient at navigating through this process, I'll take my oath and never use it again. :)

Best advice all week. Be right back ;)

I didn't see any questions from the Richmond Library web site about names of Richmond local, provincial and federal elected officials on the actual exam. To issue an exam like that would require a different exam for each examinee according to what riding(s) they reside in. This was not the...

I thought I sorted this out months ago regarding English requirements at the citizenship interview but just thought to double-check here... If I'm immigrating from an English speaking country, what do I need to do for English language proficiency requirements my interview next week? Do I also...
