Hello, I'm renewing my PR while living in the US with my Canadian partner for the last 10 years. For the most part we only go back to Canada for holidays with the family. Should I record each one of those in and outs or can I just say I was living in the US with my Canadian partner for the...

I landed in 2000... I guess the 4 years prior to my applying for citizenship it wasn't really on my radar to record every land border crossing.... hindsight.... I suppose they had records of me crossing in their database, I'm not really sure, their explanation is confusing. It's interesting what...

I recently got denied citizenship... four years after applying. Basically I applied with very few days to spare, after an RQ it was determined that I didn't declare 13 trips across the border between Seattle and Vancouver... I travel quite a bit and didn't keep track of all my land crossings so...

I would, and I did.. it's better they have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Thanks, yeah I was just on the border 1097. They said they found more crossing that i didn't report too... so hard to keep track when they don't stamp at land crossings. Still don't know what the judgement will be, like you said CIC can still refuse it. The judge was really nice though...still...

There are two Oath ceremonies on Friday, is there any chance if things go well that I'd be invited to one of those - or is that just wishful thinking?!!

Is there an equivalent website to the one below for Canada border crossings? https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/request.html

I'm assuming it's because I was just 5 days shy of the 1085 days or whatever it was (don't have my papers with me right now). But I counted time away with my Canadian common law partner while she was doing her post doc in Seattle and business trips I took while working for a Canadian company...

I'm jealous of all these timelines - I'm just shy of 4 years! :o I get sad every Canada Day when they show everyone taking their Oaths :(

Thank you very much, I hope this is the case for me too. I can definitely see how what I put down would be confusing. I'm grateful for the opportunity to explain it and not have been denied right away, I just wish the timeline was a little quicker! My appointment tomorrow is TWO days shy of...

Thank you so much! Does anyone know if I'll receive a decision at this time or will I have to wait more?

:o It's been a very long process for me and I'm hoping this is the final stage before taking the Oath. I'm pretty much about to throw up just thinking of it. I applied in 2010 and took the test in Feb 2014, they actually said that I would probably have to wait 2 years before I saw a judge after...

Mine is white. Maybe they had a sale on purple paper? You are the purple shark?

Thank you! I have mine next saturday. I don't even know what to expect, I'm so nervous. Good luck to you as well!

Hello - I may be getting ahead of myself, but I was wondering about recent timelines for taking the oath. I'm taking the citizenship test on Jan 25 and wanted to know about how long after that they call you for taking the oath? I have a vacation planned for mid March and just nervous of bring...

ugh. hang in there Lassie. It's been frustrating for sure. I never know if I should give up and reapply or what. It's crazy seeing people that get it done in 7 months!

Indeed.... A lot of waiting. I did hear some where along the lines that if, for instance, your case worker goes on maternity leave for a year your file doesn't transfer to another agent but just sits on the original agents desk until they come back....? At this point I'm just glad I didn't...

Just curious to know if the Discover Canada guide has been updated since I received it in 2010 (2010 edition). I think the previous one was 1996 so I'm gonna guess no? But want to make sure. Testing in 2 weeks! Finally!

oops I didn't see the St. Clair Office part.... I was just so excited to get my letter after 3.5 years.... I'm not even sure what office mine was in.
