I do not see any specific requirement that you must provide a photocopy of a valid passport that you do not intend to travel on. IMM5533 (checklist) says you must provide most recently issued travel document (passport), but does not specify what needs to be done for dual citizens. It then goes...

To note, there have been a few cases reported here of applicants doing this (outland-while-inland) and it being returned. I don't think anyone's figured out what the issue has been (or if just a mistake by IRCC); the response seems to be that they selected the wrong 'class' of application even...

I do not know your situation but if passport is of country that does not require visa to enter Canada, then they will request photocopy. (Actually most I have seen make the applicant figure out whether they send photocopy or original, but some offices do things a bit different) Anyway there is...

Surely instead of posting this in seven or so threads at the same time, you could use that energy to read the instructions or check other threads here? Please, just one or two question posts and then do some reading searching for yourself.

Then send to LA. You have about three and a half week, I'd think either should be able to do it in time if you submit soonest. (I havent been following how quickly at either though, just impression from various threads)

Seriously, read the instructions: "You need a guarantor for your travel document application. As long as they meet these requirements, your guarantor can be anyone, including a family member or member of your household." Note, there is a section above that for references, which is more...

Is there a reason you think la will be better?

No, no need to update about travels. Ircc may ask for updated forms later.

I don't think employers routinely ask for a PR card; you have a sin number, and you are a legal resident. PR cards are not the status. A PR card on its own is not proof of valid PR status, and an expired one does not mean status expired either. It's also not that uncommon for PRs to reside in...

Yep, just wait until you have 730 days, count carefully, then apply for your PR renewal. A buffer won't hurt. Don't worry about your PR card expiring, as long as you're in Canada won't matter much. Note with delays getting new card, travel may be complicated (eg boarding planes to Canada...

My point is you apply for the citizneship, you apply for the passport - either at same time or one right after the other. (To apply for the passport they may require you to show you applied for the citizenship). That's how they would issue you the 'temp' passport on urgent basis. Sometime...

I am 85% certain it's because it was at a land border. The issue coming from elsewhere: child will need visa or ETA, and both must be applied for in advance. And it will mostly be impossible to get - particularly visa instead of ETA - either if the child has a claim to Canadian citizenship...

Yes, you basically apply for them at the same time (you may have to apply for the citizenship first and then passort, don't recall). And yes, you must be outland, because if you were in Canada you wouldn't need to prove citizenship.

Please don't ask the same question in lots of threads. Ask once and wait a bit.

You will apply for citizenship and passport for child as citizen. Since the citzienship certificate takes some time, you should apply for and expect that a specific type of passport (basically 'temporary' until citizenship is finalized and documented - which is fine because passports for...

I recognize your points. The parts I am commenting on (partly bolded): -"You can't work legally" - this is not the same thing as saying that working using your SIN is illegal. -It does not seem proven that a dormant SIN means that the SIN 'does not work' - there is evidence that the SIN does...

Sorry, one additional point - when you applied to sponsor your spouse, you would have provided information (and copies probably) about their application for citizenship certificates. Keep that handy, that info will help you convince the consular people all in order. And before you ask: I don't...

The search function is not very useful here, at least can be hard to find stuff even if you know it's there, I was looking for a post of my own with a good link and couldn't find it even though I know I wrote it. So: contact the consular section of the Canadian embassy. Don't get hung up on the...

You originally wrote "If you can’t reactivate your SIN# you won’t be able to work legally." This may not have been intentional on your part but it reads as if you are saying it would not be legal to work (as opposed to it may be dfficult to get work because of the dormancy flag) - and the...
