Your timeline is similar to mine. I applied for Citizenship in Feb 2013 and processing started in May 2013. I too had traveled outside of Canada couple of time to USA & India. Not to scare you but people who travel outside of Canada before they apply for Citizenship, fall under the category of...

From the date you became PR did you travel outside of Canada to any other country ?

Hi Sheb, You can go to a LINC center nearest to where you live and take test with them. You need at least 5/5/5 in writing/reading/speaking. If you get less than 5 in any of the section, you need to study English and do the test again till you get at least 5 in all of the sections. Good thing is...

purple shark, the reason they gave me was due to further verification.

ajoshi, Congratulations!! on receiving your PR Card. It is a big accomplishment when compared to other peoples application timeline and how CIC is treating PR Card Renewals these days. Can i ask you if you had been outside of Canada in the last 5 yrs? And how many days did you declare on your...

I got the Pro version on my IPhone 4S and it works good. I recommend you put an option on the home screen where you can read all the 600+ Questions with Answers rather than going through 60 Questions each time where there will be so many already read Q&A. To get those few unread Q&A we would...

What is the difference between Free version & PRO version?

Crossing the Canadian border by land from USA is relatively easy when compared to international inbound flight. By land people cross even with expired PR Cards but you need to carry your original Landing Paper and valid passport. You can tell the border officer not to report you as you have now...

RQ means residency questionnaire. If CIC needs more info to understand if you had really stayed in Canada for the number of days you are claiming in your application, they will send you RQ letter requesting supporting documentation like they sent you from Ottawa. Doesn't necessarily mean wrong...

Application received by CIC - March 28, 2013 CIC sent acknowledgement letter & book - March 28, 2013 Started processing application - May 29, 2013

Your PR Card renewal case is exactly similar to mine we can monitor each others case closely and update when ever there is any new news. In Sept 2013 it will be 7 months since i applied for my PR Card renewal. Have not got RQ and praying not to get it.

What documents did they ask you to submit in the questionnaire RQ? PR Application & Citizenship Application are two different things. You can submit your Citizenship application after you have been physically in Canada for 1095+ days in the last 4 yr period from the date you sign the...

They told me the same 36 months or less of processing time for PR Card renewal. Did they tell you which office your file is in right now?

I was calling CIC constantly once every month. I was getting updates as to what was happening with my application. They provided me update that the file is in Sydney then they told me it was sent to local office in Hamilton, ON and now when i called them they said its in Ottawa :o Why Ottawa, i...

No i did not get RQ request. My file moved from Sydney to Hamilton to Ottawa office. I had completed 1130 days in the last 4 yrs till the date i signed my application and posted them my application. How about you, how many days you completed before you sent them your application?

Check my post. Looks similar to yours. What are your timelines? http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/pr-card-renewal-timeline-t157008.0.html

Hi Must1, You can apply for your Citizenship after you have physically stayed in Canada for over 1095 days from the last 4 yrs to the date you are signing the application. It is advised that it is safe to stay for an additional month of so before you actually apply for your Citizenship. Which...

I got my Client ID number when i had applied for my spouse's immigration. Some people can check online using receipt number or some number on their PR card. You can wait for couple of more weeks, if it still doesn't show online, you can contact CIC agent and ask what's going on. May be they are...

Hi egyo, I don't know why they transferred my application to Ottawa. I am so scared and worried. Leon or any body who has gone through this route can share and advice. CIC agent on phone just reply saying that the file got moved for further verification. Don't know what further verification...
