    Dual citizenship (with country that does not recognise dual)

    I agree with @scylla, If getting the Canadian citizenship will prove to be a hassle for your friend, and as long as she meets the residency requirements, she is better off being a PR for ever. Or at least her elderly relatives pass away and she feels ready to give up her Malaysian citizenship...

    Canadian Passport

    The best thing you can do is to declare your real height in the passport application and attach a letter with it explaining exactly what you are explaining to us now. In all government applications and process there is always a lot of room for attached letters and dialogue and explanations...

    Passed the test on Oct. 26th, no Decision Made yet

    I totally sympathize and understand your anxiety. But on the rational side, I don't think you have any reason to worry. Reading this forum you will notice that it is not rare that people are already Canadian citizens and their e-CAS still shows "In Process". I know that all this waiting is a...

    [Just For Fun] Two Citizenship Countries at War - What Happens?

    So... I know the situation cannot happen, and I know I would never be called to the military because of conflict of interest. But, just for the sake of the legal exercise, here is my hypothetical scenario: My County of origin requires all male to enlist to the military at the age of 18. After...

His application returned. He was instructed to send the documents again with a letter explaining the gap. He did...

    So... about our timeline spreadsheet. Do you guys think it is reflecting reality? I mean... how about that one dude still waiting for AOR? Is this real? Or is this a person who isn't updating its process? How about those 16 people who never got their status changes to "In Process"? Do you think...

    Applying for Passport: who can be a "Reference"?

    Yes, I am aware of that. I was trying to avoid that. I don't have my current job for long enough, and i did not leave the last one on the "best terms", if you know what I mean. I will seek some good old friends.

    Applying for Passport: who can be a "Reference"?

    Well, I did not call them yet, but I found something in this website: http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/italy-italie/consular_services_consulaires/passport-passeport.aspx?lang=eng Section 8 – References — a reminder that you cannot use members of your or your spouse's family as references...
