    Who can win federal Election, which party is good immigration

    At any rate, there are many factors other than processing time that are important to consider when it comes to IRCC and politics. I recommend this article to check out some of them. https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/june-2019/citizenship-policy-challenges-the-next-government-will-face/

    Who can win federal Election, which party is good immigration

    As far as I am aware, the Liberal government was responsible for streamlining the citizenship application in October 2017 and shortening the processing to 12 months. Traditionally, Conservatives do not seem to be the greatest fans of us immigrants :p

    Flying within canada

    Hey! I am not sure about the restoration of status part of your question, but I recently flew from Toronto to BC and back and they only asked for my driver's licence (not even my PR card). Hope this helps?

    Hmm, I would maybe suggest submitting a webform through https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx however from what I hear the response time isn't great there either. Alternatively, maybe give them a call?

    Did you order it online? I would say it took about a month or so to arrive after I ordered a hard copy. Got it from here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals.html#ordering

    Urgent Processing - would this be a valid reason?

    On a similar note (sorry for hijacking this thread btw) - it says on the CIC website that you can apply for urgent processing if you apply for a job that requires Canadian citizenship. Does this perhaps mean that you have to be offered a job that requires citizenship, or that just applying for...
