    GTA Processing Offices

    I believe it is just the Scarborough and Mississauga offices. If you change city, it would not impact where your application is processed. Even distribution between these two offices is not purely based on your address. They often transfer applications due to workload.

    August 2018 Application

    No you don't need to notarize them. They will want to see the originals at the interview though.

    Urgent Processing - would this be a valid reason?

    Certainly not a valid reason for urgent processing. Apply regularly, if you're called for test/interview during your absence, you can ask for that to be rescheduled. Good luck and best wishes.

    july 2018, Citizen Application.

    If the spreadsheet is to be trusted, no one has received a test invite in June or July. Is that so? Or is the spreadsheet out of date?

    No income as PR for my whole time in Canada will this be an issue?

    Income plays no role in your citizenship application. The only difference that I can see employment could make is proving your physical presence if that is ever questioned. But A) That's rare, B) From what I read on this forum, lack of employment is not a trigger for residency questionnaire.

    CBSA records delay processing?

    " When this option is available, requesting the report directly from the CBSA will cause a significant delay to your application process." It's not clear whether this refers to citizenship application, or the travel history report application.

    include newborn to PR

    You absolutely need to inform the IRCC of the new-born. If not, you will have NO WAY of sponsoring your new born in the future. Your expiry date of medical is irrelevant and should not affect your decision in any way.

    Interfaith marriage

    1. Absolutely not. No one asks about your faith here. 2. NO. Some people even get married after applying and getting PPR and before landing. The key fact is if you get married (or have new born children) any time before LANDING, you have to inform IRCC. That's it. 3. Marriage certificate will...

    Express Entry in Quebec applying for Citizenship

    From what I've heard on this forum, it's a perfectly valid reason to move to a different province for employment. It won't cause any issues with your citizenship application. You may be asked a question during interview, but your explanation is more than enough. Good luck.

    Is it safe to travel?

    Once you sign and submit your application, you technically only need to maintain your PR residency obligations. Therefore, travelling, specially short-term as yours is absolutely fine. The only risk is the getting a test date or oath date while you're away. You can however reschedule test/oath...

    Applying for Canadian Citizenship with Withdrawn Charges through Diversion Program

    I do recommend you seek advice through an immigration lawyer and not on this forum as this is too technical and repercussions of any mistakes can be very high.

    IRCC is slower compare to 2018. WHY.......................

    It does look slower than right after rules changed. I think they ramped -p their resources anticipating a lot more applicants in Oct, Nov 2017. But after the sudden wave of applicants subsided, they re-allocated resources to other immigration streams. Thus less agents working on citizenship...

    Original Entry Date on CoPR not corrected

    Honestly, many IRCC agents are not nearly as knowledgeable as people on this forum!

    Application docs received by Brian in Sydney

    It REALLY doesn't matter. Don't even think about going that route (of obsession). Just chill. It's going to be a long wait.

    Need a better definition of gaps in citizenship application form

    1) This is just fine: e.g. july,2017- july, 2018 address 1 aug, 2018- jpresent address 2 2) Since you left the previous job before taking the vacation, you were essentially unemployed in between jobs. So I would go with this: something-july,2018 job1 july,2018-july,2018 unemployed...
