Hello, I'm applying for the PR card renewal. I have maintained my Canadian address throughout 5 years (that is, paid rent, utility bills, taxes, and so on). However, during COVID lockdown, I ended up staying outside of Canada for 8 months due to family reasons. I put down those 8 months into my...

My PR card is about to expire in 8 months. I would like to apply for a renewal now because I know it currently takes a long time to receive the new card. However, I will need to travel outside of Canada in about 3-4 months. In case, the processing of the new PR card takes longer than that, my...

I left Canada last year and planned to come back within a few months. Therefore, I did not apply for extended absence. However, the circumstances are such that I had to extend my stay and I now realized that over the last 12 months, I was in Ontario less than the the required minimum of 153...

I wonder if anyone might help me with this. I had sent in my citizenship application & supporting documentation and received AOR, and after receiving AOR, I went to my home country and stayed there for more than 183 days. Do I need police clearance from my home country for the period of time...

Could anyone please advise? I am currently outside of Canada until March-April. My home & mailing address is in Canada, and if I receive the online test invite, I will travel back immediately. So, the question is: Do I have to let CIC know? I am worried this might unnecessarily slow down my...

I apologize if this question was asked before. I applied for citizenship and received an AOR with a home address in Canada. Now I am going away for at least 6 months. I don't have a home address in Canada anymore because I was renting an apartment. For the time I am away, I will use my Canadian...

Advice needed. I just received my AOR this week, I gave notice to my landlord, and plan to be away from Canada until July. I am using my Canadian friend's address as my mailing address. I don't really think I will receive the invitation for the test any time soon. However, in an unlikely...

I submitted my application a few months ago, no AOR yet, and now due to some circumstances, I will be moving out and going away for a few months. I am worried that CIC might return my application to my old address (which I would have no access to), and I know their mail is not being forwarded...

My question is to those people who have received their AOR in the past few months (during CO-VID). Have you received AORs by e-mail or regular post? If by post, did the envelope have the stamp "Do not forward"? on it. Thank you so much.
