Interesting how the information can differ. Tbh, I don’t really care about Nexus vs MPC as the wait time is similar. It’s more about having access to the Nexus security line. When traveling internationally, you don’t even have to take your laptop out which is convenient. Traveling to the US, you...

Hi, just wanted to share how the update of citizenship works for the Nexus card. My Nexus was previously connected to my Canadian PR card and my other passport. Going online, it did not look like I was able to add another citizenship, so I went to Pearson airport and did a walk-in on a Saturday...

Just coming back here to share my experience, hoping it can help someone else specifically in Toronto. I received the invite to the oath ceremony, and it was in fact, in person. The default option for in person ceremonies is the printed citizenship certificate and you will be handed it during...

Hi, I was just asked by someone whose daughter arrived to start studying here where to apply for the SIN. I answered city hall, since that’s where I obtained mine when I originally arrived on a work permit. I realize this is 15 years ago and things may have changed. When checking on the Service...

Mistake made on the oath letter, it was 25072024. Just want to make it clear that the time between letter and oath date was not 7 weeks.

Very happy to report that after about 5 weeks from the last status update, the tracker is now showing that the oath date has been scheduled for mid August. I haven't received the actual invite yet but hope to get it in the next couple of days. Assuming that it will be virtual. This will give me...

Hi, March applicant here and this all went much faster than expected. Currently waiting for "decision made" and the oath ceremony invite so presumably this is only a couple of weeks away at this point. My concern is the timing of it all as I have upcoming out-of-country travel of about 2 weeks...

Quick update: AOR Apr 3

I converted my Global Entry status to NEXUS a couple of years ago when I became a PR. It was straightforward with just attending an interview at the office at Pearson airport. My card expires in August of this year and I applied for renewal a couple of weeks ago. Due to the backlog, they...

Thank you for all the effort of summarising and putting it in here, much appreciated. Apologies if this question has been asked before but is there any app that is recommended? I had a look at the App store and am not sure which one is legit / any good. Would be good to practice some questions...

Hi, thank you for this helpful post, I just renewed my PR card for the second time and want to apply for citizenship in the next 2 years. I have a question regarding the proof that demonstrates adequate knowledge of English. The below applies to me. My last test is from when I first started the...

Mine was very quick. Application received end of October. Email confirming to start processing received mid December. Just arrived back in Canada and the new card was already in the mail. In terms of providing information on trips abroad/days of residence inside of Canada, I used a print out of...

Hi, My application for PR card renewal was sent in October. Today I received an email confirming that it was received end of October. I understand they have started processing now, will hopefully know more in a month or two. Early November applicants, you should get your confirmation of receipt...

Hi, I've been a permanent resident since March 2014 and met my residence obligation (less than 300 days outside of Canada over the last 5 years). My PR card expires in June 2018. I recently completed my renewal application and mailed it. Canada Post tracking tells me it was delivered 29th...
