    Kitchener Citizenship Application

    They didn't tell us there was no judge. When we had the interview after taking the test it was really brief. They took a quick look at our passports and landing documents and told us we could expect the invitation to the oath ceremony in 1-3 months. I hope you get yours soon.

    OHIP records delay

    When I got my RQ I didn't even know you could get records directly from OHIP. I just called my doctor's office and asked them to write a letter stating the dates on which I had been seen by the doctor. I did the same for my dentist, eye doctor, chiropractor and the local hospital where I had...

    CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP TIMELINE TABLE (COAST TO COAST)

    Actually, we haven't gotten our voter information cards yet, so yesterday we went to our local early polling place and they did not have us in the registry. We registered and voted right then and there. It was very exciting and the little old ladies running the polling location seemed really...

    Can somebody share the experience of Oath ceremony day?

    We took our oaths last month. Our ceremony was scheduled for 9:30 in the morning and we arrived at 9:00. We weren't quite the first ones there, but almost. We lined up outside the door to the ceremony room and were checked in. They had a clipboard with everyone's name on it. We passed in...

    Do I have to take my kids for test and/or interview?

    Any child who was under 18 at the time you applied does not have to take the test or be interviewed. Any child currently over the age of 14 must take the citizenship oath. My kids are 16 and 20 and we just took our oaths last month. Even though my daughter is 20, she was only 17 when we...

    How to prepare for test and interview?

    Read the book, then take the online practice tests over and over until you can answer all the questions correctly. The questions on the actual test are very much like the questions on the practice test.

    Many Day Trips to the USA (Share your experience)

    I also had many day trips to the States, mostly for shopping. I did get a RQ. I don't think the day trips had as much to do with it as the fact that I'm a stay-at-home mom (no employment records) and our house and utilities are in my husband's name. I requested a record of all my border...

    Permanent Residence doesn't expire, just the card expires. You should apply for card renewal as well as applying for citizenship. My kids were homeschooled, so had no school records to submit with our citizenship applications. We went to a lawyer and swore out statutory declarations stating...
