Thank you It is very helpful.

I need a consultation session to decide if my parents should re-apply for the new PR or appeal to reinstate the expired PR. Bellissimo and Matkowsky charge the same amount of consultation fee. Which one should I go to. I guess most law firm will recommand appeal because they can charge more...

I need to have a consulation session with a lawyer in GTA regarding my parents PR status. Any recommendation? Thanks you. area

Thanks Scylla. They didn't renounce the PR nor it was revoked. I am wondering if they can get the PRTD and return to Ontario, are they able to renew their Health Cards. If not, it is probably better to re-apply for the PR.

My parents lived in Canada for about 600 days after they landed. They didn't return during the pandemic. I am their only child. Can I apply for reinstatment of their PR status based on the humanitarian and compassionate reason? Do they need to be physically in Canada during the petition...

My parents need to return to Canada in October to meet the 730 days residency obligation. It is risky to travel right now. Is there new policy on residency during the pandemic time? Can they request extension? Thank you.

I took test on June 8th. DM on June 11th. Received oath invitation on July 18th.

Thank you for the clarification.

They checked the stamps one by one. Are they going to do it again during the ceremony? The letter looks standard.

I got a letter of invitation to the oath ceremony at Scarborough Center. It says bring 'all passport and travel documents, in your possession(current and expire)'. Not quite understand the reasons under this requirement.

How much do they charge? I was told $100 for each language.

I didn't make it up. I contacted Access Alliance Language Services. They referred me to a translation company. It asked for $100 for each language as the base. Each stamp will cost $15-$20 more. I have around 30 stamps in 7 different languages. I also contact COSTI, they didn't give me a...

I heard a lot of cases that people got away without translation. It makes me think that they might not so rigorous on stamps if I can prove my residency. It doesn't hurt to try particularly if translation causes me fortune. Time is not an issue.

I don't mind to translate those stamps myself. The problem is the government wants certifiied translation. If I hire a professional agency, it can easily cost 1000 dollars. It is the government discriminate against poor people. I can ask my fiend to do the translation. He doesn't have Spanish...

No, talked to Straker and they don't normally provide stamp translation service. I have no choice but hire Mr. Cohen.

What they need is to prove residency. I can prove my residency without providing stamp translation. If they insist, maybe I can bring the government to court.

Thanks.

Rather than spend a fortune to translate those stamps (can be well over $500), can I just use my employer letter, my tax return and pay stubs to prove my residency? It is stupid to request stamp translation. Some stamps only have code and cannot be translated, for instance Brazil stamp. Most...

I have about 36 stamps in Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and Russian. I have difficulty finding a company can handle all those languages. Any recommendation? Thanks. Maybe I should just leave them untranslated until CIC asks.
