No, I did not. It wasn't generating any income (I wasn't renting it out or anything) and I wasn't sure my family would allow me to sell it, so I did not declare it anywhere.

Hello All, I have been a PR for several years now. I had an apartment back in my home country that I wasn't able to sell before coming to Canada. The apartment has just been sitting there, and has not been generating any income for me. I have now finally been able to sell it for...

Hello All, I have a question for you. For the citizenship test and interview, should you have all non-English entry/exit passport stamps translated? The letter we received from IRCC telling us to come for the test/interview did not say anything about translating the stamps. Should we do...

Hello All, There are a whole bunch of websites that provide free citizenship exam practice tests. I have tried a handful of them and I've found that some of them are really different in the content of the exams that they have. I was looking here on the forum for threads where...

Dear All, My wife and I applied for citizenship together to Winnipeg office. We have now been called for the test and an interview to review the originals of the documents that we submitted copies of in our application. I have a question: will me wife and I be interviewed...

Dear All, I applied for citizenship in August under the 4-year physical presence requirement, after having been in Canada for four contiguous years, with no travel outside Canada. Last week, I received a request for fingerprints. What do you think this indicates? Is everyone asked for...

Several people have said the 3/5 rule will be implemented in the Fall. Is this an expectation or was there a government announcement or something to that effect? Thanks, Snoopy

The link you provided refers to bill C-6. That bill hasn't passed the Senate yet. I was told that the law changed in 2015 changing things so that, on a trip, the day you depart and the day you return can be counted as residence days. Is that accurate or false? Thanks, Snoopy

Dear All, I've been told that the law changed in 2015 so that now if someone travels outside Canada on, for example, June 10, and returns on June 15, then he can count both June 10 and June 15 as days present in Canada for purposes of the four-year residence requirement necessary for...

Hello All, I have a somewhat specific question. To apply for Canadian citizenship, a PR must include a photocopy of biographical pages of passports. If the biographical page is not in English, then it must be translated. The biographical page for the Egyptian passport has all...
