    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    May I ask one more question please? When I extended my visitor status, I applied just 2 weeks before it expired, I had a confirmation that they recieved the application but it took them 3 months to process it and only then they extended my stay. The time spent between the expiration of the first...

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    Thank you so much! I didn't think about attaching my extended visitor record papers and you are absolutely right! Now that I'm fully confident that I'm safe to apply, I will make an organized all-in-one application where everything is very clear! I really really appreciate you and everyone else...

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

But since you guys are wondering, like i said I always had a lawful status, here's how: I came in as a visitor for 6 months, then since i was with my spouse i...

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    Oh wait a min, what's the difference? I was a visiting tourist wasn't I? i originally came here for tourism purposes, I never intended to stay here. Since I'm visa exempt, I simply entered Canada the first time. How can i figure out whether i was a tourist or a visitor?

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    I have a very clean record in Canada and in my whole past in general. So being unlawful is irrelevant. So based on the fact that i was a tourist and it counts, and based on the tax thing people explained up there I believe I can apply with no risk of getting the application returned??

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    Well this is how I'm 95% sure that it does count (Now I'm quoting from the government website): _____________________________________ Q2: How is the physical presence requirement for citizenship calculated? A2: Only the five (5) years preceding the date of your application is considered your...

    Citizenship Eligibility Condition: 3-years of Tax return

    According to According to the online presence calculator it counted each day of me being a tourist as half a day. Based on this, on October 15th I will have stayed here for a total of 1,110 days (PR days + 0.5 * Tourism days). Why would it not count as half a day? I'm sure the presence...

    Separation and deportation

    I just feel bad about taking it, him not working all this time made me have to work extra time to afford rent for us and food for him to eat. Going through this and his immigration threats during this whole time made me more independent. By taking welfare i'll admit to myself that i'm not...
