No, I did not have my Canadian Passport at the time of surrender application submission. So, I just send an attestation stating that I do not have a Canadian/Foreign Passport for this application. Make sure you sign and date it. For Citizenship Certificate, I sent a self attested photocopy of...

Hi @whimsical , No, just include the demand draft for Surrender application i.e., $129.40 You can pay and schedule for application pick-up/drop-off using the following link. https://www.blsindia-canada.com/toronto-jurisdiction/postalbls.php No need to send BLS the payment for postal...

Thanks for sharing your experience, @djrobinn . I ended up using BLS Postal Pick-up/Drop-off service. Total cost of this service is $64.00. If I was to drive to Brampton location, it would have been an hour drive each way. So worth spending this amount for both pick-up and drop-off service...

Anyone trying to contact IRCC, follow these instructions. "I use this number 1-888-242-2100 After entering your UCI and confirming it. You can press 340 without waiting for the message after one or two trials, it will let you through " Quoting directly from another message in this thread...

1) No, no need to mention it. 2) my current company name is 30 characters long. Had no issues entering it using Adobe. You can handwrite it as well. I handwrote my Citizenship Certificate number on a partially Adobe filled application. There were no issues during submission at Service Canada...

Just an FYI for people waiting for Citizenship Certificate after Oath. I completed my virtual Oath Ceremony on 12-October-2022 but my online tracker still shows Oath in-progress. And yesterday, I received my Citizenship Certificate in mail (22 days after Oath ceremony). So, it's not necessary...

Hello, I recently acquired Canadian Citizenship and have applied for Canadian Passport today. I have not surrendered my Indian Citizenship yet. If I travel to India using 2 passports (Canadian and Indian - both valid), what are the risks involved? I am planning to go to visit my parents in Feb...

Appreciate the update, @sid8tive :)

You can attend the oath ceremony without PR card, i.e., if its lost, stolen, or damaged. You will have to send completed Solemn Declaration Form to the oath email address. Please read below statement. I have copied it directly from my Notice to Appear for oath ceremony. If your Permanent...

Hello all, received the Notice to Appear today via email. Scheduled for video oath ceremony on October 12th. Email address from which I received this notice (for anyone who is interested to know) : DN MB SK CIT Ceremonies / Ceremonies CIT MB SK RN (IRCC)...

I suggest you contact IRCC using webform first. Pretty sure that the respond will be very generalized e.g., standard processing time is 27 months. If you are looking for citizenship asap, then contact your local MP re: delays and the stress this wait if causing you. They will inquire about your...

Nope, never. Didn't even use IRCC helpline or webform. Luckily, all 4 applications (1 study permit, 2 work permits, and 1 PR) were processed without any issues and in an acceptable time period. Very close to my 5th application as well (citizenship, processing time will be around 1 year and 18...

Well, as you specified above, we only have 2 options - Call and Webform. Worst case scenario, if you don't get email from IRCC, contact your local MP for assistance. I don't know what MP can do except inquire regarding the delay. Also, we should be glad that we are almost at the end of the...

Hi @jbourne, IRCC will send the Oath instructions 1-2 weeks prior to the scheduled oath date. If you don't receive an instructions email by October 19th, contact IRCC right away to ensure you don't miss the appointment for oath. I am scheduled for Oath on October 12th and still awaiting...

Apologies, I presumed you applied using paper based application. Also, I didn't know IRCC was accepting online applications for Spousal Sponsorship process. My bad. Given the new information, I would suggest reaching out to IRCC via WebForm for assistance.

CPC Mississauga, as above message states, only processes Inland Spousal Sponsorship application. Nothing you can do other than sending it to the correct address. Just resend your Outland application to following address. Mailing address CPC Sydney PO Box 9500 Sydney NS B1P 0H5 Courier address...

Usually I refrain on commenting on this but I have to because I have seen abuse being inflicted onto men by women. Couple of my friends have gone through the same. Kind individuals who were suffering quietly because in our society men are always considered to be wrong. Being a woman doesn't...

Congrats! As per IRCC website, they will send us the Oath instructions 1-2 weeks prior to the scheduled oath date. If you don't receive an instructions email by October 18, contact IRCC right away to ensure you don't miss the appointment for oath.

Finally, I have been scheduled for Citizenship Oath Ceremony on October 12, 2022. Awaiting email instructions from IRCC. Please see my signatures for details.

Because you both applied together, IRCC might be considering her as a Primary Applicant while you are a secondary applicant. I have read somewhere in one of the forums that Primary Account gets regular updates while the other stays the same. And once its Oath is complete, status gets updated on...
