Application for Canadian Citizenship - A Comprehensive Guide

Wtf IRCC man! I sent out on 21st june and until then I did not see this update. So it cannot be true that they updated on 16th June 2021.
What's gonna happen now? Is there a way we can submit through web form?

No one can say for certain what will happen to us at this point . We really have to wait and see.
I personally don’t see the value of sending a webform to them in a panic before we even know what our file # is . Pretty annoying situation to be in but what can we do except wait and see what happens.

Likely not and I hope it doesn't get returned. The page update date says 16th June but I don't know when this was actually updated.

I hope that you and others who applied around that time come out of this unscathed.

I really hope so. The fact that I was about to submit all the pages in first place and then I sticked to just sending out bio pages based on feedback.

I know the pain of returned application as I had experienced before during PR process.
Hoping for the best

Hi folks,
Regarding question #11, in case of unemployment period , what do I write in the employer field? Please note i have already put "unemployed" under the occupation field and I couldn't validate the application by keeping this field blank.Thanks

Thanks Raj for your quick response. I have another question about the recent update for colour copies of passport ,should I make it for all pages even they are blank and is it okay to print them out on both sides ?

All pages of the passport, yes. Printing on both sides is eco-friendly and I hope IRCC will appreciate that. Just make sure the pages are clearly visible on both sides.

For people applying online who have not submitted: note that there is a "Report a problem or mistake on this page" link at the bottom of each page. Please use it to report errors or information that needs to be updated. If enough people submit, they might update the application so that people don't have to keep refreshing multiple sources to get the latest information. I have reported the following:

• this update asking for all pages of the passport (online application still asks only for bio pages)
• the From date in the physical presence section automatically calculating to a day earlier than the From date on the physical presence calculator
• contact information page: 1/2 in street number not accepted
• Upload more documents page: Name of photographer or business field not accepting numbers in the name

I used physical presence calculator then in application is required to enter (TO date) from calculator . Then on application it automatically put the (FROM date) but there’s one day difference in (FROM date) between calculator and application… is that ok ?

In personal/work history the maximum entries are 15 the PDF is not allowing me to add more. What to do if I need more space ?
Thanks.

@rajkamalmohanram

Well in that case, that particular page and add more entries and attach it to your application. Write a letter of explanation and let the officer know that you've attached an extra page because you did not have space.

 

[Momo2010]

Thanks for your reply.
You mean create more entries on a table on Word document and attach it ?

@rajkamalmohanram

Some people have done that but what I meant was print an extra copy of that particular page only with the additional rows you need and then add it to your application.

 

[Momo2010]

So that means if I printed that page . I can fill it by hand writing?
Or fill it on PDF print it then erase and fill it again ?

On question 13… I mentioned my country of nationality. Do I have to mention also any country I had temporary resident status in as a worker? And do I have to mention my schengen visa trips to Europe as a visitor?
because in the status there are options for worker and visitor ..
Please advise @rajkamalmohanram
