C-6 Citizenship Applications, Frequently Asked Questions

[To89]

Question 10(a): The address where you sleep
Question 11: The address where you work. That is most likely a different address (unless you work from home)

Hi Spyfy,

I called IRCC yesterday and i asked the agent this very question. She told me since its asking where were YOU located during that time then you need to write your address. It didn't make sense to me till i talked to an agent in one of the welcome centres today and she told me maybe they are asking that because you could be taking an online course and be outside of Canada but the school is in Canada or you could be working for a Canadian company which is located in Canada and you are working for that company abroad. I will call IRCC again just to make sure i was given the correct information regarding this section 11.

I actually wanted to know if anyone knows if we have to send an attendance letter or a letter to confirm we were student from the school we attended in Canada?

No ray.... 2016 to 2012 in 5 rows there . 2017 not required.

So do I list all of them. My status was as follows 2012 : visitor a few months, didn't file because I didn't have to 2013: same but more days in Canada than 2012. 2014: More time in Canada than not but no money was earned and hubby's accountant listed me as a spouse but I wasn't required to file. 2015: landed in February so that taxation year I did file as required. So I was a visitor but not liable for taxes, at least that's what the accountant said. I was on a VR. If I have missed something, or done it wrong, the help is appreciated.

Well as always: I am not perfect and if the call centre people say to fill it one way, fill it that way.

But you don't need attendance letters etc. See document checklist.

Yes you list all five years. tick "required to file" and "filed" as appropriate. Seems you know exactly what to tick.

I did like what teh agent told you. Some ppl commute fro Mississauga to Toronto Iwhy would they care about Toronto? They want to compare your address in Q10a, Q11 and the taxes you filled.

Thanks, I was just second guessing myself. Some of these are really confusing and I was afraid I'd mess up.

Totally understandable. As we learned over the last days, IRCC themselves gets confused about their rules

You've been fantastic. You were awesome during my PR process too. But yeah, it seems like they managed to even confuse themselves. I'm just shocked since the counter says I can apply now with all the days I have in as a visitor but before it said February 2019!!! It's a lot to take in.

Thank you sir

He deserved the best. He helped me during my PR and for getting PCC before C6

Yes, you don't need those other pages.

Don't get distracted by the kind of stuff people want to put in their application. Sometimes I feel there are people in this forum that would actually put themselves in the envelope if only it were big enough.

This is just too funny lol!!!!
