Citizenship Application and Documents to Attach

[MR Stephen Harper]

Hi All Senior Members on this Forum:

My wife came to Canada on July 01, 2011 and our son born here in November, 2012. My Son got his Canadian Passport in December, 2012. Then, we all family(Myself, Wife, 3-year Daughter, Son) visited to Pakistan from February, 2013 - April, 2013.

My questions are that:

1. Can my wife apply for Citizenship on July 02, 2014 and include the days which we spent outside Canada due to travelled/stayed with Canadian born Son? OR Should wait 3-months more to apply?



2. Which documents/reports will speed up case, e.g. CBSA, FOSS, Tax Returns, any other etc.? Should we attach with application?

Advance thanks.

Ok, so here's a new question ..
At the time of applying for Canadian citizenship, is it absolutely imperative to have your current passport valid, i.e. unexpired ..?
If you never had any plans of leaving Canada for more than couple of weeks here and there in between ... and then stayed in Canada, until it expired ..

I'd like to hear from all of you who recently applied, coz you are currently going through this process ..

Thanks ..

Please, no cliche answers like 'just get it renewed' ..
