I am sure this topic has been discussed many times before. However I am confused by 2 CIC call center agents as they told me difference answers. Just thought to confirm with you guys here.

I just start gathering my citizenship application package now, I am not in pre-interview stage just to be clear. In the guide, it only asks for copy of the biographical pages of passport, but I have seen many ppl here mentioned submit copies of all passport pages with entry/exist stamps (even blank pages), and also provide translations of those pages if they are non-english. I spoke with 2 CIC agents, both of them said follow the guide and don't need to provide translation. However, one of them said I do need to submit stamps pages, the other said just the biographical pages, stamps pages may only required after the interview. Who is right? It is easy enough for me to submit copies of all pages, but translation may take longer. In this case, should I also provide translations as well?

Can someone confirm from your experience?

Thanks!

Hi,

Send whatever the guide says, in this case only the copies of the biographical pages.

Verify that you comply with the Checklist included in the application, no more, no less...


Cheers,

Wilbur

Thank you Wilbur for your quick response!

I assume marriage certificate is also not required for the citizenship application as it is not mentioned in the guide?

Marriage certificate are not required as this is not a case of PR sponsorship. This is for Canadian citizenship. Martial status has no bearing on qualification. It's the physical days spent inside Canada that drive the qualification.
