Citizenship Applications after Bill C-6

[Joshua1]

Many websites say you cannot take your children

Hi,

Do you have any template on what to write to the MP?

I'm from Oct 16th and after 3 unsuccessful Webforms I think is time to try something different.

I don't want to send a second application as I still think that it's sitting somewhere in Sydney. I can't believe that so many applications got lost.

Thank you,

I wrote simple email to MP, on "contact us" section on his website. He replied within 4 hours. He sent a form to fill. That form was specially designed for immigration purposes.

This might be useful for some people (applications for children). I'm not sure if there an updated version.

Status:
Decision
If IRCC determines your child meets all the requirements for citizenship, if the child is under 14 years of age, you will receive:

• A request for you to provide your child’s original Record of Landing (IMM 1000) and Permanent Resident Card.
• Once these documents are received by IRCC, the citizenship certificate as well as the updated IMM 1000 will be sent by mail.

Note: If the child is 14 years of age or older or turns 14 during processing of the application and meets all the requirements for citizenship, the IRCC office notifies your child in writing of the time and place of the citizenship ceremony.

• What your child will receive:
  
  • Notification to appear to take the oath of citizenship
  • Certificate of Canadian Citizenship received at the ceremony after taking the oath of citizenship.
  The ceremony notice will indicate that your child must bring to the ceremony their original Record of Landing (IMM 1000) and Permanent Resident Card, if they have one.

Hello, for people who received the test invite - can you provide a list of documents they have asked you to bring along?

Thank you, I sent already an email describing the whole situation. I'll see if they send me a form to fill.

So we just need to take the items for which we provided photocopies right? Or do we have to take copies of the application, physical presence calculator etc.

Thank you so much for your previous response.

Well, to be safe, when the time comes I'm going to take all originals including my COPR, all expired and new passports, PR card, driver's license, health card, language proof, as well as the copy of my application that I made prior to sending it off.

Although overkill, I have also already prepared a file with all my flight tickets, boarding passes, address proofs, I94 records, NOAs in preparation for an RQ, should I get one. I will take this file along as well.

The key is to have low expectations. Expect your application to take the full 12 months before you become a Citizen. If sooner, it's bonus. That's what I'm doing. GTA is probably worse than Montreal. I won't be surprised if my Oath is next year.
