Clarification on Guarantor

[koxruz]

Background: I submitted for a Citizenship application within Canada and I have attended the Ceremony. Currently waiting for the certificate so I can apply for the passport.

Need some clarification about the guarantor.

This section says the guarantor has to be a Citizen but the Guarantor declaration form itself doesn't mention that as a requirement. In fact the form has an occupation as a requirement which the section doesn't.

What am I misunderstanding?

He needs to be a Canadian citizen, cuz there is a passport number in the section. it does not make sense to get a guarantee from a citizen in another country.

It’s the curious case of overthinking.

There's no passport number section in the declaration form. Not sure what you're referring to. There's only a registration number. Plus the declaration form doesn't specify the guarantor to be a citizen hence the confusion

So you're First Nation then I assume if you're applying for Indian Status......

Wrong form.
The guarantor form for passport application is IN the passport application. You might want to take your time and read the correct form first.

I believe OP didn't use his/her favorite search engine. or just lazy.

Or the instructions:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ocuments-references-guarantors.html#in-canada

"Your guarantor must...
... be a Canadian citizen 18 years of age or older"

Note, I don't believe this specific requirement for guarantor applies if one applies OUTSIDE Canada. If there's any gap or difference in forms for passport #, it could be because of this distinction. But I'm too lazy to look up the forms since the instructions are so clear.
