Thank God it can be taken away. If you want to cheat the system or get involved in terrorrist acts, you don't have a place in Canada.

Don't forget that this new Law is reality now, because of all those cheaters in the past. Don't blame the government.

Blame the people with the F*cked up minds.

80% students come here just to get PR and citizenship not for just study. Mostly filled cases here just by fraud.

The new Law will Fix a lot of problems. Only those who were not genuine applicants have reasons to complain.

We don't want cheaters and criminals.

People move to Canada originally with the intention to settle and remain here, however the reality is the job market sucks. Even for those already employed in Canada in professional jobs they can still find better pay and better chances to grow in a healthier economy. So the new rule won't stop them from leaving and working abroad, it will just delay them 1 more year.

Hello,

In a recent link on gc.ca, a comparison is given between new and old rules:
http://news.gc.ca/web/article-en.do?nid=985219

Regarding the time as a non-permanent resident (non-PR), It says "Eliminates use of time spent in Canada as a non-permanent resident (non-PR) for most applicants". My question is about word "most". I think it is something new. Does anyone know if there are any exemptions?

Thanks

As always, if you're in the army, working for the government, etc. Anyways, forget it, you are not in these exceptions....

The old rules were horrible for people who travel a lot. Thanks to The administrative changes due to the new Law now it is unlikely an application to be on a pile without being opened for years due to the backlog.
The overall time from applying to the actual grant of citizenship will be almost the same compared to now.

Nobody likes to be in the backlog, the new system will fix all the mess from the old rules.

I sent my package today to stay in the old rules. I became eligible (1095 days) on 7th June. Under the new rules, I would be eligible in August 2017 due to pre-PR time not counting.

Am I sure to get an RQ ? And do you guys think I will save some time by applying under the old rules ?

Thanks !
