Hi
I am about to file my Citizenship Application but it has an option asking if i had filed taxes for 2024.

As 2025 just started so do i need to wait until i file my taxes or just simply put NO?

Any leads would be appreciated as i am done with my application and just waiting on this to submit.

Thankyou in Advance.

You can say No and file your returns as you normally do. IRCC will check with CRA if needed.

Not needed as this happens every year for applicants applying during the initial months.

Hi, I am about to file my application and have the following questions. Thanks in advance for the help!

'Residence and Tax' -> 'Immigration and Citizenship' section
1. Should I add all the previous visitor visas and student visa details in this section? I did add my previous US student and current B1/B2 visa information but there are many other visitors visas such as Schengen, Japan, China and other countries I have had on my passport. Should I be adding all of them too?

'Residence and Tax' -> 'Travel documents or Passports' section
1. Here, I added only my passport information. Should I be adding the visas information here?

1. Some add only citizenship and PR. Others add all. You have to decide for yourself as both have worked in the past.
2. Only passport
