If you have landed in 2013, then your PR is more recent. You should include ONLY biographical pages of all passports since you got your PR. Take your translated stamps when you call you for test/interview, they might as you for that at that time.

First thanks for taking the time to reply,
and sure your right that usually you should include ONLY biographical pages of all passports since you got your PR but i also read on other threads many people, their application where returned for not covering the 4/ 6 rule. So it depends on the officer whose reviewing your file
About the stamps, Me and my children are living in Canada while my husband still living and working in Saudi Arabia, and that by itself leaves the officer with lots of doubts especially after the fuss of passports of convenience ,that's why i decided to enclose the stamp translations and the travel history of the said country as a supporting documents hoping in way to be as much transparent as i can and maybe avoid an RQ ,

I don't thing there is any harm in attaching all stamps, I hope all the best for you

How long does it take to get the date for Citizenship exam from the date one applies for citizenship? I am asking this to take preparation for test. Could anyone answer this please?

2nd question: What documents should I provide for my son's identity. My elder son is 13 years and younger one is 6 years. Thanks in advance.

June applicants I need your help here please. Now, I should apply for citizenship soon after meeting all requirements, but I have a problem; now my passport from back home expired in April and I didn't renew it. Say I want to submit my application in August, there will be a 4-month gab and they need explanation for that! would it be a big problem for me ?

It is hard to answer your first question, but hope that it will take 3-5 months, so start preparing for your test bit by bit from the first day you submit your application.

In my daughter case, I've submitted her Health card and I asked the school to provide me with Index report card that includes her photo, this is in Ontario Carleton District School Board (OCDSB)

This is what I wrote based on recommendations from one of the immigrant services worker:

My passport with number xxxx expired on xxxxxx, I did not renew it because I had no plans to travel outside Canada. However, later-on I obtained a new passport with number xxxxx on date xxxxxxx. During this gap, I had no valid passport or travel document whatsoever.

Seeking suggestion on child’s personal identification.

As per the Guide, two piece of identification required and one of them must have a photo.

I have health card but no photograph.
School record doesn't have photo and it doesn't show the middle name.

What are the other options? Please advise.
