Hello. Based on the changes in law from C-24, I applied for a proof of citizenship paper. Mailed it in regular US mail in Mid March. Did not send it via courier. ...in hindsight a mistake as I have no idea if CIC received it.
What are the next steps and how do I know if it has even been received? For background..my father was born in Canada 1920ish and moved away, became an American...or not..not clear..in about 1934. I was born after 1947 in the USA and believe I am now a citizen due to the changes in law from C-24. But....how do I track my application?? Does CIC send out a letter saying they hit it? How long does that take? Thank you!!!
