Question:

I submitted my application on March 27 and they already received it on March 29.

About that tax filing, I have not filed my tax from 2018 when I submitted my application so I put "no" under 2018 tax filed column. But I filed all my taxes from 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and put "yes" under all the tax file columns of those 4 years. I became Permanent Resident in October 2016. Between 2014 to October 2016 I was under Post Graduate Work Permit.

Is this okay? The 3 years doesn't have to be the last 3 years right?
Hi Julian. In the section "Make sure you are eligible", it states this point:
  • if required to do so, have filed personal income taxes for at least 3 years within the 5 year period
So, you are right. It does not have to be the last 3 years. It has to be 3 years within the last 5 years prior to the day you apply.

You could not do anything , since you have not filed it .
I already submitted my citizenship application before filing my 2018 tax though.

I already filed my 2018 tax now, but I did it after I submitted my citizenship application.

However all my tax from 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were all filed.

Thanks! So my citizenship application should have no problem right?

Hello. Could someone confirm what your delivery status showed after your application was delivered to the case processing centre by UPS? For me, it just shows delivered to Sydney, CA, and signed by "DAN".

Same. Yea, Dan is a known name in this forum. He usually signs the packages (amongst others)

I just realized my entry stamp to a foreign country is not correct, it shows 02 Jan, 2018, instead of 02 Feb, 2018. Does anyone know what should I do? Should I wait one more month for my eligibility?

So the stamp in your passport has the incorrect date/month?
And you are saying you would like to wait another month for Czship eligibility?

Hello everyone :)
I just want to double check that we only need to send copies of biometrics (passports) not all the pages right? Thanks

That is true in general. But, if your passport has pages related to extension, renewal, etc, then copies of those pages must be sent as well.
