Hi, I'm curious! What documents were you requested? Did you get a RQ by any chance?
They requested :
1.Rental agreements, leases or mortagage documents.
2.Records of employment or pay stubs.
3.Official education records
4.Income Tax option C printout for (2014,2015,2016,2017,2018).
Yup. That's a RQ and that explains the delay. Did the letter they sent you look something like this?
I am not sure. This is the RQ 'Lite' version you received. I'm very glad you did not receive the full-blown RQ letter.Yes same letterAm I gonna wait two more years ?
I'm sorry, I can't answer the 'how long' question because I don't know and I haven't seen many people being sent a RQ lately. The reason why your 'Residence' is still in "Progress" is because of this RQ.
I do have some follow-up questions, please and I would be grateful if you could answer them. I'm asking these to get a better understanding of your circumstances as to why you might have received a RQ and will also be useful for me to refer to this in case someone else gets this god forsaken letter.
1. Did you travel internationally after becoming a PR? (how many trips outside Canada?)
2. Did you visit the same country multiple times or visited a lot of countries?
3. Were you employed (full-time or part time) or self-employed during your eligibility period?
4. Did you have any periods of unemployment during your eligibility period?
5. Did you change passports during your eligibility period (renew the passport, for example)?
6. Did you sponsor a spouse or child (or both) towards the end of your eligibility period?
7. Did you work or study outside Canada during your eligibility period?
8. How many days were you physically present in Canada before you applied for citizenship (as per your physical presence calculator)?
9. Did you file $0 tax returns (no income) in any of the years within your eligibility period?
10. Did you identify yourself as a 'non-resident' in any of the tax returns you filed during your eligibility period?
11. Do you have a PR status in any country other than Canada (like Australia?)
12. Were you questioned by CBSA as a part of secondary inspection when you entered Canada from abroad anytime?
13. As an extension of questions 1 and 2, how many days were you outside Canada in total during your eligibility period?
I know this is a lot but please try to answer as I am trying to understand what might have caused IRCC to issue RQ.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
Items 3 and 4 might have contributed to this RQ request.
May be @dpenabill can provide a deeper insight but IMO, long periods of unemployment (and sometimes being self employed through out) might raise some eyebrows about residence requirements. The reason is because before June 2020, CBSA did NOT track the exits out of the country. They used to only track entries into the country. Because of this, when IRCC queries CBSA DB, they would see only entry records. They had to ascertain that you have truthfully declared the date when you left the country and this RQ might have been a result of that.
