November 2013 Citizenship Application

[hadal]

hadal,
My file got transferred to Montral june 1st week and was give test Aug 14 2014.
you are close to receive a test date I hope. Good luck.

Thank you cic8888. Could you please share the exam experience? How did the interview go? When do you expect to have your oath ceremony?

In my case for one of my trips to US (I have only two) with my car, I miss the entry stamp into Canada. I have the entry stamp to US though, but the officer in canadian border apparently has forgotten to stamp my passport coming back to Canada!

I requested my CBSA report in July to have a proof and it arrived yesterday, however that trip is not even in the report. Every other trip is in there except for this one!

Based on your personal interview experience, do you think that this could cause any problem in my interview with the officer? Any recommendations for the interview in general?

Thanks,
Hadal

Hallo everyone and congratulations,

I am July 2014 applicant and sent my application 2 weeks before. There is no reply from CIC yet. When I sent my application I forgot to write "N/A" where it was not applicable. So, my questions are -

1. will CIC send my application back?
2. if yes, after how long they will send it back?
3. shall I send them another application with a letter and request them to consider my new application?

Please help

I sent my application and forgot to write N/A like yourself. CIC DID NOT return my application and all went fine. I got my test and Oath.

do not worry bud.

Good luck

Hadal,
I had 12 travels in 4 years but she didn't check all stamps. (randomly 4)...In your case since there are 2, they may very well see all 2. so if I were you, the day you claim that you come back to Canada - Did you do any sort of government interaction - like renewing license, buying car, health card renewal etc? (if so take a copy - keep it with you - if they raise show them and explain them).
if not, if you have credit card statements to prove or work etc.
but for 2 travel - you should be OK. do not worry but be prepared with all proofs.

questions were very easy - interview part, there were 5, out of them 4 are nice and the other one ( I don't know). what you do, where you live kinda questions.
Good luck

I had 4 missing entry stamps most of them were at Calgary international Airport. I brought my CBSA report in the interview and the officer literally said " OH lovely, i am glad you got the CBSA report with you this will make my life easy"

you must take it with you to prove the missing entry days.

Good luck

Interesting ... I am also missing a stamp at the port of entry from US to Canada. I have traveled a lot, but how can I get the CBSA report? Would you please send me a link or some information on how to do it?
Thanks alot

There is a question on the website that asks " Please select the act under which you are submitting the request". Should this be "Privacy Act" or "Access to information Act". For the next question (the type of records you wish to request), I am going to select Case files. I appreciate your help.

hello everyone.
thanks first for this topic. I am a november applicant, with an pre-test RQ.

january 2014 in process and book sent to me
june27th 2014 RQ received

I am quite surprised they invite me to pass the test since my RQ has not been processed yet, obviously.

You are really lucky to get your test right after your RQ submission...
I got a pre-test RQ as well and I replied by the end of July 2014, nothing since then

BTW, you can add your timeline to the November spreadsheet (Link in my signature)
Good luck with your test

These days they process the RQ after the test and not before, in order not to process the files of those who do not pass... efficient
