November 2022 - Citizenship Applications

[bbmoi]

Was this CELPIP general or CELPIP General LS?
When registering for the test did you mention its for immigration purposes? If not, your report should have this line: "This score report is not valid for the purpose of applying to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)." Written somewhere in it.

It was General. I don't think it matters what purpose you selected when registering.

Hello everyone.
Paper application delivered Nov 7th got aor Dec 28th.
I have a question. What is PR tracker account? Is it same with cic account? When I am trying to link my paper application it asks me if I have a pr tracker account and if I choose yes it asks for password. Is it the same password with cic account?

I would suggest you to create a direct account with New Tracker - https://tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/en using your UCI and Application No(Uld be there in your AOR email)
Also as you are a paper applicant you can track your application via ECAS - https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do

The first one is more detailed.

Hi,
I've answered the question "In the past 4 years, were you in a country or territory other than Canada for 183 days or more in a row" wrong as No.
I just thought I don't need PCC since I was in my home country just before immigrating. I didn't read the description that I should answer yes and explain why I shouldn't provide PCC.

Will my application be returned, and if accepted, should I do something?

App received Nov 8th

Thanks

Hello,
I had a similar situation and I selected 'No', you cannot say 'Yes' and do not provide PCC. In my case I answered 'No' and provided an explanation stating "I was in my country of origin prior to becoming a permanent resident of Canada in "<<Mon/Year>>". And I also attached the PCC I obtained for my permanent residency application in the 'Optional Documents' section. Which I have also stated in my explanation.

However I still have some concerns with this topic though I have clarified this with other applicants personally.

Let's wait to hear from other experts from this group too.

Thanks!

I don't think you'll be able to link it there. You'll have to use the new tracker (for both paper and online applicants - link in signature) and/or ECAS (paper applicants only)

thank you, got tracker account and it is showing things more than ECAS.

i submitted my application in \november 2022 and i received my application back stating that the application was incomplete. (2 adults and 3 minors). \


Reason
"you have not submitted two identification documents for the child"

i realized that i did not submit one of the following documents
1. \provincial medical card
2. \health \insurance card
3. School Records

my question is

Now that I am including one of the document(s) above, Should I print a new application form or the old form would be enough. Please advise as I want to be in the queue once again as early as possible
