Hello guys, yesterday i met a family coming from Montreal, and they told me that rules were changes for citizenship , and now u have to wait 10 years in order to obtain Canadian passport, and not 3 like before.
So for those who were thinking to stay 3 years , obtain the passport and be back in Gulf to work....forget it !

Hi RICOLUNA . First congratulations for CSQ and welcome to our club !! (medical waiting club) ;)

Are you sure about this news?
Because nothing mentioned about that in the website :
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/become-eligibility.asp even this link was updated on 24/04/2012.
And it's clearly mentioned (To become Canadian citizens, adults must have lived in Canada for at least three years (1,095 days) in the past four years before applying. Children under the age of 18 do not need to meet this requirement.)

If this news is true we are in real trouble for another 10 years (in case we've landed within a year)
Please confirm this news as we really fed up of rumors.

Thank You

24 months is the time that they haven't been working on our applications... I dare anyone to show me that he/she got her visa in 24 months from Damascus VO

Hello Fadi, of course i am not sure...but this family just came to visit relatives, and last week the lady deposited her papers for citizenship and she was telling she was lucky couse a new law will be released now and it will take 10 years..Let's wait and see
 
But guys they must update all table, our visa will not be proceeded from Damascus, Lebanon will be responsible only for Lebanese people. Countries like Pakistan, UAE, Kuweit,Saudia Arabia will be proceeded from LONDON office. Syria from Amman.
So how many Lebanese u think are waiting ???? I think things will move fast after they start working with our files.
Have a nice week end
 
did anyone notice that the processing time in Colombia is 42 months.. it sucks for them too
 
yeah shakira gonna spend 42 months too 8)

I suggest you go do the test but first it is Absolutely important to tell the doctor that your wife is pregnant to prevent her from X-rays
