cabmanottawa. on the first page of your RQ did you notice that we require your documents from to date to when you applied, to determind your residency obligation.
i would say put all your documents from the date you became a permenant residence, to the date you applied for your citizenship application.. on the first page of RQ letter, they have filled the date. please check that out.

CIC has a lot of good people who do want to work. But their workforce was slashed dramatically since 2012. The issue is funding, budget and political leadership, not individuals shirking their work.
