Until C-6 changes take effect, what forms to use?

[Richnew]

I'll become eligible under previous regs in a few weeks and want to beat the rush. Any ideas about process in the interim? Thanks.

No changes in the forms except some modifications to the current forms. Make sure to download the latest form on IRCC website before sending your application. I will apply as well under the old law. End of August.

Hi Guys,

I have a question and your answers will be very apprciated.

I see under the Bill-C6: Applicants must file Canadian income taxes, if required to do so under the Income Tax Act, for three out of five years, matching the new physical presence requirement.

Does it mean if I'll apply in November 2017 I have to provide the income tax for 2017 (as it is one of the years that matching the physical prescence)? As you know we can't have these papers till May 2018, does it mean I have to wait till May 2018 (I don't think so becasue that does not make sense and that means no one can apply at the end of the actual calendar year or early in th enext fiscal year).

Thanks in advance

Currently on the CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/CIT0002ETOC.asp#language) there is still mention about Intent to Reside. I wonder when the new forms will be uploaded to the CIC website. Does anybody have an idea when? I am eligible to apply now.
