Aha...now I get it.. OK, so here's the scoop: no FP in my case, they just needed to redo my background checks, no action required of me Monster

Clarity please... Hi there, I really didn't understand what you meant by FP and tes...can you please clarify? It might be that I am having a long day over here but I really couldn't think of anything for those acronyms... monster

Good evening folks, A few questions about getting a Canadian passport: - has anyone applied for one from the US? - do they check all your previous addresses when you apply? - has anyone applied for the 24-48 hour service and gotten through? - What other questions do they ask if you...

Update Hi everyone, Just a little update. There is, after all, light at the end of the tunnel. My oath ceremony has been scheduled on September 3rd!!!! Here's my timeline: - Send application for citizenship on April 5, 2002 - Receive confirmation that application was received on April...

Thanks for the info Vault, Thanks for the good info. If my application does not get resolved until the end of September (which would mean 1 year and 5 months since I applied) I will go and see the MP. monster28

Confusing to the extreme... The whole game changes again...now CIC is telling me that I am still just waiting to be scheduled for the oath. It's been over a year since I sent my application for citizenship and I am getting tired of all this running around. It feels like it's never going to...

CIC - bunch of jokers Here's my timeline: - Applied April 5th, 2002 - Received letter April 17th, start processing - Took citizenship test on April 16th, 2003 (yes, a year later) - Now my background checks are expired and they need to be redone before I can take the oath...what a bunch of...

I waited... Hi, I actually waited until the entire balance of the 1095 days was in, it was actually a couple of months over the required number. Only after that did I proceed with my transfer to the US. monster28

You should be OK Hi, I was in the same situation myself, and trips to the US for my Canadian employer. So these are the options that I see for you: you can apply for citizenship and then have to explain all the little absences (or try without explanation, don't even bring it up), or wait...

For Canada! Hi Canada, Did you get your passport? How did you go about applying? I am in a similar situation to yours, having worked in the US for about a year now. Residency requirement complete before moving to the US. Getting ready for the oath and need to apply for the passport. Did...

Hi everyone, I am getting ready to take my oath for the Canadian citizenship!!! Finally, at the end of one road, and it's been a long one too! Anyway, here's my question to you: in applying for a Canadian passport, can I do that with no problems from the US? I mean once I get the...

Documents needed at Citizenship test Hi everyone, Sorry about the long delay in answering your posts. I did take my citizenship test and the only thing they wanted to see before they let us walk in the room was the letter that they sent me with the date for the test. That is it, I mean no...

Answers Hi everyone, No, I am not commuting back and forth. I have been living in the US for a while now. But I was transfered here working for the same company. And I have met the residency requirement for the citizenship. My only concern was in relation to the address on the Health...

Hello my fellow immigrants, Quick question: for the Citizenship test they ask that you bring two forms of ID in addition to whatever documents you used in your initial application for permanent residence. So here's the question: will they check the address on the driver's license and does...

No problems... Hi there, In my case I did think that they might find some problem, knowing how immigration can be sometimes. But I had no problems with anything. I have L1 status right now and have been going back and forth between the US and Canada. Then again, I wasn't technically out...

What interview? Hello again, What do you mean by interview? I was under the impression that there is a test and an oath ceremony. What kind of things are we being asked during said interview? I currently work in the US...are there any pointers that you could give me. Oh, here's my...

Good morning everyone, Quick question and something I heard yesterday: is it true that at the time of the citizenship test you are also invited to the oath ceremony? If you pass the test that is? My thinking is that they've automated the test process and generate the results on the spot...
