My Dad became I Canadian citizen 10nyears ago, he is born a UK citizens but in canadian through naturalisation 10 years ago.

He was a UK citizens when I was born in 1992.

My question is can I apply for dual citizenship?

if i am a permanent resident of canada, will i need a transit visa if i travel via USA to Singapore

My son is studying in Canada and wants to extend his stay. In order to support him, we his parents transfered money to him (100,000 CAD). Does he have to declare this? It was made between banks.

Thanks in advance for your answer.

My husband is a PR in Manitoba.

My husband has declared bankrupcty and will be only be cleared by April of 2017.

Can he still file for spousal sponsorhip with his current status?

Due to a health situation I need to join him as soon as possible.

Kindly advice what's the best action on this. Thank you in advance. Any helpful info will be greatly appreciated

I renewed my Permanent Resident Card in December 2015. know I have to be at least 2 years in a period of 5 years to keep my residence. My question is:

Does this 5 year period begin to be counted since the moment I got my new PR card by renewal or I still have to count the days in or out before getting my new PR Card?

My wife & I arrived in Canada (landing at Toronto) on June 5, 2016 for permanent residence status. we were told at the border that our PR cards would arrive at our residence in Ottawa in 6 to 8 weeks. Now, almost 3 months have passed and we have not received the cards. Please tell us how and where we would contact to check this.

I have send out my renewed PR Card application by the regular mail at July 13, 2016. But I have not get any reply from CIC until right now yet. Is it a common situation or not? How can I check that is it going on the right way or not?

Hi everybody,

I am planning to sponsor my mom. I read this on the office website: ( the underlined part plz)

• You may not be eligible to sponsor your parent or grandparent if you:
  
  • failed to provide the financial support you agreed to when you signed a sponsorship agreement to sponsor another relative in the past
  • defaulted on a court-ordered support order, such as alimony or child support
  • received government financial assistance for reasons other than a disability
  • were convicted of a violent criminal offence, any offence against a relative or any sexual offence—depending on circumstances, such as the nature of the offence, how long ago it occurred and whether a record suspension (formerly called “pardons” in Canada), was issued

I used to get EI in 2012. Am I eligable to sponsor my mom in 2017?

Thanks a lot for your help..

Hi, My husband received the Confirmation of Permanent Residence but has a condition 51 stating that we have to cohabit in a conjugal relationship for 2 years. This is totally fine, but he will need to travel abroad within that period for family functions (sisters wedding, brothers graduation etc.) and for work settlements. Will he have an issue when he re-enters Canada? Appreciate your advice.
