Hi,
I submitted citizenship application in July 08, 2016 after meeting residency criteria of 1460 days out of 6 years, then I went out of Canada and returned back after 2 months.
Today, I received date for citizenship test and interview BUT on today's date(23 September), I again did residency calculation and after considering absence of above 2 months, I am shortfall by 2 days(only 1458 days).
It says that I have to meet all the eligibility requirement for grant of citizenship until the date of oath.
I think my citizenship will be rejected, please suggest |

Hi,
I called IRCC Call Centre today and Agent told me that the applicant is required to meet residency criteria of 1460 days out of 6 years immediately before the date of application but after then there is no compulsion to meet the criteria of 1460 days BUT still needs to meet the residency requirement for permanent residence i.e. 2 years out of 5 years. Thank you for your guidance. |
