I followed the Guide which told me to send the application to the address:
Case Processing Centre-Sydney
49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, Nova Scotia
B1P 5Z2
and I wrote the exact address on the envelope and sent.
But later on realized that there is no mention of "Citizenship Grants" here. Will create problem? Worried whether it will reach the right department/person. I see that address in the application form mentions this, but I did not notice at that time.
I have been travelling between Canada (with PR card) and US (H1B) via land border and don't have stamps on my passport for each entry/exit. Not sure how this is going to affect my application.

If you followed the Guide you don't see GRANTS Adults in the Address, but you see the same in the Last Page of the Updated application where you signed on the Last Page , below the Signature it will be written Next steps and in twio BIG Squares the Address is printed.
At this Point I don't think you will be having any trouble, Other than the Specified Line there is no change in the address, so it will reach the Right Office and department (At this Point you can have this Positive Hope instead of keeping yourself in STRESS-for 2 more Months).

can anyone offer guidance on paper application PRINTING PROCESS, planning to send my application shortly.
When we print the application form :
1. do we leave the DATE OF APPLICATION EMPTY? and take a print AND ONLY after taking the print - SIGN and date the form USING PEN ? Please confirm ( Will we be able to validate and generate barcode if we leave the date of application empty to be hand signed and dated ?) please let me know
2.I will be going to Staples to print my application form and physical presence calculator -
IS it ok to take a print out 1 week -10 days prior to actual date of sending the application by courier ?
OR
is it mandatory to ensure this application form and physical calculator are printed only on the day you are sending it across?
So we need to send "Colour photocopy of all pages in your passport(s) during your five (5) year eligibility period" along with the application. I took it light and printed only biographical, stamps and visa pages. Please confirm all empty pages of the passport (s) should also be printed and attached to the application.
Is this an old requirement or a new one?
That being said, the rule is the rule, but whether you'll need the rule is another story. In practice, someone who reads French or English has no problem interpreting many European stamps, but may have trouble with completely different alphabets, so if you didn't include a translation beforehand, you may only be asked to translate some of those supporting docs but not others, even if the rule for a stamp written in Spanish and Arabic are the same.

Do we only need to get those stamps translated that are in the 5 year eligibility period? Or do we have to get every stamp on all our previous passports translated? If only in the last 5 years, what if someone moved to canada in 2018 on PR and hasn't left since then, so the eligibility criteria is met in the last 3 years, do they still need to translate stamps from 2017 or earlier?

I don't have a driver's license. My foreign passport doesn't have the signature on the biographical page. So I am submitting a copy of my health card and my foreign passport's biographical page and the signature page separately. Is that ok? This is what's written in the requirements:
Your ID must
have your
name
photo
date of birth
signature
be valid (not expired)
Examples of ID you can use:
biographical page of your passport or travel document

Examples of ID you can use:

photocopies of two (2) pieces of personal identification.
Examples of identification you can use include:
a copy of the biographical page of your passport/travel document (as requested above and also can be one (1) of your pieces of personal identification)
permanent resident card (PR card)
A PR card may only be used as personal identification if your second piece of personal identification was issued by the Canadian government.
driver’s licence
health insurance card
senior citizen identification card
age of majority card
foreign identity documents, such as a passport or government issued identification documents
So, you can use your health card and your PR card, right? You can submit your PR card if you use health card as a second identification (since it is issued by a government in Canada).
