Citizenship

[Betterip]

I’m a permanent resident but rotate back and forward to work out with the country so don’t accumulate the three years required to apply for my citizenship. My wife became a Canadian citizen about 5 years ago. I was just talking to a colleague and he said I might qualify for citizenship due to this. Is this the case?

 

[k.h.p.]

No.

If you didn't meet the 1095 day requirement, how could u be eligible for citizenship? It's a common sense.

Best to check the official immigration site, and not some hearsay from a colleague. Well you found out now

@bellaluna @chow 423 @masood8 - Is it a good idea to include passport stamp pages while applying for citizenship?

You could if you want to but it is not necessary. If they need it, they will definitely ask for it anyway. Do NOT submit too many extra documents. Give them what they ask for - not more, not less.

@rajkamalmohanram - Last year when I submitted an application for my wife's sponsorship I wrote self-employment details to date however I only had worked for only one month. At that time I did attach a LOE stating that I only had income via self-employed one month but the corporation is still active.

Now I realize that I should have put in only one month because I never had any business after that one month, though the corporation is still active. What should I write in the employment history of citizenship application? Just one month or till date? Will it create any issue based on past application.


P.S. I was employed full-time in conjunction with that business at the same time.

Thanks.

Well, write one month and you could maybe clear this up with a LOE.

In the citizenship application or change in sponsorship application?

The citizenship application. This is just to ensure that you don't provide conflicting information.

@rajkamalmohanram - Sponsorship application for my spouse is in process Got my Sponsor approved but I stayed for a short duration at my friend's place as it was easy to commute. I forgot to mention it. Is it a good idea to mention it now or stick to what has been sent?

I had a permanent address during this time where I was living the majority of the time.

IMO, if you had a permanent address at the time (where all your mail was being delivered, for example) and you were paying rent / mortgage (this was your primary residence) for this place and your friend's address doesn't appear on any of your documents, I think you should be good IMO. This is only my opinion.

@rajkamalmohanram - By documents you mean like tax, driving license etc?

Yeah. Do any of your documents / statements show your friend's address?
