Please update my name on spreadsheet

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on September 28, 2017.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on October 27, 2017.
3. We started processing your application on November 8, 2017.

I used the old form, so hoping that doesn't delay anything. If it's in progress, does that mean that the application was submitted properly and i'm not missing anything? I was outside the country for more than 180 days in Indonesia but was unable to get a letter from police. I added that within my application, but last week I received the criminal record check. Should I submit this now, or does it matter? If so, how do I get this to them? Trying to get through the process as quickly as possible

Thanks!!

Also.. how did @verveiko get processed so quickly. Are you on this thread?

Getting AOR alone means your application is complete and no missing documents. However, niether AOR nor IP mean that whatever you submitted is accurate. Eligibility/background/criminality checks are now being done on you. I would suggest submitting the PCC through the webform (link below). Not sure if you can simply upload it. If not, you can ask them how to mail it. Good Luck

Thanks for the information above..

"We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on October 27, 2017."

I never received this. Is this sent via post, or email? I don't see this anywhere.

There should be a pdf attachment with your AOR email. There's a link in there to download the pdf or audio version of Discover Canada.

I got my application returned by mail even status said (application received)

The return is because i missed one day from the 4 years!!!!! Instead if 1,460 days, my actual calculations should have been 1,459 because I listed trips outside Canada separately!!!!

Unbelievable and totally disappointed

Now I have to apply again with C6 rule

Full of frustration

I'm confused. Your calculator showed 1460 though? How did you lose a day exactly? Was this evident from your application, or did they have to go through border records to check your dates were correct?

I don’t think so, I signed my application on the same day i spent 1460 days in Canada and my application now in process

Did you sign it on the 1460th day or 1461th day? The day you sign does not count towards the physical presence.
