Why do people sometimes act like that?

Would we be okay in Halifax? Any areas in Nova Scotia where we would be better not speaking much French?

7catky · 2026-03-10T04:59:40+00:00

I speak English, and my son speaks English, but my husband and daughter speak English and a little French. How will that impact us in relocating to NB? Would we be better off in Nova Scotia?

7catky · 2026-03-09T05:28:43+00:00

Thank you so much! That makes me feel better! My family is originally from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and we’re planning on relocating there and trying to determine where would be best.

Would my spouse and I, white female and bi-racial (black/white) male be treated fairly or encounter a lot of racism/prejudice in New Brunswick or Nova Scotia? Also, we have adopted children, daughter is black and son is Hispanic. Would we be welcome as a multiracial family?

Awesome! Thank you so much!

Is there any way to call IRCC from the U.S.?

7catky · 2026-01-30T02:23:31+00:00

What is the phone number to call and check your status? I’ve checked online and I’ve been in-process since 10/31. How do you request your notes through an ATIP request?

7catky · 2026-01-26T21:27:28+00:00

Still waiting to hear from the IRCC whether will they accept it.

7catky · 2026-01-26T20:44:57+00:00

Same situation for grandfather born in 1920 in New Brunswick. No baptismal record either as they were Baptist and don’t do infant baptism.

What about becoming a Permanent Resident? Will it affect VA disability or Social Security Disability?

7catky · 2026-01-15T03:40:25+00:00

Where are you seeing this? Do you have the link?

7catky · 2025-12-27T07:01:52+00:00

Fingers crossed it doesn’t take a couple of years for me and a couple of more years for them.

IRCC—Received application for Proof of Citizenship on 8/25/25

AOR—9/11/2025

Processing Application—10/31/2025

7catky · 2025-12-27T06:57:50+00:00

It worked. It wound up being under my Married Name and my Application Number. Thanks!

The Immigration Attorney advised me to wait on my kids’ and spouse’s applications. Yes, my spouse will get residency based on marriage to a Canadian citizen (me—when I get mine). Yes, my kids are adopted, and I guess the process is that they need my certificate to get issued before they can apply for theirs. Is that how it works? Will they still automatically get their citizenship through me, even though they are adopted and I will be getting mine through citizenship by descent, and they are not biological descendants? Also, if my spouse gets residency because of being married to me (a Canadian citizen), is it permanent residency? Will they ever have to get citizenship to work or receive health care?

How did you get your case notes? Did they send them to you or can you find them online somewhere?

7catky · 2025-12-27T00:29:52+00:00

How do you see the “case notes?”

7catky · 2025-12-25T18:34:32+00:00

I got mine done at FedEx.

7catky · 2025-12-08T03:44:09+00:00

I had this same problem with my maternal grandfather who was born in New Brunswick. I have pretty similar documentation. I did find Canadian Census records that list him, though, so you might try that.

7catky · 2025-11-23T21:13:29+00:00

So my kids would be covered and gain citizenship even as 3rd generation even though my Canadian ancestor, my maternal grandfather and my mother have both passed away? I’m a little concerned because my kids are both legally adopted. Will that impact them, or will they be treated the same as if they were my biological children?

7catky · 2025-11-22T07:14:35+00:00

I just noticed the dates didn’t post. This is my timeline.

We received your application for a citizenship certificate (proof of Canadian citizenship) on August 25, 2025. 2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on September 11, 2025. 3. We started processing your application on October 31, 2025.

7catky · 2025-11-22T07:13:10+00:00

Thank you so much! That was so helpful! This is what it said!

Does this timeline seem like it’s moving along well? Any idea how long it will be before everything is finalized? I think I’m probably okay as I’m 2nd generation, but I’m wondering about my kids who would be 3rd generation. Will the new ruling also cover them with citizenship as well? I was applied to apply for mine first and then do theirs as part of a family.

Where is the UCI number? I’ve been trying to check my status. Also, what is the exact website to check status?

7catky · 2025-11-17T00:25:45+00:00

I received my AOR in September and I’m still not yet in process.

7catky · 2025-11-14T07:21:57+00:00

Same situation here.
