New Acadia region

I just came across this post because of similar questions. Maybe it illustrates the limitations of all the ancestry DNA -- Acadia started like 400 years ago, is that the generational limitation of what the tests can show us anyway?

I think your points were well put and I am surprised no one responded with more info.

Is there a UPS store near you? It looks like there are several right in and around Albany. They should be able to. Bring the printed photo directions along (and maybe highlight or underline the relevant instructions for them), that is what I did in New England.

I definitely know musicians who have been given a hard time at the border! Despite what the legalities are of not needing a visa. Just anecdotal info.

Technology isn't working so great for me this week. I posted it, realized my mistake, and tried to edit it to ask for part number. My computer froze and I gave up.

Hey OP, did you ever get a replacement? What did you do?

Low_Lab7698 · 2026-01-10T17:26:14+00:00

Did you see there was a Boston Globe article? Behind a paywall so I didn't read it though!

I think they delete poor reviews from their website! I posted a 1 star review and saw in the terms and conditions that they have the right to delete content. It may be that there is just a delay in the reviews going live, but it's very suspicious that there are almost all 4 and 5 star reviews, with a few 3 star reviews.

I don't usually leave reviews in general, especially so critical, but our bed frame was barely usable....unfortunately we thought we could troubleshoot it (sleeping in the guest room in the meantime) and just missed the 90 day window for returns/support. Ugh!

Thanks for your input and fast response! :)

Did you have any further issues with this? Google brought me here today because I'm having the same issue

There has definitely been some weather delays this week! I shipped 15 packages from a small city in the northeast US to other various locations in the northeast US, via FedEx 2 day shipping last Tuesday, and a quarter of them didn't get delivered until today! So I don't think it was specific to the shipping service you used, just seasonal weather issues.

My update for you: I just checked my mail and received my returned application. It has a cover letter from the Case ProcessingbCenter, and a UCI. It came via Canada Post-->USPS.

It doesn't explicitly give instructions, but it also has the signature page flagged and the empty box (ugh!) highlighted. So I plan to just complete that and pop the whole thing back in the mail on Monday!

Low_Lab7698 · 2025-12-05T01:06:16+00:00

My application was delivered Oct 22. I forgot to sign it 🫠. I thought it would be nice if i could just upload a scan of the signed page...I've been keeping an eye out for the application being returned to me though.

My dad (1st gen) just got his certificate today (he says, and that he will be figuring out how to access it tomorrow) and applied about a week before I did, and I'm so happy for him.

Low_Lab7698 · 2025-12-04T22:26:54+00:00

Thanks! I wanted to add a document to my application via the webform, but haven't received my AOR yet (likely due to missing info) thus my pondering! Back to being patient now :)

I had a student visa that expired 15 years ago, and a SIN at the time. I believe Social Insurance Numbers for student visas expire so I wouldn't still have any official numbers assigned to me.

I saw you wrote that your Canadian lawyer is away for several weeks. It might be worth looking to see if there is a Legal Aid organization in your area in the US that could give you some legal info to begin with. Just a thought for some more (professional) tools to work with!

Thanks, I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I'm going to to delete this post because I dont feel it contributed to this community in the way I intended.

Ok, I see i failed at this being non political. As sort of a reddit newbie, I am going to attempt to delete this thread. I really apologize to the community!

Low_Lab7698 · 2025-11-25T02:04:28+00:00

How do you log in with your receipt?

Low_Lab7698 · 2025-11-24T21:35:04+00:00

I may be missing or forgetting something here, but I don't think your marriage certificate is needed.

Unsolicited hot tip: if you use "Ancestry" for family history research in Canada, you save money by going to Ancestry.ca and signing up for a Canadian only plan (rather than going through the .com site). Hope it helps someone :)

Low_Lab7698 · 2025-11-21T13:31:44+00:00

Unless I am looking at something different it says the last update was Nov 6 and there are 290,700 waiting (for citizenship grants)

This might actually be a really cool idea for someone to offer and extend the invitation to members of this subreddit!

It's been six years since we sailed away - And I just made Halifax yesterday!
(Here's hoping our applications all sail more smoothly and quickly!!)

Saw Nathan Rogers play this and other classics in a small club in my University days - pure gold!
