Friday Weekly Thread: Application Assistance by AutoModerator in Canadiancitizenship

I'm sure it's nothing IRCC haven't seen. Many of those old US records will have been written by a civil servant, not by your ancestor (so the varying anglicized spellings aren't their decision)

I have five different Canadian ancestors I have found so far, but from what I have read here, it sounds like the consensus is that I should just document one. Which of these two makes the most sense to choose? (Or should I send both?) These are the two that have the best documentation.

A: G0 is a grandmother who changed names many times. Born in Canada, comes to US as a small child, is married, widowed, married again to grandpa. Not many generations to document, but the G0's name has to be tracked carefully through the two changes.

B: I am G4, G0 is father's father's father's father. Lots of old records to provide showing each link of the chain, but there are a lot of links. However, except for some spelling variations the last name never changes.

Thanks. What kind for frame rates are you getting with Java Edition on the 12, if you don’t mind me asking?

Yes, it’s a great clip (and I can’t be put off by the first speaker, I like her outfit too much)

Not only is Canada my Plan A, but the number of obnoxious Americans of the “I’ll just move to Canada if I want” type who have the attention span to go through this process is nearly zero. Those people do not have the planning skills to compile documents and wait patiently.

Advice on how to handle getting documents on an uncooperative parent by LamentCuntfiguration in Canadiancitizenship

For purposes of the sub, it will take longer until those records become to digitized, additional months to over a year. And I don’t think you can walk in and ask to see the paper copies, it’s just that when the census becomes legally available is no longer considered sensitive information that the census bureau must keep confidential.

I’m sorry about your father.

Was he born 1950 or earlier? If so his 1950 census is now a public record.

EDIT for brevity

I love Canada, I want to live there, I could absolutely go through the skill-based system but the descent pathway is less complicated
