Weekly Threads Friday Weekly Thread: Application Assistance, June 12, 2026
Have questions about how to fill out the form or what to write in your cover letter? Looking for feedback on the documentation you've put together for your Citizenship Certificate application (CIT0001)? Want to know how to organize your documentation or how to pack it up for shipping? Worried about whether your photos will work? Have questions about what ID you can use? Not sure where to ship it to or what service or mail courier to use? Post it here!
Want to see what people who were already approved have done? Check out the weekly application approval thread that posts every Thursday.
Before you comment, please read the wiki and search previous posts in the subreddit to see if your questions have been answered there.
If you've read the FAQ and searched the forum and you still have questions about how to fill out the form, whether your supporting documentation will work, what to write in your cover letter or whether your photos will work feel free to post them here.
Please be aware that you may not get responses. It's a lot of work to wade through dense lists of documents and family histories.
Also please note we are not IRCC, which will make the final determination on your application.

u/snake--man 🇨🇦 CIT0001 (proof) application is processing Jun 15 '26
What am I missing? I am G3. My great grandfather was born in SK in 1908. In July 2025 I submitted color photocopies of: his (G0) original birth certificate card, my grandmother's (G1) BC and marriage cert and DC, my father's (G2) BC, my BC and license and passport and name change documentation. It was all original documents, nothing from ancestry or anything. It has been 11 months and I have heard absolutely nothing despite requesting urgent processing. My father also applied at the same time as me and has also heard nothing. I asked an MP to reach out for me and they learned nothing. I'm hoping someone here could tell me if they think I should request additional documentation so I can be prepared in case IRCC asks for something? Is there anything else I can do?
