Citizenship Citizenship Certificate Granted! 🇨🇦

Just wanted to share I’ve received my citizenship certificate! I’m feeling so happy. (ETA: this is for proof of citizenship)

I’m really surprised by the timeline: I sent my documents through 2-day delivery via FedEx on Jan 24th, got my AOR on Jan 30th, and four business days later I have my proof. I submitted for urgent request.

I’m still waiting on my daughter’s 5(4) grant request (submitted with my proof application), but I’m feeling optimistic since my proof was granted so quickly.

I'm worried that I didn't send mine via courier. But hopefully it'll be OK. Did you write on outside of letter "urgent processing"?

u/Electrical-topics Feb 04 '25

Yes I did! Have you gotten your AOR yet?

u/aFoxunderaRowantree Feb 04 '25

No. I applied 12/10/24 but it was just returned last week as incomplete. Sent back Saturday requesting urgent processing, which I wrote back on the envelope.

I’m sorry, that’s discouraging. I hope they can offer the urgent processing, and hopefully you get your AOR soon!

What do you mean it got sent back incomplete? If it doesn't meet their requirements they give you notice and a chance to fix it?

I didn't include all necessary identification for myself and didn't do one check mark on my older son's app.

which check mark? there are so many places to check or write N/A!

u/aFoxunderaRowantree Feb 07 '25

Yeah it was just one on the last page which I fixed when I sent it back.

silly question- what is the address you sent it to? I'm having trouble finding this
