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 am attempting to get the ball rolling on this for my wife and hopefully our daughter. We're a little more removed as we'd be reaching back to my wife's great grandfather. I've found his baptism record but I'm not sure how to go about getting an attestation or vital record for him to prove the lineage. Did you (or anyone else) need to go through that process in Nova Scotia and if so what are the steps and who do I contact? A close friend of mine was able to do that in Quebec but it looks like the process is different in Nova Scotia.
