Admins, is there any way to put this information into a document or something so that users can see it?? Its really important for immigrating Canadians, especially if they wait too long and then run into a situation where its nearly impossible to get a new birth certificate.

June 7, 2013

I have one and haven't had any issues. Where did you come across that information?

My husband might have to renounce his citizenship, and this was stated in the instructions. I don't think it will be an issue here in the US, but might be in Canada. I talked with a woman at a Consulate who told me that even if we didn't need the birth certificate for the renunciation, we should still get one because if we ever have to do anything else in Canada, it could be a problem.

June 7, 2013

I've just learned that Quebec birth certificates that were issued before 1994 are no longer considered valid, and if you have to deal with anything in Canada, it could be come a major issue. I'm now having to jump through all kinds of hoops to get one while my husband is deployed, and I *really* don't want any of y'all to have to deal with this hassle!

If you can get onto l'etat civil's online system, it's quick and easy to order one, but they *won't* allow anyone on except the actual person - believe me, I tried! Thankfully, the mother or father who is on the birth certificate can request a copy, regardless of their child's age. They also don't need to provide any ID of the child, just their own, so my in-laws are able to take care of this for me.

Here is the link to l'etat civil: http://www.etatcivil.gouv.qc.ca/en/default.html

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up!

June 6, 2013

More likely a form he has to fill in, and notarise,

Like I say never assume its logical.

I sure hope so :/ But I haven't really heard from him since he told me about this, so hopefully everything is all right.

I did get some good news about the birth certificate, though! In Quebec, the parents can apply for their child's birth certificate - it doesn't matter how old the child is, and they don't need any of the child's ID. I had called this morning to check that the ID I had would be accepted, and the guy I spoke to (who of course didn't speak much English) kept telling me that my power of attorney might not be accepted :/ It would be really awful to send in all that money only to have them tell me, "tough luck." But the guy did say that it would be much easier if my in-laws applied. So my mother-in-law is going to send in the form and then send the birth certificate to me. Hopefully that doesn't take too long! *knock on wood*

June 6, 2013

Thanks for the info, everyone

It would be great for him to just turn in his passport and sign something...but when I talked to my husband he did mention a certificate of renunciation, so I suspect they actually want him to go through with the whole thing :/ I haven't been able to talk to my husband much in the past few days, but I've been talking to the FRG and I think they're doing some research for me. Hopefully I can get some answers soon!

June 5, 2013

I doubt the US government would be asking for his Canadian passport...doesn;t sound legal.

I would think though that once renounced the Canadian government will provide some sort of documentation which would then suffice.

The US Government is just asking him to renounce his citizenship, and if the renunciation is accepted he'll get a certificate.

We've got everything we need...its just this birth certificate debacle that' holding things up :/

June 5, 2013

Your husband may already have one of the new birth certificates around somewhere because the Government of Canada (including Passport Canada) has not been accepting them for many years. If I recall correctly there was even someone on the forum here who had to get a new one for US Immigration.

Do you know what it looks like? The one we have now is a laminated card with info on both sides. If I had a picture or a description, I could check with his parents and see if they have something.

June 5, 2013

The thread I remember was that they wanted him to renounce to the US Gov and handover his passport.

Do not assume that what they ask for is logical.

Ugh, ain't that the truth :/ This whole Immigration process is so far from logical!!

When my husband first mentioned this, he asked me to send the certificate of renunciation...which we don't have, of course. So I think they won't be satisfied unless he completely renounces everything :/

Now I have to try to find as much of my hubby's documentation as I can...I'm very doubtful that I'll be able to weasel a birth certificate out of the Quebec government...

June 4, 2013

OK....I'm feeling really stabby right now....

I was just re-reading the instructions to make sure I didn't miss anything....and I found this little gem:

Baptismal certificates, birth certificates, and marriage certificates issued by the government of Quebec before January 1, 1994, are no longer accepted. If you have one of these certificates, you must obtain a new document. This can be done by contacting the office of the Directeur de l’état civil du Québec by visiting their website at: www.etatcivil.gouv.qc.ca.

&%@!*(%#^@#(*$(&^!*(&$*($(!*&@#))%(*&!7^@3^!!!!

And, of course, we fall into that category :/ So I had to literally tear my house apart trying to find some of my husband's old identification - of course, we figured he wouldn't need that anymore! I managed to get all the information to log into this website........and it tells me to call Revenu Quebec > Of course it does! He hasn't lived there for five years! Ugh! I do have Power of Attorney, but dealing with the Quebec government is soooooooo frustrating!

*sigh* Sorry...just needed to vent a bit :/

June 4, 2013

Udella - it really does seem quite unfair :/ I'm sorry that didn't work out for you!

Boiler - When I talked to my husband, he said they wanted some sort of documentation...is there something else we can fill out for the US government instead of actually going through the process of renuciation?? Because that would be *awesome*!!

June 4, 2013

Thanks guys

I tried to call the number on the immigration page, but wouldn't go through. But then I managed to get a hold of a really nice lady at the Canadian Consulate in Dallas and she explained the whole process to me. Turns out that there is a consulate near where he is, so he can go and apply in person. That would be a whole lot easier! Hopefully he can get that done soon.

I am a little disappointed though because I didn't want him to have to renounce his citizenship. It's not like he's from a hostile country or anything...plus there does seem to be a double standard, since a guy he went to Basic with who's from South Africa didn't have to :/ But considering how hard it is for veterans to find jobs in this economy, I want him to stay in the Army as long as possible, so it will be worth it if he can become an officer...I just hope this isn't all for nothing :/

June 4, 2013

My husband is trying to get the paperwork in to become an Army officer, but his security clearance was denied because he's still a Canadian citizen. So he has to go through the whole renunciation process...Unfortunately, he's deployed right now, which makes all this even more difficult. Has anyone gone through the process before? I'm kind of nervous about whether it will get approved or not...

September 20, 2011

FINALLY!!! My husband had his oath ceremony last Thursday!! So glad to be all done with USCIS FOREVER!!!

TallCowboy0614 · September 12, 2011

Agree with above. We *never* combined bank accounts. My husband only recently started working, so I've mostly been the sole provider - and will probably still continue to manage the finances. I have access to his account for emergencies, but we just never bothered. I don't think you need to draw attention to that fact.

I was worried that we might come into question because we never joined our finances - other than adding his name to some of the bills and the lease - and I still haven't changed my name. We have a very happy marriage; we're just independent people. But I worried that someone with a more narrow view of things would think that was suspicious. But it never came up, so I wouldn't be too concerned or draw any extra attention to it.

September 9, 2011

Got some great news today! I got a call from USCIS' San Antonio office, and they said that my husband has been approved for citizenship, he just needs to call them and make an appointment to come in and take the oath! That was a *huge* relief...of course he's not able to use his phone until late in the afternoon/evening, which is what I told the woman...hopefully we can work this all out and get it done and over with soon!!!

September 4, 2011

My husband got a summons a while back. There was paperwork to fill out and send in, and he later got a postcard saying he was excused because he wasn't a citizen. Of course, he also had to fill in the members of his household and, mysteriously, I got a summons a month later :/

August 30, 2011

Had my oath today! I am now a proud U.S. Citizen! Yay!

Congrats!!! :dance:

August 25, 2011

Never ever FORGET!

:rofl:

August 23, 2011

cdneh - so sorry to hear that!!! Sending many positive thoughts your way and hoping that your husband can get a transplant!!

Our lives have been pretty crazy. DH went off to the Army in May, graduated Basic and the end of July, will be at AIT until December and then I *finally* get to leave Kentucky! His service also made him eligible for citizenship, and he was told that he'd be naturalized on Family Day...then the stupid idiots revoked it at the last second - he'd already passed their interview, but they said his background check wasn't done :angry:

When I got home from seeing him graduate there was an oath ceremony notice waiting for me, of course! :bonk: Still haven't heard anything about it, but I have contacted our Senator...hopefully that will all be done and over with soon. *sigh*

August 23, 2011

Every morning I used to wake up, get my coffee, then read the new posts on the Canada Forum. It used to be a lot of fun chatting and catching up with everyone. That all seems to be gone. Now I only see process-related questions. I miss the chat.

Me too...I keep browsing every once and a while but don't post much anymore Guess I'm also guilty of that haha.

August 7, 2011

Ok...I kept trying to edit that last line...no idea why its not working lol Can anyone with more BBcode experience help me out?

August 7, 2011

Updating...DH still hasn't gotten his oath ceremony Thankfully we have an awesome Senator who is working on it...

I am SO FED UP with USCIS!!! How does it take 2 months to run a background check from Canada? And how did those incompetents get 10 of them done, but somehow neglected ours??? Freaking idiots!!! I was soooo pissed off today that my poor husband had to stand in formation and watch everyone else get naturalized, but he has to wait for some unknown and rediculous reason!!!! Ugh!!! I hate them all...

So....apparently I spoke too soon....

Just heard from DH - he was told that,while some members of his platoon will be naturalized tomorrow, he won't be! #######????????? I'm pretty pissed off about this, but also in a huge panic because he's *livid* and has talked about quitting now at the last minute!!!! I think I got him as calmed down as I could while I was on the phone, but I really hope he doesn't keep thinking about it and do something stupid...

Please, please, please, can everyone pray that he'll be able to calm down and we can address this problem tomorrow with cooler heads....*sigh* Really don't know what to do...of course there's not much I can do except pray and panic... :'(

If I'm not mistaken, if you're applying based on marriage its 3 years from the first green card...
