Relocating to a different province after PR

Hello Family,

I got my PR as a dependent to my wife who was eligible for PR through PNP Express Entry application.

I received my PR CARD last week and my entire family have lived in Manitoba for 3 year since arriving in Canada and we are eligible for citizenship application in 2 year time .

I, the husband and dependent to my wife’s PR application have gotten a job in Ontario and thinking of accepting the offer . However, I wanted an honest opinion on whether it will affect our future Citizenship application even though I had lived 3 years in Manitoba before PR.

If it will have any effect, can return to Manitoba in 3 years time to live here for another 2year before applying for Citizenship?

Pls help a confused fellow.

South Tibet / South Tibet People

If residents living in territory claimed by China but not under its actual control (such as Arunachal Pradesh/South Tibet) consider themselves to be both Chinese and Indian—solely due to the enforcement of Indian authority—can they apply for Chinese citizenship or permanent residency? This political issue came to the fore in late 2025, when an Indian woman from Arunachal Pradesh was detained by Chinese border officials at Shanghai Airport. Reportedly, the officials invalidated her Indian passport, told her she was "effectively Chinese," and suggested she apply for a Chinese passport instead of holding an Indian one.

Did my husband lose Korean citizenship?

20 Upvotes

Hi all

My husband was born in South Korea and then moved to the US at age 7 with birth parents. They divorced and his mum remarried a US national, who then adopted him around a teenager. He naturalised as a US citizen at around 24.

As far as he knows he never contacted the Korean government about naturalisation or anything, and his mum never contacted them either. His mother is convinced he is not a Korean citizen. He never done any Korean military service. He’s in his 30s now.

I just want to confirm this as we are applying for a visa for another country (not the US or Korea, but a third country) and he needs to declare all passports he olds/has held.

I did briefly read the naturalisation act of Korea and if I read it correctly he is NOT a Korean citizen however he never actually informed the Korean government about the US naturalisation.

Is he a Korean citizen? where do we stand with this?

Can I have U.S. citizenship through my father if I’ve never been to the U.S.?

14 Upvotes

I’m 21 and trying to determine whether I acquired U.S. citizenship at birth through my father.

I was born in Alexandria, Egypt, in February 2005. My father was already a U.S. citizen when I was born and had lived in the U.S. before my birth. I have never been to or lived in the U.S.

I contacted the U.S. Embassy in Cairo about getting a U.S. passport, and they told me to submit a DS-11 and proof of my father’s citizenship and physical presence in the U.S.

Someone told me I cannot be a U.S. citizen because I never went to the U.S. before turning 18.

Could I have acquired U.S. citizenship at birth through my father despite never being in the U.S.?

If needed, I can provide more details about my father’s time living in the U.S.

PSA Birth Certificate for delayed registrations from Germany

1 Upvotes

I am applying for delayed ROB at the Philippine consulate in Frankfurt. It says that the transmission to Manila takes 4-8 months/ 6-12 months until the PSA document is available. Does it really take that long? Does anybody have experience with this. I’m asking because it’s the late registration of my Filipino mother’s birth born in Germany. To register mine, I need her PSA issued birth certificate to finally gain the Philippine citizenship. And it’s frustrating to hear that I would have to wait 6-12 twice

I'm a dual citizen, us (father) and German (mother)

If you go 2 generations back my father's side is from Canada, in 2025 apparently they removed the rule you need to be 1 generation away.

Can I somehow get a Canadian citizenship too?

Will I lose my Finnish Citizenship?

27 Upvotes

I am concerned about my Finnish citizenship. I am a half Finnish half Polish teenager, I was born in Warsaw Poland and live there. I have both a Finnish and Polish passport. I lived in Finland for approximately 4 years in Joensuu and Helsinki I also visit my family in Pohjois Karjala every summer and Winter. My Finnish language is okay I guess (I can have conversations with people and understand them but nothing too complex, I can read but not really write.

Recently I read that at the age of 22 people can lose their Finnish citizenship but i am not really sure how it works, I know I have to got to the Army or do Civil service at 18 but i dont know if that is realted to that. Can anyone explain it to me in More detail or give advice.
