Just had to say….congrats on your 3 years, 3 months, 3 days on T!! What are the odds I’d look at your tracker today?!
Hi, I was wondering would you be able to change your legal documents if you weren’t born in Canada? thanks =]
Kyle, it depends on which documents… birth certificates can only be changed where you were born. Other document changes tend to rely on birth certificates, though you can get an updated passport with an updated Canadian citizenship card.
