Naturalisation Residency Calculator

Post by eva_ » Tue Nov 13, 2018 11:55 am

Hi

In the Residency Calculator I must enter start date and end date for each year, but in the passport I can find only the end date and there is no starting date, there is only a stamp with date of the day that we get each GNIB card so does that consider the starting date?

could you help me please? Thanks

Do you have copies of your old GNIB card somewhere? The dates in the GNIB (now IRP) card should match the dates in your passport.

Hard to tell then, in theory the date in your passport stamp should be the start date but since you don't have a way to double check I guess you have no other choice than using that date in your passport stamp.

I can confirm that on all my GNIB cards, the start date is exactly the same as the date of endorsement of stamp on my passport. So the day I got a stamp on my passport is the start date of that particular GNIB card.

Thank you for your reply guys.

I was hoping the finishing date of last stamp is the starting date of the new stamps, or the day that we apply for the GNIB card. I this case I have to wait 2 months until I can apply for citizenship as I was applying for GNIB card on the day that will expire and receive the GNIB card after 3 weeks from that day so I'm missing time here.

Thanks again guys.
