Re: Return BRP after Citizenship Ceremony within 5 days

Hi,

Our situation-

Applied for naturalization- September 2015
Naturalization approved- November 2015
Ceremony- Dec 2015

Do we have to return our BRP cards now? The rule to return the BRP did not exist at that time.

Please advise. Thanks in advance.
