Canadian Residents living in the UK:

Whether you’re planning a short vacation or a long-term stay abroad, sign up with Registration of Canadians Abroad. This free, confidential service will keep you connected to Canada in case of an emergency abroad, such as an earthquake or civil unrest, or informed about an emergency at home. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOUR TRIP IS A FEW WEEKS OR IF YOU ARE STAYING IN THE UK FOR 5 YEARS.

Parents: If you are returning to Canada with your children, and not with your spouse, you should take a parental consent letter with you. It does not matter that you and your children are Canadian Citizens, you may experience long delays at Canadian immigration if you do not have a consent letter from your spouse!
