If you have a North American Black Label (NTSC-U/C) disc, you may or may not have Citadel Skip. If you look on the back of the disc, you will find a number on the inner ring. This number indicates your version of the game and whether or not you have Citadel Skip. If you see a 1 or a 2, Citadel Skip is not patched and will work. If you see a 3 (or higher), Citadel Skip is patched and will not work.
