From what city to what city? They'll send mine from Winnipeg to Vancouver. I provided an explanation & flight itinerary so hopefully they agree to expedite.I got mine certificate within 6days after the oath.
Congrats! Was hopeful we would be in the same ceremony as we have the same timeline, but no invite for me yet. Hopefully soon.Became a Citizen today. Overall the ceremony took about 2 hours. Now begins the wait to see if they'll expedite my certificate...
Yeh .. def know the feeling .. stuck since June 7 , 2021 - waiting for a test date !Congrats, that gave me some hope as I’m still stuck at Apr 23, 2021 for the last update. Waiting for the email to schedule my test.
I called CIC yesterday but had no update. Same as the tracker.

Oh WOW !! Congrats - what is your time line like and which office did you get the invite from ?
Thank you - Good LuckApplication Type: Single

Background Verification Completed: April 12, 2021

It came from SCR I’m assuming that is Scarborough office.
Thats amazing - how did you manage to get hold of them ?Today morning I spoke to cic agent, she was helpful. Told two of the major processes which takes time are done security and background check. She told my file is actively worked on and is in the given timeline. Physical presence and prohibitions part are remaining. Also told there are chances oath could be in-person as they are planning to reopen in person oath ceremony. My online app has ghost update on feb 14 but March 8th there was a note for security and background check which CIC agent told. Hopefully I should get it asap don't want to renew my PR card.
All the best
I thought we would have! My office was switched from Vancouver to Winnipeg and I was #85 out of 85. Suspect they're doing this to clear the backlog quicker so don't be shocked if your oath invite isn't from Vancouver.Congrats! Was hopeful we would be in the same ceremony as we have the same timeline, but no invite for me yet. Hopefully soon.
What do you mean "granting my boys application"? Do you mean granting them citizenship? What ages are they?just got a call from IRCC. The agent was granting my boys application via phone call! What a surprise after almost a whole year waiting from last update on Apr 23rd. I checked the tracker, not updated yet. How long will it take to get the citizenship certificate by mail?
Yes granting them citizenship. They are under 14What do you mean "granting my boys application"? Do you mean granting them citizenship? What ages are they?
I still don't understand what the call was for. As far as I know, children under 14 get their certificate without taking the oath or attending the ceremony or any other action. I might be wrong, but this call sounds strange to me.Yes granting them citizenship. They are under 14
Never heard of IRCC actually calling - usually is via Email or Mail .just got a call from IRCC. The agent was granting my boys application via phone call!
