I received my oath ceremony invitation today around 8:45 am and it is 10 pm. I still did not get any instruction or email on how to perform the oath (email with instruction). Is it normal? Do I wait few more days? What should be done? Oath is May 10th.

Hi Everyone.,
I applied on 30th March 2021 and got AOR on 17th August 2021.

I don't know if it's a coincidence but I asked for my notes on March 28 and April 22 they requested my notes to the office or officer , I don't know how it works but that same day was the day that my citizenship ceremony start being in progress but in the notes It doesn't reflect that. I feel that in one way or other the notes really help at least for they checking my application or could be just a coincidence.

Hi. I got my tracker updated on april 7 after my test but physical presence, prohibition and language are still showing in progress. I wonder what was the update about? Seems like a ghost update. Any member observed similar situation?
Yes, ghost update means that the officer opened your file and worked on it.

Hey guys, how do you find out which office is processing your application? It doesn’t say in any of the communications that I have with IRCC.

What are email addresses from which you got emails? E.g. If it says SCR then it is Scarborough, if ot says MIS then its Mississauga.

Thanks for the clarification. On the email that I received after notifying them that I am out of the country for my test the email was ircc.dncitscrscheduling…I suppose this is Scarborough. Any idea about processing speed at SCR compared to MIS?

One difference I noticed is that SCR is more accommodating in scheduling oaths (if decision is already made) in case you have travel plan or some other reason. & Mississauga office it seems is focusing on clearing backlog from 2019-20.

Invaluable observation. Thank you for sharing. Hopefully they get to all of us quickly.
