Hi all any one still waiting for the retest ? From personal experience please how long it take actually to get it , I don’t think that it is between 4-8 weeks as stated ?

Our oath ceremony is scheduled on 17th May 2022. Just got an update on the tracker. We haven't received any email yet, waiting for the email.

Bit of a random question, but I noticed the "notice to appear" document for the oath ceremony mentions that you will be required to cut your PR card on camera.
My mother (who lives in Belgium) is quite unwell and I've been going back and forth from/to Belgium at a moment's notice and will have to continue to do so for the next few months at least...

I'm debating between postponing the oath ceremony (can I postpone it by 6-8 months or more?) or trying to get the passport as fast as I can. Can anybody confirm how long it took to get the citizenship certificate after the ceremony? The notice states 2-4 weeks to get the certificate, I want to make sure those are somewhat realistic numbers.

Ask for urgent citizenship certificate and urgent passport. You can get the whole thing done in less than a week if they do their job properly.

Vancouver is processing my application and it's the slowest office across the country. I've done the test and background check and no updates since January 31st.

I took the citizenship test in Nov 2021, didn't heard anything until March 31st , 2022. It took over 4 months for me.
