June 2022 - Citizenship Applicants

[forw.jane]

Hi Folks, is it possible for ECAS to show "decision made" whereas the Tracker still indicates "oath ceremony not started"? If Yes, what does "decision made" imply?

That a decision is made on your application and oath will be scheduled. Is your LPP completed?

This is normal. For my spouse we have an update in ECAS yesterday that Oath is scheduled in Feb and I see in the new tracker that Oat not started, except background check and test all others in progress. Today I see tracker itself not loading which happens till oath is complete. Wait for the oath email if you dont see date in ECAS when you click on Decision Made

Hello Everyone,
Was wondering, if anyone of you here who has passport stamps in UAE & Oman? did you translate the stamps of those countries? There's an English date on it and you would be able to distinguish from the stamps the country and date. I'm just not sure if I still need to translate them. Would really appreciate your insights especially from those with successful applications.

Thank you in advance.

I had some of Kuwait and UAE on my passport but i submitted them without translation as they have the dates and the name in English. But i am still to receive my test email and others are still in progress. So others might be of better help than me.

It looks like the processing time varies significantly among the visa offices. Mine is in Niagara and it's complete silence since my BG completed on Dec 20th.

I know that Niagara office is short staffed so I hope things start to move for us as well.

My guess is 3-4 months, as that is all we can do with the IRCC timelines. Guess

LPP is short form for Language Skills, Physical Presence, Prohibitions

I think it's Sydney based on the AOR letter

Scarborough office

Seems Scarborough office sent most of our test invites two months after BGC completion. They’ve been pretty quick with reviewing the tests, so hopefully oath invites start coming in April.
