April 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[forw.jane]

Hi,
I have filed an online application for me and my partner ( in APRIL 2023). I have received my oath ceremony email on 18th OCT ( 25th SEP) but my partner has not received anything yet ( her LPP is only in progress and others are completed. Is it normal or should I contact IRCC ? How should i contact them ?
We filed as a family should we get two different invitations?

Please help on this
?

Looks like your application path has deviated and your partner needs to wait. Recently seeing such cases for family application.
Every applicant gets separate invitation even if filed as a family.

Call and verify with IRCC - https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/posts/10523591/

My invitation for the Oath is on October 17 but I still have not received the email for notice to appear for the oath. Should I call IRCC since now it’s less than 6 days remaining since the event.

Hi all, after receiving the AOR, I haven't seen any update on the tracker. Everything is marked as "in progress" and the date of the last update is the AOR date. Is anyone else in a similar situation?

You can give the test without the email.

You can give the test without the email.

Thank you for the prompt response. I am a bit confused as some discussions mention that you will be asked to retake the test if you have not received the email.

Hi,

do we need to submit any additional documents for online application like pages of passports, other documents?
They didn’t ask for any documents just the bio page and driver license in personal information tab.
Is there anything else needs to be uploaded with online application?

Do we need police certificate if applicant lived in home country before coming to Canada in 5 years eligibility period but haven’t lived over 6months in last 4 years while on PR?
TIA

Even if you call IRCC, they will suggest you the same as your test window has started and you still dont have the email.

If you are able to login to your test portal as on the start date of citizenship test, you are good. As once you complete the test or invited, you will not be able to login to your test portal.
