Hi everyone,

Quick question, I got my oath email today , but I'm unclear about something. I applied for my daughter and myself ( a minor) and I would like her to attend the ceremony (online) but we have different seat numbers can we just use one computer to attend ?
And would I have to put both seat numbers when logging in ?
And is another email sent with the link when applying for e-certificate?

when you enter your seat number put 23, 24 and all will be good.
If you requested and e-certificate you will be send another email letting you know how to proceed.
If you and questions you can also ask the agent that you talk to before the ceremony starts.

Thank you so much for answering.

Hi

Have you received any update for Prohibition? if yes, after how many days?

Hi All,

I see majority reported all LPP completed at the same date. My Language and Physical Presence have been completed on Nov 28 and updated on Nov 30 as the last update but Prohibitions is still showing In Progress. Did anyone else experience similar case? Any idea? By the way I requested GCSM Notes on Nov 28 as well.

Thanks everyone.

Had my oath yesterday, sent signed oath form immediately after and received portal information for e-cert this morning thus completed my PR-> Cit journey.

No nothing new yet.

Hi everyone, I've only requested GCMS notes with Privacy Act. Has anyone chosen the other paid option? What information were you able to access through the Access to Information Act ($5) versus the Privacy Act option?

It is indeed very difficult especially when it is a waiting game with no end in site however I have seen many applicants who are still waiting for their oath date since 2022. Ultimately it depends on how long you have been waiting, if you think it is over the processing timelines then there are other means of escalating it through the courts such as a order of Mandamus. I recommend you also contact your local MP to inquire on your behalf on your application. Request GCMS notes weekly and also submit a Webform to request urgent processing.

https://secure.cic.gc.ca/ClientContact/en/Application - go to Check your application status - click continue to Webform and fill it out with your info.

The prohibition just remained for you?
When the others got green?

No nothing new yet.

 

[mrdmiust]

Do we have someone else who is just waiting for the prohibition to be completed?

Do we have someone else who is just waiting for the prohibition to be completed?

Yes, I am waiting for Prohibition.
Based on GCMS, Application Assignment due date is 2024, Jan 16
But scrolling down further, I see Prohibition Due date is 2024, August, so if nothing changes by the assignment due date, then there might be a long wait for Prohibition to come.
