July 2017 Citizenship applicants

[donald duck]

I can totally appreciate that. My patience has been over since long time ago. This is why I did not have any patience to accumulate any buffer over 1461 days. I rushed to the courrier next day after becoming eligible and I am glad I did that because each extra day of wait would cause more delays given the spike of application volume after 3/5. Ironically, I got the test invite on the same day as the Minister's announcement of the effective date for 3/5 so I literally jumped onto an accelerating train

Congratulations Katayoon!

Thanks so much! Would you mind also correcting a typo in my decision made? It is October 28th not 27th - not a big deal though

Oh please ignore my request - I see that it has been corrected already. Thanks so much!

@Joeeyes .. Did you receive a decision made so far? I assume I am the only one from Saskatchewan in that tracker that is yet to get decision made.

@JJS; You are not alone. I am still patiently waiting having completed my test approximately three weeks ago ( Oct 10th). Its been a bit disappointing, but again, nothing one can really do but wait patiently.

That's true. The faster it was to begin with, the slower it got later. But maybe we get our oath letters before the ECAS updates. I've read that for several people. Also I see more oath ceremonies scheduled for Novemeber which is a good sign. Seems like they're trying to clear the backlog.

You need to bring everything they list in the test invite + test invite + passports (originals of every passport you submitted with application + new ones, if any) + Certificate of permanent residence + Permanent residence card + language proof + 2 IDs + police certificates if this applies to you (if you have submitted them).
They will already have your residence calculator and application form
