No more ecas updates after dm. The oath letter comes by mail!

here are example:


We sent you a notice on February 20, 2018 to appear and take the oath of citizenship at the citizenship ceremony to be held on March 16, 2018 at 9:00 AM.

so happy

No that is not correct. They are one more line will inform you that the sent the letter to came for Oath. Like the one line for test?Interview. So still Ecas need some update

Oh really? I had no idea. Sorry I’ve never seen that line posted on here.

I see a change in Citizenship Ceremonies schedule for Calgary, some more added in April and two on May 02, 2018. And I think this is added today on March 15th: HD Cartwright School.

So, hopefully, good news on the way for all DMs!

Interesting! I hope that too .
In fact, looks things are moving in Calgary office, hope we will get invites soon. There were 2 ceremonies on April 13, one at 10:00 AM and one on 1:00 PM but I can't see them anymore, instead, there is one on the 21st and 2 on the 27th of April and 2 on May 4.
Let us hope to hear some good news pretty soon. The date doesn't matter to me as long as we get this long awaited invitation. (culmination of many many years of process, starting with the PR till now).
All the best for you all

A little learning: There are only 6 citizenship judges in Canada?!

For Calgary, we have only one, Mr. Joe Woodard. So I guess the personal circumstances, availability, and vacation time etc plays an important role in scheduling the ceremonies. Hats off for the hard work!

Hi SIMO1983, I have the same timeline, only difference is that I got my AOR in Nov, but nothing after that.
Could you tell me whats the process of getting in touch with the MP works?

I have tried calling several times and received the same response as yourself.

Same here,
I am wondering what's happening? No test invites, no Oath invites since February 26. Other offices like Vancouver, Ottawa and Mississauga are sending some oath invites.
We've been jinxed for being a fast office I guess .

Calgary office is Just Jinxed!!!! They have come to a complete halt - shutdown.

Indeed ! Now we know why the Calgary office employees are busy.
I am not sure though if they are having the tests in a different room. I did the test around 4 weeks back in Room 210, and I would say the room doesn't fit more than 40 people to be at least 2 seats away from each others. Maybe your citizenship was in another venue?

Wow, 100 people.

Totally make sense that they didn't send out more test invites. The office is swamped with applications
