Anyone know if they allow your children to attend the oath ceremony with you? I have a 5 year and a 5 month old that I have to bring with me since my wife and I both are taking oath. So far I've heard they're allowed to be with us but if they make any noise they will ask us to leave the hall.
Hello
That's correct, I called IRCC yesterday to discuss this point. I talked to a very polite and helpful officer . She put me on hold to validate with a senior officer and here is what I understood :
- They will accommodate for your children to be with you (even if already Canadian). Your children will need to sit on your lap. However you will be at risk should they miss behave and may be asked to leave. Her recommendation was that we plan for a friend/family to attend who can leave with the kids if required.
I am in the same situation and plan on having a baby sitter for this two hours.
Thanks
