Scarborough -DM-Oath

[SpiceIsland]

Hey guys,
Could anyone please confirm if Scarborough is still part of Canadian citizenship ceremony centre? It’s no longer on the list

Maybe they are cleaning house the way they are so not organized don’t worry Mississauga seems to be picking up all Scarborough Oath.

Sure we can help with cleaning utensils..... (brooms, vacuum cleaner, brushes, etc...) am so hoping this week. The wait is becoming frustrating

I left home about 7.20 and we reach there about 8.35 the traffic was busy plus we were coming from Markham and 401.

You may want to leave at least an hour to 1.5 hour gap between estimated time of arrival(may be use live traffic information). One of my friend encountered unexpected delays on highway despite having more than 30 min b/w Oath time and estimated arrival time due to traffic issues. He was only travelling 15 KM from his home. It is better to reach and take a short nap(wake up in time though) at the location than stuck in traffic and miss it.

Interesting. Looks like all Scarborough applicants will be taking their oaths in Mississauga going forward.

That won't be a pleasant drive. Luckily my ceremony is at 12:30, so I can evade the rush hour traffic. Still looking at a 1.5 hour commute from Newmarket to Sauga. If my ceremony was at 9am, I would consider an overnight stay at a motel near the airport or near the ceremony, assuming it's < $100 .

Totally agree, mine is at 9am and I am thinking to leave home 5 AM to be on safe side lol. I don’t trust 400 series these days.

Sorry for asking this again - how late can they schedule the test at Scarborough? My test is scheduled at 715 pm. Isn't that a bit late for Govt office ?

That’s good news, they are working overtime.
Good luck for the test.

Do both the test invite letter and ECAS indicate the same time?

it's not that bad. Instead of paying $100 for a hotel I will use 407 all the way and pay 20 or less.

To those who live in Markham, Stouffville, Aurora, Newmarket (close to the 404) who had to take their oath in Mississauga in the morning (9 AM weekdays), how long did it take you to get there on time?

Note: travel 404, 401... not 407.

Thanks!

I have driven from Stouffville to Mississauga (airport Rd area) for an 8am meeting in the past, left home at 6 and arrived early.
If I were you I will leave home at 6 am just to give myself enough time and I am sure you will arrive early because traffic is always better between 6 and 7 am.
