Did anyone get passport stamps translated? If yes, did you just get certified translations or notarized as well? Thanks

Certified only works fine

I just gave it to the translator and later posted it to the immigration office. Since they are "certified" translators no further work is required.

Good afternoon,
What’s the average time from applying to getting citizenship?

Thanks

I received the email on Nov 19 but the online status says the notice was sent on Nov 16. However, in both of them the ceremony date is the same. Therefore, it seems first the decision is made to send the invitation letter and the officer sends the emails some later days... you must receive the email in coming days...

did you guys receive the oath invitation by email or mail? I checked my status online today saying they sent the invitiation on Nov 14th, but I do not receive anything yet by email nor mail....just wondering...

Hi,
it also depends from which area you apply. But usually the time is between 6 (lucky ones) - 12 months.

thank you for replying. you submitted certified and the immigration officer was fine with it? reason i am asking because i can find many paid certified translation options, but then getting it notarized is a hassle and keeps increasing costs.
