Hey Guys, I have received Oath invitation Letter on 04th Feb 2020. Ceremony will be held on 17th Feb 2020. I guess so many applicants have their ceremony on family day.

Went for a test today morning. Due to one of the officers was not available some people were given option to do the test and interview some other date (4-8 weeks) or do the test and interview next time. So did the test, but results will be given when interview will be rescheduled. Some people did the test only and some decided to do the test and interview next time. Majority of the people still had test and interview at the same day.

I can confirm that they are serious about waiting two business days before you go for your passport. My ceremony was last Friday, the 31st. I really wanted to go in on Tuesday but held off until Wednesday. I went to the Passport Office in Gatineau.

I mentioned to the clerk that my ceremony was on the 31st. She said she had a woman who also had her ceremony on the 31st come in on Tuesday. The applicant wasn't in the system yet so she had to come back. The clerk showed me my picture on her screen to show me I was in the system.

Thanks, I may wait then if I'm not showing as completed by Tuesday. Though it may vary by office based on the experience of others who were told sure we'll process it as soon as it completes :)

It doesn’t matter. There’s no limit. My brother did his oath taking and we were 4 people and one toddler with him.

I kinda disagree. Mine was at Scarborough, we had instances where people got 3 or more. Their guests were asked to wait outside the ceremony room as there was no space. The lady at counter told us 1 guest was guaranteed seating, any more was upto chance
Could be location based

Yes. It is based on the location. He’s asking about Mississauga office. There’s no limit there.

My brother-in-law just did his oath taking Jan 15. So it’s very recent. No limit.

When you arrive the visitors are called in separately at least Scarborough and I’ve read other locations.

They don’t check numbers of whom is with whom but there is obviously limited seating (half for those taking oath)...

Writing this from my ceremony... ;)
