It's a long wait. But, I'm glad they aleast told how long it would take. It feels less anxious than waiting for an unknown time.

I'm from Mississauga, no update yet on oath ceremony.

Myself and My wife status updated to DM but my daughter status is still “In Progress”, can someone with the same experience please share your thoughts?

It is normal, after you complete your oath, everyone will have a complete status.

My criminality verifications have expired on February. I didn't get any request for verification or any sort of communication after I passed my test. Can I do the criminality verifications on my own and then send them? If yes, may you please let me know the procedure? I am trying to speed things up a bit, if possible. My file is in Mississauga office.

Another question, is it randomly selected to do the verification once it is expired, or everyone has to do that. In that case I probably would wait to see their response.

If I were you, I would take the letter received last time for fingerprints (the letter you received is standard and it will be same letter if you were to receive 2nd request) to the fingerprints agency and ask them to do a new fingerprints result and instead of sending it to IRCC., send it to yourself. Yes it is possible to receive fingerprint result at your own address. I did 2 times for myself and my wife and it worked both times.

Once you get fingerprint results, scan it and email to IRCC Vancouver office explaining that your previous fingerprints expired and out of abundance of caution and in the interest of time, you have done fingerprints yourself as new fingerprints are needed anyway. In the email, ask if you need to courier original fingerprints to Vancouver office and if they say yes then courier it to them.

Do write back to update and good luck.
