September 2020 - Citizenship Applicants

[nerd]

For those who passed the exam...

When you took the photo of your ID, was the image and info flipped horizontally (Like this —> siht ekiL)?

i heard different scenarios. Not sure I need to set up my website a certain way. Will this make you redo the test?

No the picture itself was NOT flipped, but the response of my webcam was a mirror image, ie if I move the ID left <-- it would move right --> and so on. It took me a while to center it properly. Or maybe it was my nerves! haha!

In any event, once you take the picture, they will show it to you can you can verify it is not flipped before approving it.

best of luck!

from what I read online, seems like they send the emails 1-2 days before the test dates.

Congrats man, that's Decision Made. Check your ECAS (even if it doesn't say Decision Made, it is and might be updated later).

Congrats to every noticing a progress in their applications and hopefully soon every one will be ready for the oath. How long do you think we will wait to get the oath ceremony date?? And would be sent in an email, mail or phone call??

The workflow is the same. First, you'll see the update on the status dashboard. You'll receive an email only about 1 week from the date of the ceremony.

How long we'll wait can't be answered (at least not now). The test -> DM timelines I'm seeing here are pretty quick so I wouldn't be surprised if we see oath invitations being sent out in the next couple of months.

You are right. I just checked eCAS and it does say "Decision Made". Even though the new tool still said "In Progress". yay!
