This may help...
If your application stuck at a certain level, you may want to request ATIP note online. People saying it helps to get the application noted and move forward. It worked for me as well and I got DM after 2weeks of ordering and was waiting 5months from test. My advise: order it every 2 months. It is just $5

Hi Guys,

Update on my application..

Oath taking status is now complete dated October 5, 2021
Oath taking date is on October 16, 2021.

Application Received January 21, 2020.



My question is, Since we are a couple whose going to take oath and we have different seat number on the zoom,
Do we need to have seperate computer? log in on different computer on line?


Thank you to all of you here for the help in this specific forum, January 2020 Applicants.

Hello,

Wondering if anyone has a similar timeline as me and is still waiting? Seem like most people on here did their oath ceremony already.

Here is my timeline:

Physical Presence: 1,124
Application: Single
Application Sent: Jan 3, 2020
AOR: March 3, 2020

2nd Test Invite: June 25 - July 15
Took Test: June 29 - 17/20
Test Updated as passed: June 30

Thanks!

How long will I wait between my citizenship test and the ceremony?
Due to COVID-19, we

• cancelled all in-person citizenship ceremonies
• will contact you to schedule a video oath ceremony (virtual citizenship ceremony)

In most cases, the ceremony takes place within three months after you pass the test. We'll give you the results of your test right after you take it.
If your application is non-routine, we may ask you to go to a hearing with a citizenship officer or judge, even after you pass the test. We'll send you a letter after the hearing to let you know:

• what the officer or judge decided
• the date of your ceremony (if your application was approved)

It is worth doing this ? If your application is DM aug 2021 and just waiting for oath? Passed test in March 2021. Jan 2020 applicant. I am worried that my background may go back to in process after the one year mark comes back around

Long journey finally finished.
Oath was done on Oct 05th,
Requested urgent processing and they asked for proof document. I asked because of relocation to the USA and sent a letter from my employer.

Do you know what's considered proof of document for urgent processing? e.g. will a international air ticket bought for 10 days after oath ceremony be considered a valid proof?

 

[imacuser]

Any luck?

i have oath tomorrow and I am going to ask for urgent processing since i have travel plans. Not sure if I should ask for it or just get oath date moved. I’ll have 30 days after the oath before i fly out

Did you try asking? and was travel plans accepted as a valid reason?

As far as I know This is not emergency. They mention it every where that do NOT make travel plans before getting passports. Urgent process reasons are the same as what is on The IRCC website already just google it.
It also depends on the reason for travel. If you have critically ill immediate family member who you need to be with, then that is emergency I believe. You need doctor notes and docs, then you should be good
