Hi, congratulations. I am also scheduled for oath on Jan 18, but I haven't received an email with instructions yet. Have you received it?
Hi there,

Not yet. Generally they send the email with the all details 1-2 weeks before the oath. I will post here when I get it.

Congrats! You made it!
I mailed my passport application 2 weeks ago from the US (delivered 12.09). Still no news...
I guess they're unhappy that I provided the US address as my home address but gave my Quebec DL as my ID. Maybe they already started the citizenship revocation procedure... :)

Marry Christmas!
Please do keep us posted on progress; I'm sure you're not the first or the last to do this, so it would be good to know for others contemplating the same thing.. Best of luck and hope you get it soon (although the USPS is notoriously slow at even the best of times and even worse during the holidays.)

Online status update on our file today.. another entry stating Oath is on 13th Jan.. guess, they have moved it from 5th Jan to 13th Jan. Anyone in similar case in Mississauga office?

Somebody on the forum wrote that they use the Canada Post Priority Worldwide service when the passport is sent to the US. Priority Worldwide is handled by FedEx in the US.

Called today. The agent could not find my application. After a long verification process, he told me that my year of birth was entered incorrectly in their database. The passport is not printed yet, I should expect it on or around Jan 12th... The show goes on... :eek:

Good gravy, where's the "headdesk" emoji when you need it?!

At any rate, glad to hear that they sorted out the misunderstanding.
