@nivaan5, Thank you for sharing all the details on surrendering Indian passport and getting the Entry Visa. As you mentioned earlier on this thread, OCI can be applied after staying in India on the Entry Visa(X1) for 6 months. Have you already applied for OCI and received it? Was the...

Application closed on 16-May-2022. Three more Canadians :)

It's a tricky situation. For us, the clerk asked if the minor son is with us and we said he is in the next room(actually he was). We said he is watching TV with his younger brother(Born Canadian), and wouldn't be attending the oath. I was asked to cut his PR card, which I did in front of the...

Received Oath invite today 02-May-2022, for the ceremony on 06-May-2022. Just 3 days notice.

Yes, this is normal. Minor's application status remains as In Progress even at the time of oath.

Question regarding applying for OCI while being in India. I am expecting the citizenship oath invite any time soon. My plan is to take the oath in Canada and travel to India immediately after the oath, since I am employed in India. I will be using Indian passport for this travel. I understand...

Question about status of minor application. Me and my wife took tests around mid 2021 and our status changed to Decision Made in ECAS on Dec 17th, 2021. All except oath are shown as Complete in the tracker. But for our minor son, the ECAS still shows In Progress and tracker shows everything...

Following this thread, as I am waiting for the Oath invite and there is high likelihood that I will be outside Canada, when the oath invitation comes. A friend of mine working in the US travelled back to Canada to attend his oath. During the oath he informed them that he need to return to his...

1) Is it mandatory to be inside Canada for the online oath? Is it explicitly mentioned in the oath invitation letters? 2) Is there a possibility to reschedule the oath just in case we need more time to arrive in Canada to attend the same? 3) Will I be asked to destroy the PR card at the time of...

Thanks. Background verification was completed on Jan 20, 2021, as per the tracker.

Passed the Online test on 09-Jun and test status got updated to Completed in the tracker on 10-Jun. :)

Got the same reply from IRCC today. "Thank you for your email. IRCC is not providing exemption to physical presence in Canada for taking online test. Please advise IRCC about your availability to take the test when you are physically back in Canada. We will endeavor to re-schedule you at a later...

Not yet

Was thinking about going through the US, but its no longer possible since US closed doors for non US citizens. The only to way to reach Canada before May 24th is to take visa and travel to another country, take RT-PCR test, stay there until the results are available and then fly to Canada. The...
