You must've forgotten that question, because its in the application (Question 17). I don't think they ask you, they confirm your option selected- maybe at that point you can say you want an e-certificate and they will send you the email with the instructions? I would call as soon as possible...

With (or before) the oath ceremony email, you get another email asking you to set up your profile to download the ecertificate. This is just to keep it ready- because you can only truly download the ecertificate AFTER a successfull oath ceremony. https://portal-portail.apps.cic.gc.ca 1 business...

Just a day late than predicted, but anyways received it today. It is the older design :) Applied : Sept 8th Received by mail : Sept 20th

This is a big decision if you do not have the luxury of dual citizenship and not one to be taken lightly. I wish you well and hope you figure it out.

Wait a min- I remember you! You were 'that' person in our monthly thread demanding speedy service for citizenship even though all our processing was still really fast with only Vancouver officer being slightly faster. After all that drama and complaining, you're getting cold feet now???

This is what I've heard too. Waiting for the passport to apply :( Anyone recently visit the Vancouver BLS? I'm curious about walk in times because there are no appointments available.

Actually, I was reading on reddit that if you are desperate, this is a valid strategy to guarantee an appointment the next day. If you need expedited/urgent processing and have proof of it, you should go at 3pm of that day, they will say they can't get you in before 4pm and offer you a chance to...

Thank you guys lol

Vancouver walk-in application on Hastings. Arrived at 9.30 am, no wait whatsover. In and out, in under 10 mins total. Despite mentioning travel in October, they refused any expedited passport application (need to travel in September to be offered that apparently). Earliest I was offered was week...

Do they return the passport in an invalidated condition or is it gone forever lol (wondering if I should make one last scan of it)

Even I was a bit worried, but they have chat enabled at the admission screen and the IRCC webhost kept posting messages every few mins for people to be patient. I was also number of #130th or something, so I wasn't surprised it took 30 mins.

Sorry if this is a very obvious question, but for booking appointment of Passport Surrender, the service Type to select at appointment booking is : Passport or OCI? I'm getting a date 3 weeks from now, so I don't want to get it wrong.

This is why I don't like GUs, it does not guarantee any change. I have a GU for 23rd August and nothing has changed in my profile whatsoever.

The email address I provided is from the oath ceremony invitation. I would try this if you are all green and waiting for oath.

It seems the tracker updates 1 business day later. At least it did for me. WST-CitizenshipClient-Notification@cic.gc.ca

It will come soon for you guys *fingers crossed*- especially Vancouver office processing. Even in the April thread, they seem to be moving quick. I had a technical issue in my application, they resolved it and moved forward fairly quick. I was hoping so? Sorry, its my first oath ceremony haha.

Actually this inconveniences me a lot. I have travel plans for November-December. So now I have to receive citizenship certificate, apply for a new passport, receive the passport, then apply for two ETAs (already lost money on 1 travel visa I applied on my Indian passport which will be...
