hi, it should be the email that they sent you your test invite from. I responded to that one for the Ottawa office. It took around 3-4 weeks to receive a response. I've mailed twice since and received no reply (8 weeks ago and last week).

Honestly, I just want the whole thing over. I'm tired of making career and vacation decisions around making sure I'm available to attend an oath ceremony and then go through what seems to be a painful passport process if you even get sent your certificate. After this terrible process and a...

The thing that made me hesitate is that it says to use it if you're over the processing time and when I checked it said 27 months and we're on 25 so I fear it'll just antagonize them further. When we applied it was 6-7 months as the processing time. Did you submit one?

Hi, so 12 weeks ago an agent responded to my email about when my oath ceremony would be and said that I'd be called in 6-10 weeks. Unfortunately I knew it wasn't going to happen and didn't believe them. Is there any point in my submitting a web form or is it pointless? It's 25 months since my...

You will have issues entering Canada without a Canadian passport as a Canadian citizen. Sometimes this is easily resolved with a border agent but seeing the way things are at airports I would avoid any issues personally and just cancel my trip or else reschedule your oath ceremony for after...

Ahhh I thought maybe everything had been updated already apart from oath. So maybe the prohibitions will be updated next (in a few days) which in effect means decision made. The oath is a bit of a wild card and depends on where you are. I'm in Ottawa and have been waiting over 8 months since...

As far as I can work out that ghost update means they put you in a queue for the oath ceremony. You won't see an actual update until they have you scheduled for a specific date and then you'll get an email the week of the ceremony. Something like that...

Happy Canada Day everyone who is still waiting. This is my third since mailing my application. I have to admit I have a bit of a sour taste due to the way this has dragged on and I'm sure others feel the same.

Just noticed a ghost update on June 20 so maybe someone updated something regarding Oath. Not really sure. Will update once I know

Great question. I passed my test over a year ago there, got a DM 8 months ago. Had massive effects on my work and travel plans etc. Just really shocking isn't it?

don't worry, it comes the week of the oath normally.

Did you email the office using the address she received her test invite from? Just for perspective I am waiting one year since I passed my test and around 7 months since everything was set to completed and a decision was made.

Hi, There's no congratulations here. I don't have an oath, just a response saying I might get invited in the next 2-3 months! By ID what do you mean? I just wrote to the same address they sent me the test invite from and it was signed by IRCC Ottawa.

Response from IRCC Ottawa to my email: Good day, Thank you for following up on your citizenship application with IRCC. I have sent your request to the ceremony team. However note that it might take up to 6-10 weeks to get an invitation for oath ceremony. Please continue to monitor your email...

Your question about education attainment in Canada should have an option for outside Canada. I have no degree in Canada but plenty from outside for example.

You won't get an email until the week of the ceremony. Congrats.

passed test june 15th updated june 22. Everything else completed November 2. So been waiting over 6 months for the oath...

I emailed ottawa at the address they sent my test invite and received an automated response that said my asking for an update was delaying everyone and to wait... That was 3 weeks ago. I signed the petition above also... I'm not sure what else to do really

Have you checked the old tracker to see if it's moved to DM? I did my test in June '21 and all my other stuff was updated on Nov 2 but no word on oath yet... hopefully soon!

looks like it. must be a combination of Afghanistan, Ukraine, COVID etc. :)
