They told me during the interview it was an urgent application and I would be put on top of the waitlist. I had already received an email earlier confirming it was an urgent application too though. I haven't received an oath invite yet so don't think you can conclude your urgency wasn't...

well 6 days :-) Same for me, also interview on Wednesday 31st (Vancouver office though, just checking up on your progress)

Do you mean they received your application March 24th? Still about 2 weeks (including a long weekend) is still very little time, I don't think that means they rejected it at all. Keep checking ecas. I think the first time I heard from them was after 1.5 month.

I don't think there are direct negative consequences but it would waste resources which slows everyone application down. Don't do it unless you have to and have a valid reason

If you don't need to be a citizen for the job, it's not a reason to apply for urgency, as you can do the job without citizenship. Most jobs don't require citizenship.

They won't be working on Monday either. Today and Monday are federal holidays

There really is no harm in getting it though, I have poor reasons for not having it done

I did not, I took a risk on that. You could call them but I'd go Medical History only, they do not need your diagnoses, in my opinion. I believe it's just extra verification you were present when you said you were.

I had my interview yesterday (March 31st) and decision made this morning, April 1st (urgent processing). Can someone change it in the spreadsheet?

Is that question to me? I figured they accepted it because my application was moving pretty quickly and then later they told me they did I got decision made this morning (that is normal though, the day after interview, not because of urgency)

Like people predicted ecas showed decision made this mornings, day after interview

Oh man that's not good. Did they just not accept your request for urgency then?

@sookie85 are there still no updates for you?

I just had and "passed" my interview this morning. As my application is urgent I should be invited to the next oath, we'll see when that is. Very pleasant immigration officer btw.

Maybe it's more about checking they were actually in Canada as they weren't working? Also if it helps, I have lots of gaps in employment due to not being a citizen (my job requires citizenship to work more than 90 workdays in a year) and being home with my babies. I had EI for 1 year (maternity...

congrats. sucks that I'll just miss that one haha. Have interview on the 31st

yes I am an urgent case and yes I have passed the test already. Sorry it should have said interview. Will correct

Just an update from my side. I was asked to email all pages of my passports (for some reason not matching my eligibility period), including translated stamps. Did that today and just got interview invite, for March 31st.

Just something to consider. It's not uncommon for people to have technical difficulties, either before/during or after. I do think flying in and immediately out is a risky strategy. Does your PR or PR card expire? Can you apply for a new one? You'd have to come back for oath anyway too
