    language requirement for citizenship

    No it is not. According to the website, either a degree/diploma/certificate/transcript from post-secondary institution(s) stating the medium of teaching is in English OR a copy of accepted tests such as IELTS or CELPIP.

    urgent grant of citizenship request

    I agree with frange, unless it is one of the reasons listed on the website, please restrain from trying it. I've seen on this forum so many people tried it and none are successful as far as I know. It not only takes resources from an already overload IRCC system, but also causes even more...

    How long of a notice will CIC give for Oath Ceremony?

    In most cases, the first step will be a status change in ECAS to Decision Made, has it changed for you? If yes, this is a good sign and you are most likely in queue for the oath invitation. As mentioned above, it could take a couple weeks, if you are lucky, or months depending on how busy your...

    Address to send citizenship application

    I always thought Canadapost is considered as regular mail and others such as USP/Fedex ect. are considered as couriers. But then other members who had no issues using Canadapost Express service with the courier address so I guess Canadapost can be either regular mail or courier. Good to know! I...

    Citizenship Application Returned Over ONE Missing Checkmark

    I agree, one need to be extra vigilant in checking their application for completeness before submission or risk wasting valuable time once the application gets sent back. You live and you learn I guess.

    Citizenship TEST

    Wow whoever that was wasted so much time and other people opportunities. S/he should have just withdrawn the application instead :( I read somewhere they will invite one back one more time as long as they provide a reason.

    About citizenships test and interview

    I have never been in the same situation so I can only offer my two cents here. What's done is done. As long as he didn't ask you to provide more information, all you can do is wait. Once your status changes to "Decision Made", it's usually a good sign that oath is on the way. Anything before...

    Expedite Oath ? - Citizenship application on DM, need TN Visa

    July 2018 applicants generally still have quite a while to go based on timeline from earlier month applicants. Hope you are lucky and get your oath invite soon. As per other members, obtaining Canada citizenship for US company job is not an acceptable reason for urgent processing. I have seem...

    will IRCC return my application ?

    I cannot comment on using the Dec 2018 form. To answer your other question, just follow the document checklist, not what people say. It is the official document from IRCC which trumps anything else. That is the reason for your confusion due to conflicting information online. As for physical...

    May 2018 - Citizenship Applicants

    For my case, they only checked ID's, passport and PR card. Personally I would add CoPR to the list. To answer your question no PCC. But guys, bring whatever you want in addition to the above to the interview if that makes you feel more at ease. It's better to bring extra than not bring enough.

    NEED HELP: Citizenship Application Declined

    I am not sure if there is any delays between FP request and the actual letter regarding not meeting day requirement (i.e. they sent you FP request before verifying the physical calculator). You responded with the updated physical date calculator to include the days after application submission I...

    Fingerprint request after 17 months...

    I am also one of those who became PR in 2014 and after C6 a lot of PR's, who were suddenly qualified earlier, applied along with me. That might contribute to the late processing of application and shortage of staff from IRCC. Keep in mind, these immigration related applications are not first in...

    NEED HELP: Citizenship Application Declined

    So you decided to keep going with your current application even after receiving the letter from them stating you do not meet the day requirement? What was your response after receiving the letter in January for them to request fingerprint from you? That seemed strange.

    Question 10 and 11

    I am a bit confused reading your post as well. During the two months periods, did you take time off to take care of family member as extended leave? Were you outside of Canada? If so, you are still employed with that company as you stated in question 11. Here you can also list the same company...
