It might be a good idea to make an ATIP request. It takes 30 days to receive the information.

Hi elprof: Did you receive pre-test RQ?

In most routine cases, oath is scheduled within no more than 6 months after the test. Have you requested ATIP?

If the CIC is satisfied with everything, then it could be pretty quick. Otherwise, it is anyone's guess. Since it is already an RQ case, the decision/ oath date could be a bit before 35-month time period, particularly if they decide that a hearing with the citizenship judge is required. I...

If the CIC is not satisfied, then unfortunately, they might require a hearing with the citizenship judge? If so, then that might take 12-18 months to schedule the hearing.

It appears from my own experience that RQ review could take upto one year. Also, just because I got RQ, it took 4 months after CJ's approval - compared to non-RQ applicants being given oath invite right on the day of the oath (for next week oath). All in all, the RQ cost me 16-18 months.

Hi bravepeople, Thanks a lot for your great contribution. Need to update my time line in your matrix: Oath date: October 18, 2014. Thanks once again.

I believe, Mississauga office is very fast, so that's good news for you. Congrats.

Thanks a lot vinaypuri. No, my local office was always St. Clair, transferred to Scarborough for oath. It was a pre-test RQ. Wishing you too an oath invite very soon.

Thanks once again to everyone for the kind wishes. I sincerely hope that everyone else waiting for the oath letters would receive them very soon. In the meanwhile, from my own experience, I must say that we have to bide our time, otherwise it might cause a lot of anxiety for us in this game of...

Thanks a lot amazing21. If the officer was satisfied at the time of the interview (after the test), then you may not be required to provide anything. Just need to bide your time. Thanks again for kind wishes. It has been a really long journey!

Great News!!! Just received the invite for the entire family to take oath of citizenship on Saturday October 18th At Scarborough. That would be nearly 34 months from the date we sent the application. After a lot of waiting, and investment of time and energy (especially for responding to the RQ)...

Pre-test RQ applications are approved by the CIC and the citizenship judge within 3 months from the test, if the CIC is satisfied with the RQ response. As regards post-test RQ, I know somebody who is waiting since more than 2 years after submission of RQ.

Non-disclosure of required information might be interpreted as 'willful concealment'. Therefore, if I was in your place, I would make full disclosure.

Congratulations. My application was approved in early June 2014, and the file has been transferred to Scarborough CIC a few days thereafter. Still waiting for the oath to be scheduled.

I think we can celebrate only after the oath ceremony. :)

Applied in January 2012. RQ in November 2012. Test March 2014. Approved and ceremony ready June 2014. Had applied with over 1200 physical days.

Hi Kdta, My application was approved in June 2014 first week, and transferred to Scarborough (ceremony ready) in June second week. Still waiting for oath invite. It is already six months after the test. So, nobody knows how long it takes. Wishing you an oath invitation very soon.

Hi All, I had my test in March 2014 (Pre-test RQ). ATIP report shows that the citizenship judge approved the application and it was granted in June 2014. Till date, I am waiting for the invite for the oath ceremony.
