I know the call center is not very helpful, but did you call them to check? I can guess their answer, but please let us know if you call them and what they say. Good luck.

ImageOfLight's comment is very correct and that's what I heard from authorities when I checked.

that's answer they usually give, the background check is just an excuse, It all depends on the agent handling your case. I have not left the country for more than 10 years and there is not much to check, but still waiting for the test, so it cannot be the background check, it's usually just...

still waiting for the test invite, applied October 18 last year.

October 17. I called them and they said you have to wait 12 months and then call back if we don't contact you which is ridiculous because the call center agents don't know anything and can only check if there is a note in the application. Basically no matter how long after submitting your...

That's crazy, it's crazy how they manage, many of people that applied in October 2017 are citizens now and some like us still waiting for the test invite. They need to manage this better, everybody should have a similar timeline and all that background check stuff is bs. They don't distribute...

Same with me, same time line and no matter what stage, when I call the call center they say wait 12 months.

Yes, very frustrating and unfair, the same for me. I had a horrible experience with them for PR and now looks like the same bs for citizenship. Good luck to all of us.

I tried to call CIC several times, but always says my call cannot get through and it ends the call automatically. Do you recommend a specific time or number to call?

I don't know how many more are in this situation, but I am too. I think our application is stuck with a slow useless agent. I think we have to wait 12 months and see if things will move, I don't know anymore, but it very unfair and frustrating to see that so many people that applied weeks after...

I'm in the same situation. Honestly, for my AOR, and IP, I wen to the excel tracked, found the largest day and then added 100 days to it to get my numbers, it's ridiculous how they handle cases. But, here is a timeline by CIC for unlucky people that slow unintelligent agents are handling their...

I think it all depends on the agent that handles your case, some are nice and fast and some other slow and not very smart. Honestly, there shouldn't be this much gap between applicants' timelines. I'm in the same situation, they took 5 months to give me IP and now another 5 month waiting for a...

My situation is similar too and my passport is expiring soon, I'm not sure if I should just want or renew my passport?

Thank you so much, this is great, I was really stressed about it because my current passport is expiring soon. Thanks my friend.

Thanks for the info. My question is that does the current passport (the last one) need to be valid or ok if it's expired on the day of interview? Thanks.

OK, thanks a lot for the information and hopefully they will give you the oath date soon :) One more question, does the passport need to be valid (not expired) or an expired passport ok too? Thanks.

Hi everyone, I have question for people who did the test and oath; Do they ask for a passport during the interview or for oath? Thanks a lot.

It's confusing, sometimes they email sometimes they mail. Good luck my friend :)

Did you get email yet? :) How may days after e-cas? Thanks.

Did you receive an email too or just e-cas was updated?
