Dear November applicants, My journey to the Canadian citizenship has finally come to an end. This forum has been unbelievably helpful during this tough process. Thank you guys! It is time for a new chapter in my life. I will be stopping by occasionally to check on the forum and well... good...

Just got my passport. None of what you listed are valid Canadian travel documents. I have put NO in this section. The examples of Canadian travel documents are: canadian passport, certificate of identity or refugee travel document. Hope this helps!

Hey there, couple of things: -During the interview they only asked for my original CORP, passport and IDs -The officer had the entire application I submitted, so if there is anything you sent to them, they'll have it good luck!

Took 2 months for me. Just did the oath!

Got the notice to appear for the oath in the mail ;D

Thanks Haybu12, I haven't had my oath yet, so just curious why they said a week. On the cic website it says 2 business days. Congrats on becoming Canadian citizen!

Curious - why do you have to wait for a week?

Mary, try to stay positive and look at the bright side - you applied in December and had your test in August. its barely 9 months. I know people who applied 4-5 years ago and it took them 2.5 years to get the citizenship (without RQs). And it was normal at the time. So to see citizenship...

- proof of canadian citizenship - Your original citizenship certificate given to you during the ceremony. It will be returned to you with your passport - 2 photos - Read the instructions carefully and make sure the guarantor signs the back of one photo - document to support your ID - Submit...

HI Mary, Was your test in July or August? (07/08?) If it was in August then you shouldn't worry. My test was in July and the Decision Made status updated 3 weeks after. But i've seen people on this site getting their DM 6 weeks afterwords too.

Personal experience: for test invitation I received mail invite one week prior to the test, e-cas update 24 hours prior to the test. So I wouldn't recommend to rely on e-cas and check your mail regularly. cheers!

Same for me! September 23rd!!! Wo-hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sirine1, its in my signature ;)

Not yet.... waiting (im)patiently.... You?

Hi there, sorry to hear about your oath invite, but I am sure cic will reschedule it soon. Stay positive. Quick question - did your ecas not update with the oath date prior to the date? Or did you just didn't have the opportunity to check it? Thank you.

Hi there, I am not really good with spreadsheets, but my timeline is as following: applied first week of November, In process last week of March, test was mid July. Local office Ottawa. Hope this helps. OrangeCup

My Hgic Yan, I am re-posting someone's else response to the same question as you asked, it seems to be accurate. Most usually, that "Decision Made" means that your application has been accepted and you're in queue for an oath invitation. But I guess there's no real way to tell until you get...

Well, lets hope nothing like RQ will happen... And that we all will get oath invitations very soon :)

Wow Messi, Really happy for you! It is strange a bit indeed as I had my test almost a month prior to yours (July15) and there are also people from June who hasn't got their invites yet, so I am a bit confused with how this works...Hopefully it'll come soon :) But regardless, congratulations...

My Ngoc Yan, you are going to be just fine. If you've read the book few times then the exam is easy. I am sure you will be in and out of the room in less than 10 mins. Just read the questions carefully and don't panic :) Good luck!
