    Thanks bud, And no i don't think they're sending any confirmation or acknowledgement email after receiving signed copy of oath affirmation. I've booked an appointment far away in a small town in rural Ontario for 18th i think. That was the earliest i could get.

    Yeah they said in the invite form that it could take 2-4 weeks but i was wondering why the online status still doesn't change to oath completed. I thought they do the next day once they receive our signed oath form. But let's see

    Hey guys, finally took the oath a couple of days ago, on April 20th. Still haven't seen any update on my tracker. The status for the oath ceremony is still "In Progress". Anyone knows how long does the NGF office generally take to release the Citizenship Certificate? I checked my old ECAS...

    Yeah for sure bud, I'll keep y'all posted. They said we had around 180 people from 48 countries taking the oath with us in that ceremony. So I'm sure it takes time for them to send the certificates but it looks like they have a few clerks working together. hopefully it doesn't take 4 weeks...

    I just received "Notice to Appear Email" for virtual Oath ceremony. But i don't know which city/region is hosting it. My test invite email had " HAM" in the title so i assumed it was Hamilton. This email says "NGF" what's that!

    Hamilton

    Ah i see. Well, We all know how uncertain this is but I'd still suggest you to just wait, I think it'll come by May or at worst by June. You'll still be able to apply for urgent passport. Instead of spending that money on passport renewal. If I'm guessing it right your kids can't hold dual...

    No, my background verification was completed on May 3rd 2021. But i was never asked for fingerprint or biometrics. If that makes a difference in validity period.

    The other day when i read about DM changing back to in progress if background check expires, i was kinda worried. But every now and then I've been re-checking ECAS and I'm sure mine's always stayed DM.
