Congrats on your oath! The timing would be a bit tight for you. From my experience, I got my e-certificate on the 3rd day after the oath (4th is the oath; got it on the 6th morning). Then I applied for the passport with express pick-up. The staff didn't check the flight ticket and asked to pick...

Hi there! I actually ended up getting my e-certificate and passport done just in time before my trip. I think it should be okay for you to apply for the special authorization overseas as long as you've received the e-certificate. The only thing I was worried about before was that the border...

Mine is MC. I suggest calling the IRCC to check if your form has been attached to your profile. When I called on Wed, they said my form was attached but not reviewed yet. They assured me that the 2-5 day countdown starts from when the form is attached, not when it's sent. Interestingly, I got...

I've the same oath this Monday (Dec. 4) and received mine on Wed morning too. Who's your clerk?

I got my e-certificate downloaded this morning (2 hours after the call) and off to apply for the passport. Here's my final timeline, hope that helps anyone with visioning the processing time for the Mississauga office. Good luck y'all!! Type: Online application Location: Toronto, ON...

I took the same oath on Dec. 4 for Mississauga, and I sent the signed form immediately right after the ceremony. I called this morning, and the agent told me that the processing office received my form yesterday (Dec. 5) and it's attached to my profile but not yet reviewed. Turns out, that the...

Hi everyone, I have a trip coming up a week right after my potential oath date. I hold a passport from a visa-free country (dual citizenship) and I'm wondering if it's okay to apply for the special authorization as stated on the govt. website...

I have the same thought too – I prefer an in-person ceremony instead of an online one. I honestly wouldn't mind rescheduling the ceremony to a later date if it can be an option.

Same here, my oath date is Dec. 4 as well! Not sure if it's in-person or virtual – waiting for the instructions & email. I'm travelling out of Canada for my best friend's wedding during Christmas. Considering the Mississauga office is infamously slow, I may reschedule it for after my trip -...

Mine is the Mississauga one and I've prepared it to be slow processing in this office.

Updates – Does anyone have a similar timeline to mine? I guess the next step would just be waiting for LPP to be completed. Type: Online application Location: Toronto, ON Application: Single Physical Presence Days: 1,171 Application sent: August 24, 2023 AOR: October 10 Able to create tracker...

I completed the test yesterday (Oct. 31) and also got the 2 GUs when I checked my tracker after. Is that normal? I wasn't sure if the GUs were before/once after I finished the test.

Updates Scheduled for test: October 27 (I received the test invite email on the same day too) Time window: October 30 – November 19

In the same boat - I have my background completed on Oct. 18 but have not yet received any GU or test invite (It's still "Not Started" on the tracker). Not sure if I should be worried or not.

GU #1: October 18 Background verification completed: October 18 (Tracker updated on Oct 20)

Got a GU this morning (Oct 18). Does anyone know what this potentially will be?

I was able to create the tracker this morning.

Finally got my AOR this morning after the long weekend - AOR: Oct 10 I haven't tried the tracker yet but will do it in a few days.
