Hi, Today my wife and I finally became a citizen....yay! My Oath Ceremony was in Calgary and was scheduled for 1:30pm. We turned up at 12:50pm and were almost last in a long line into the citizenship rooms. As we waited a lady came round and took our signed form giving media consent. A man...

Congratulations. In my oath letter , and in my test and interview, they all state I must bring my IMM5292 along with my permanent resident card.

Applied June 2012, in process Jan 2013. Took and passed test in Calgary Feb 21 2014, was notified Feb 24 of test on March 26/2014.

The employmenty question was the only question raised and I had not had a chnage of employment though my wife had and she explained this. I think Chakrab asnwered it very well and that is regarding the ties and unusal travel habits ie/living in another coutnry whilst waiting. Be honest with...

Now thats an idea.....tuxedo all the way!

Def a nice crisp suit. I was watching some of the ceremonies on you tube and everyone was wearing suits. Congratulations to you too!

I did not get an RQ so can't answer questions about that but anything to do with the process please feel free to ask away. I have my Oath next week after taking my test Feb 21, in Calgary, and sent in the application originally June/2012. I had lots of missing stamps in my passport and my wife...

I had 4 missing stamps for me and 5 for my wife, and one trip didnt show on CBSA report for my wife. The CIC officer didnt ask me anything about the missing stamps. Got oath 4 days after test. My advice, dont mention it but if it comes up have the CBSA documents available.

I personally wouldnt mention it at all. Has no impact on the residence calculations as after application and any dates travelled after the application where not mentioned in my interview. I spent over 3 weeks in UK wihtout telling anyone and got oath date no problem.

I didn't study and think I done pretty good, answered all the questions. Results come next week.

Hi, Thanks guys. Yes I checked out the tests online and indeed it's definitely not a test just to see if you can speak English. It is much more about grammar, ideas, IQ, processing speed, imagination and ability to perform under pressure. I can only imagine trying to do this if English wasn't...

I need to do IELTS to become a licensed immigration consultant and I am an English native speaker. Do you think I need to study or would my probability of passing be higher as its my first language, as I consider myself to be fairly intellectual so would like to think I can read, listen, write...

Hi, Did you receive RQ before the test? If so I wouldnt worry as my firend took his exam before you and still hasnt heard and he had RQ pre test. I think it must go through different channels to be looked at and is holding things up. Also dont worry about that form. I signed it the same as you...

Its interesting that I and 2 friends in town all applied for citizneship at the same Calgary Office. Friend 1 and 2 sent their applicatins in Jan 2011 to Calgary. Friend 1 got an RQ and friend 2 got it returned for incompleted application. I submitted mine through Calgary also in June 2012...

Yes sadly this is normal timeline for RQ. My friend in the same town as me applied through Calgary in January 2011. He rec'd pre test RQ . He just had is test Feb 14/2014 and still has no word of Oath. I submitted mine through calgary in June 2012 and didnt receive RQ and had test Feb 21/2014...

They said Mississauga in their posts...Ontario. I've heard new applications in Mississauga are getting completed in under 9 months....nice.

I've heard it can take 3-6 months. Last year it stopped in Calgary and was taking around 3-4 months. I think they go through spells where they speed through a city and then move on to the next one. Also I guess it depends on how many judges they have too. Fingers crossed you get yours soon ;)

I have faith they are speeding up the process. Things seem to be moving a bit quicker so hopefully you might get a completion sooner....maybe by Christmas ;)

This is my timeline for Calgary: 21 months 1.We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on June 4, 2012. 2.We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on June 4, 2012. Please consider delays in...
