I certainly will keep you all in my thougts. We were 100 people there at the ceremony (not all had written the test the same day on Monday, I think). None of us could believe we'd get the oath the same day. It felt like they really wanted to make things go smoothly. Definitely read the Discovery...

Woohoo. Had the test today in Calgary and they held the citizenship ceremony right after, as most or all of us were from out of town. The interview took about 1 min and they just asked for PR card and drivers license. Lots of happy faces ;-). 11 year journey coming to an end. So glad for this forum.

Got my test invite, too, finally! Test Invite letter: Dec 12 Test/Interview Date: January 7th, 2019 Location: Calgary Guess I'll be reading Canadian history over the holidays... thanks for updating!

Hello Admin Please update my status: Change to 'in process' July 30, 2018 Thanks!

I received AOR today (July 10). Thanks for updating!

Hi all, wondering if anyone can help me here. I sent in my citizenship application in May, but have not received AOR yet. Moved province a couple weeks ago, and while I paid for mail forward, I'm not sure if I'd get gvt mail in case they send back the application, if it needs a signature. Should...

Hello, would you please add my info? App sent: May 2, 2018 App delivered: May 7, 2018 City: Canmore Type: Single Physical presence days: 1475 Good luck everyone. Can't wait till the "apply for xxx visa" saga is finally over!

Congrats mngantusa! They do seem quite speedy in Paris. It took nearly 3 weeks for the letter to be sent to Canada from Paris in my case, may be faster for you if you're in Europe. Just a large envelope in normal mail. Good luck! Happy new year!

Happy New Year everybody! Wishing for speedy completion of everyone's application! My own quest is over for now, I drove to the border yesterday and landed. No questions asked, they just looked at my passport and letter for 10 minutes (and their own records, I assume) and made me sign the COPR...

Our wedding was 2 friends in our living room, no family, no dresses, no photographs. We had planned a little ceremony outside, but as the date was in the middle of June floods in Alberta this year, we even had to find a new commissioner last-minute (literally), as ours was stuck in another town...

Thread isn't exactly active, but new Paris outland applicants may still end up on it (like I did a couple months ago). Just received my COPR (confirmation of permanent residency) in the mail. It's been very quick for me: 4 months. Application sent: Aug 8th 2013 Application received: Aug 13th...

update: COPR came in the mail today!!! Took 2 weeks from Paris, but it's here finally. So happy. Will make an appointment with CIC office tomorrow (or go to border, if it takes too long...) Really hoping that yours is coming soon, too, especially for those couples who have been separated for a...

Hi Isildur Yes, through Paris. Right now it's 4 months (sent in application beginning of August). We sent in everything, medicals, payed the fees upfront, etc, so there would not be any delays. Maybe we didn't send in a ton of evidence for our relationship, because we didn't even think that...

Decision made!!! Checked my status today (because I'm impatient and because they've updated me on a Saturday last time, not a Tuesday). I guess that means good news? Hope the letter arrives FAST!!! So excited! Paris would have contacted me, if there was an issue?

Can't believe it neither, since my application in Paris doesn't seem to move at all! :-( Patience is not my forte! And that despite being one of the lucky ones who already live and work in Canada and I get to see my spouse every day!

Hello everybody Here's my information (I applied in August - as spouse, outland. I live in Canada on a temporary work permit): USERNAME : workluck Visa Office : Paris Medicals Done : July 2013 Application Sent : August 8 2013 Application received ...

Hi Diego k I just got an email yesterday from Paris saying CIC received my application on August 18th. (The online status change and letter that my spouse's sponsorship was approved came in mid september). When did you actually send in your application to Mississauga, was that in September, or...

After one refused LMO, which took 7 or 8 weeks to come back, we tried again. We handed in a solid application this time, around March 5th (addressed all of HRSDC's complaints), and my employer phoned in a couple times, and requested expedited treatment by fax (as the project essentially needed...
