My ECAS status changed to COMPLETE today. Does this mean I can go ahead with my passport application? New line added "You became a Canadian citizen on August 21, 2019."

I attended the Oath ceremony in Scarborough today at 10 am and finally I am proudly a Canadian Citizen now. It was a wonderful journey to reach here. There were 89 new citizens originally from 39 different countries. It took about 40-45 mins to complete the ceremony. Thanks everyone and best...

They issued multiple entry visa with expiry date set to one month before the expiration date in both passports. So, basically 8 and half years for both.

There is a line added in ECAS as well.

Thank you. :)

Hi All, I just received the Oath invitation via email moments ago Oath Date: August 21, 9:30 am Location: 325 Milner Ave, Scarborough. Finally after waiting for so long since Apr 4 (decision made that day), got the invite. Thank you all for all the support. Good luck to all those that are...

Finally got Decision Made yesterday April 4, 2019 after 2 weeks of submitting fingerprint. Please update accordingly. FYI, in my case I received fingerprint request 3 days after I passed my test on March 15.

UPDATE: I passed my test on March 15 and was waiting for DM. But, I received fingerprint request today. Please update the spreadsheet to reflect this. And can someone let me know where to get the fingerprints done near Yonge/Eglinton area? Thanks in advance.

Went for the test about an hour ago. There were about 40 people in the room. Talked to few and most of them they were Aug Sep applicants. Only few were Oct. Scored 20/20 and the interviewer told me I am an October applicant based on my signature date in the form. They also informed Scarborough...

Regular app.

@bellaluna and @Buletruck Thanks for you help earlier and i am happy to announce that after revising the same application for 3 weeks (3 months first time), i just got the passport request for my parents TRV. :) I am very happy and thanks to you guys for suggestions. Cheers. ;)

Thanks. I will follow your suggestions.

Thanks Bellaluna. I did include my mother's employment letter and salary info. The only thing that i think put off the officer is the length of stay. I am thinking of telling them my parents will stay for 3 weeks, redo a couple of documents and also have a return ticket for both of them with...

Thanks Buletruck for the reply. I will reduce the period of visit to 3 weeks. My confusion is whether the visa will have an expiry date of 3 weeks stamped on their passport or they can stay for few more weeks? My parents have travel history but not within last 5 years. It was more than 10...

I got a letter of refusal in my online application for Visitor Visa for my parents. The following is the part of response letter where they pointed out the reason. The points marked in RED below are the ones which were checked in the letter. You have not satisfied me that you would leave...

If ECAS shows DM but gckey says BGC not started, there is no need to worry. GCKEY doesn't work as we expect. Faced the same situation last week, but got PPR after 3 days and gckey still show old data. DM is always a good sign. Wait few days for PPR.

Thanks. For additional documents, they didn't ask for any other than those i sent with the application. GCKEY says The additional documents you provided are being reviewed. I think we cannot completely trust GCKEY status now. It is acting wierd.
