    Rescheduling Oath Ceremony

    there was 3 months between my initial oath date and my new date in Montreal, CIC updated my case only 2 weeks before my new date to tell me I was rescheduled. Look at your test-to-oath delay and that should be mostly the same new delay for your new oath date.

    Citizenship Experience: what benefits do you see other than travel?

    I don't expect any change in my daily life now that I have a Canadian passport. I can vote, except that I think the big plus is you can call the Canadian embassy when you are outside of Canada and lost your passport, they will answer you ! I had to go in France for family stuff last year and...

    Missed my oath ceremony.

    No nothing special, Just another date showing in the web and email. If your are honest with them, they will reschedule you more or less quickly depending of how busy the office will you are related is. Today we were 360 people from 62 countries at my oath ceremony. It took 3 hours.
