Yes, you need all the usual documents required for new passport application: 2 passport photos (1 signed by guarantor), complete application, citizenship certificate, a document to support identity - all the usual stuff as it calls out on the application instructions online. For urgent...

Yes, you receive your citizenship certificate at your oath ceremony - they hand it to you right there. They also advise that you need to wait 2 business days before applying for a passport. However, I read in these forums, that as long as your status in ECAS says "Complete" you can go and...

If it helps, ECAS changed to complete the day after my oath. I went immediately to a Passport Canada office and applied for urgent processing. My passport will be ready for pickup tomorrow, 2 days after the oath.

My journey is complete! Took my oath and received my certificate yesterday. Please update me in the spreadsheet - line 93 id: svirac Location: Hamilton App.Type: Family (2) Physical Presence Days: 1598 App Sent: July 4, 2018 App Recd: July 6, 2018 AOR: Sept 12, 2018 In Process: Sept 24, 2018...

Had my interview and test in Hamilton on Thursday, September 19. Test was easy - 20/20 score. Interview was very relaxed and fairly quick. Just made a photocopy of my OHIP card and let me know the oath would likely be mid October or into November sometime.

I think your processing time expectations are a bit off. I’m also being processed in Hamilton. My application was received July 6, 2018, in process Sept 24, 2018. I just got a test invite for Sept 19, 2019. So it was 14 months from when they received my application until my test date. Just be...

Thanks! Yes took longer than I'd hoped. Hopefully it moves quicker now after the test. Also, it seems you added a line. I actually already exist on the spreadsheet on row 94. You can just delete that old row (had a typo in the user id) and roll with the new one you created at the bottom...

Not sure what you mean - you may be looking at the 2019 spreadsheet. I'm looking at the 2018 spreadsheet. Very doubtful that any 2019 applicants have had any movement in Hamilton yet. Don't expect to be processed until 2020 if you applied in 2019. It looks in general it's 12+ months...

Sure - if you look at the Location by Month tab you can see the Hamilton timeline averages. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UVvKb4Sem00uOCyB2kTeM2_AofgT_8b4uTJyBh9pXdg/edit?usp=sharing For instance for people that applied in February 2018, it took 381 days on average. Here's a couple...

Here's my timeline below. I applied in July 2018. It took over 1 year (almost 14 months) to get a test invite. Hamilton is not very fast. Location: Hamilton App.Type: Family (2 persons) Physical Presence Days: 1597.5 App Sent: July 4th, 2018 App Received: July 6th, 2018 AOR: September 12th...

Hamilton is one of the slowest in the GTA, actually. I applied July 6, 2018 and still waiting for test invite, whereas many July 2018 applicants at the Mississauga and Scarborough offices have received test invites or already taken their tests.

Hamilton is slow. If it's any consolation, I applied in July 2018 and still no test invite with Hamilton office.

Hi all, Since I've been a long-time lurker on these forums, I thought I'd share my most recent story and the knowledge that I just gained as a result. I am a US Citizen that became a PR in Sept 2013. My PR card expired on Nov 7, 2018. I applied for my PR Card renewal back in April 2018. As...

5 years prior to application signature date. Renewing your PR card doesn't make you "lose" any days towards your physical presence requirement. They keep adding up.
