My five cents. In person ceremony is a very nice, heart-warming event! The virtual one is a joke.

My status shows oath August 1st, 2022. Also no letter. That’s very weird!..

Please note that if you will be absent from Canada for extended period of time, your PR card renewal will be non-routine. This means that they will approve (if RO is good) it and send to a local office for pickup in person. When exactly they email you to pick it up, nobody knows. Could be in a...

1) So, you received renewed PR card from the Canadian embassy in the US? No. I did not receive it because became a citizen before that. 2) Which address you mentioned in the PR Card Renewal Application? I gave my friends' addresses in Canada. The application was signed in the US. 3) Your case...

Yes, I also think that they processed my application due to covid. I applied in March 2021, the border with the US was still closed at that time…

I applied from the US, sent all the documents for PR renewal in the USPS envelop. They processed my application, I received AOR. The card was approved and sent to the local office for pickup in Aug 2021 (found out from GCMS notes). Never received an invitation. Became a citizen in Nov 2021.

Immediately after the ceremony (oath if more specific). On your certificate it will be written that you became citizen on 14th.

Do status request: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/rs-vd/stat-eng.aspx When I did it second time, I received an email with FedEx tracking number…

Try to apply for citizenship before you start moving in and out of Canada frequently. There is a chance that you will have a Residency Questioner if you are out of the country very often during your eligibility period. Your presence in Canada after you apply is not important...

So, my citizenship application brother (sister) :), my journey is also over. The passport was delivered today to my US address. Turnaround time is aprx. a month by mail. You and I were psychologically connected during the entire process. ;)I’m glad that the outcome was equally good for both of...

Guys, my passport was delivered on Jan 11th to my US address by FedEx. The passport is very good looking! Worth waiting a bit… :) Looks like I’m a real Canadien now!.. I’m very happy! :) Good luck, everyone!

I got a similar timeline. Appl. delivered on Dec 9th (mailed from the US). Card charged on Dec 14th. I sent a status request online two weeks after the application was delivered. Received an email that they cannot find my application in their system. Immediately called them after that. The...

Good call! Corrected. ;)

Called today. The agent could not find my application. After a long verification process, he told me that my year of birth was entered incorrectly in their database. The passport is not printed yet, I should expect it on or around Jan 12th... The show goes on... :eek:

Decided to call today after I'd received an email that they cannot find my application. The agent could not find my application either. After a long verification process, he found that they entered my year of birth in their database incorrectly. The show goes on...

Guarantor writes your name and signs the photo. There are special lines for this. The rest is already present on the stamp. Everything fits perfectly. https://canadapassporthelp.ca/2009/11/12/canadian-passport-photo-for-u-s-residents/

Somebody on the forum wrote that they use the Canada Post Priority Worldwide service when the passport is sent to the US. Priority Worldwide is handled by FedEx in the US.

I saw your timeline on the spreadsheet. Honestly, I used you as a reference. I thought that my citizenship processing would be over soon after yours... Looks like IRCC uses its own coordinate system though... I applied Sep 2019, oath mid-Nov 2021.

Congrats! You made it! I mailed my passport application 2 weeks ago from the US (delivered 12.09). Still no news... I guess they're unhappy that I provided the US address as my home address but gave my Quebec DL as my ID. Maybe they already started the citizenship revocation procedure... :)...
