am I a Canadian Citizen....Plz Help!!!

[mujeebshah]

I came to Canada in Dec 2000. I stayed in Canada through out. I applied for a citizenship and I was sworn in on April 26, 2006.
But my Canadian Citizenship card has following details:
My date of birth, sex, height
another date (2004-06) and color of eyes

Can anyone tell from this data what is my date of citizenship?

How can I find the exact date of my citizenship?

Is it the date you are sworn in?

I will appreciate the replies.
Thanks
MM

April 26th 2006 is the day you became a citizen. When I did the oath, they told us to remember the date of the oath because that is the date you became a citizen and it is not listed on the citizenship card. It is however listed on the paper format citizenship certificate you probably also received.

My citizenship card has a date 2008-3 but my oath was August 14th 2008. They said that the date on the card is when it was printed although I would not know why they would have printed yours almost 2 years before you were sworn in.
