Anyone from Montreal got online test invite and/or oath ceremony

[Amirfarhad]

Yeah Montreal office will send you an invite for oath. Your file is no longer in Vancouver, I know this because although I’m based out of Toronto, from test I’m getting everything handled by Montreal.

Thans,How long did it take when they replied your email?

115 is a good number. Do they put English and French applicants in the same ceremony?

I just saw someone else reported 35. 115 ~ 3x that number. I am not sure why they host 35 people, while many are waiting for the oath? They must implement a shared pool for the virtual oath. Anyone can can take it, regardless where the judge is. It doesn't make much sense to limit participants to only one office.

Because Montreal office has 0 applicants waiting for years, and other offices are offloading to them to progress their applicants.

I have been waiting for more than 2 years and according to corporate records there are quite of them waiting for more than 3 years.

No the french are given special priority like a red carpet and they get the original category1 passport.

Hi, just wondering if you have received an oath invite

I finally have DM!! Quite excited now, waiting for oath

Is it possible to pick up the citizenship certificate after the oath in Montreal?

I would love to do that and have heard tell of people doing it, but it's been purely anecdotal to date.

I can't find any postings here. Where did you hear about it?

Yes English and French are both in the same ceremony , since the ceremony itself was held bilingual .

Not yet. DM was about 3 months ago. Still waiting and waiting ...

I asked because someone applied in French in BC, and they called him to tell him that they were waiting to have enough people who applied in French to schedule them for oath! The agents who do the registration must be bilingual also, since it's a federal service, not sure why they were told that!

Welcome back. You seem to have forgotten the forums. That comment was meant as sarcasm (I thought it was obvious). I have been waiting for 2 years myself. It's puzzling why the Montreal office handles other offices' affairs.
