How many times could one apply to postpone the oath ceremony? Thanks.
There's no official number. I suppose you can postpone it multiple times.

However, I would recommend that you think it through before you postpone and only resort to that option if and only if you can't be ABSOLUTELY be present for oath in Canada. Given the current backlog, there is no telling when you'll get the oath invitation the next time.

My tracker hasn't been updated since April 23rd which was a few days after I did my test! What are they exactly doing??! We should have done our oath already!

April 23rd is when the dashboard went live (and it is extremely likely that no changes were done to your application on April 23rd).

It is unfortunate that you've been waiting for more than 2 years now.

Hopefully, you see some progress soon.

Wish you the best!

It is funny!!! They said they are working on applications they received May 19th and 25, 2019!!!! our applications are more than a month before this date and have not heard anything yet!!! apparently, in the IRC calendar May comes before April :)

Not only that. Many 2020 applicants are done with the oath.
Its CIC's system which will behave erratic just like CIC as cic officers never ever give any simple thought to give importance to complete older applications - no common sense.

Did they ask for further information about your abscesses from Canada? I know that is what is holding mine up, the review of my dates away from Canada. Just curious since my days are very similar.

Please update spreadsheet:
Test Date - June 11
Test Date - June 18

All sections are reading as completed for me and my wife (updated July 13). Any clue when we could get the Oath Invite?

Thank you

Updated!

Congrats, that's Decision Made.

Oath timeline greatly varies between applicants. Give it a couple of months (could happen sooner) and you might get an oath date.

Wish you all the very best!
