August 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

[tbear]

Language skills, Physical presence & Prohibitions are still in progress status.

Citizenship test & background verification only are completed.

I guess the Vancouver office will not respond unless everything else is completed?

For me when the file location was pending for oath, I got an update I think by the next month for all the other 3 to be completed and oath date was given the next day.
No harm in trying to email them IMO. My file was moved to Vancouver too

Did anyone in this group go through name change process after receiving citizenship certificate? especially splitting one name into two names (no last name in previous passport)?

This is what I am thinking the process could be:

1) receive certificate
2) apply for name change at service Canada.
3) apply for passport with old certificate and name change document (read somewhere new certificate is not mandatory)
4) apply for OCI (India) with old certificate, new passport and name change documents along with old India passport (with single name).

I am not sure if this will work though. Some people in some forums say this worked for them, while some say we need new citizenship certificate.

Anyone with experience around this, please share your thoughts. Thank you.

Oath ceremony(virtual) completed today.

Oath ceremony(virtual) completed today.

Received the citizenship certificates today.. in less than a week after oath ceremony. That was quick. Will go to Service Ontario sometime next week to change name of my wife (split last name into two in place of blank given name). Thank you everyone for giving me company during this 1.5 year long process.

Interesting experience I had: Submitted PR application on my daughter's bday, got PR approved on my wife's bday, got citizenship certificates on my bday. Seems like IRCC likes giving bday gifts.
