Test status changed to completed: 2023/03/14
LPP Complete: June 9th. Please update the tracker.
Okay so no point in calling them basically. I'm worried because my US H1B expires in September because I work cross border, ie. in USA on H1B. I can renew my visa now but it'd be some hassle. If I can get citizenship by then - then I'd not have to renew H1B stamp via embassy, I can just go to border with approved petition and Canadian passport to get my visa stamped so I'm in a bit of dilemma.
Thanks! Any idea when to expect oath invite?
LPP complete today, June 15. Please update the tracker.
Fingers crossed my oath isn't scheduled for July 1-6 since I'll be in NYC. With my luck it will be. LOL
Please note the Notice to Appear is not an invitation as there is no discretion on whether or not to attend.
A request to reschedule a Citizenship Ceremony event is only considered under exceptional circumstances, ie death of an immediate family member, hospitalization of an immediate family member, or other situation of emergency/ critical nature etc. Each request must be made in writing and must be accompanied by the supporting documentation ie death certificates, doctor’s notes, departure and return airline tickets or documentation to support the request etc.
Yes its right. If your trip is a fun trip without any underlying emergency or work related dependency they may not accept your request for reschedule.Yeah I wish you luck. My wife got invite for June 21 for ceremony and we have a trip booked to NYC on same date, we emailed them asking if we can reschedule it. They replied with an angry email, saying below:

I read in some other thread that if you miss ceremony then they consider your citizenship application abandoned and you'd have to apply again. Unless within 30 days you can provide reasoning that aligns with text above!
