Can I bring family member to oath ceremony if they're applying to citizenship?

[ramo11]

Hello everyone,

My oath ceremony is tomorrow and there is a document for accompanying persons and interpreters. It says that the accompanying person must not have a citizenship application in progress.

My mom, who has an application in progress, wants to come with me as a guest? Is she not allowed to do so?

Thanks!

Well if they told you you can't than you can't

I'm just double checking since they used "accompanying person" in this document vs "guest" which they asked to bring 2 max.

The accompanying person would be someone that helps you with the process and CIC agents, for example for old people who don't speak english of french.
Anyone can be a guest, so your mom is most welcome to your ceremony.

Congrats and welcome to the canadian family !!

Case closed I guess
