Citizenship Applications after Bill C-6

[user828]

What papers do you need in practicality at the oath?

I understand passport, original record of landing but do they ask the original application too? coz they did that during interview as well and it was never asked - many said the same - any idea if I should take these?

On the day of citizenship test, do they click pictures there? can we be in casual dress code?

They don't click pictures on the day of the test. Casual is fine.

Better to take it as backup, but extremely likely it won't be checked, just like in the interview.

According to book...
1. there are 308 ridings.. but there are 338 ridings.. how to answer this?
2. the population is 34 million but actual population is around 39 million...

i know the book is old, but I saw sample questions from apnatoronto & yourlibrary for riding containing both 308 & 338 as options...

Just go with what is written on the book , if there is any updates they will change it on the Studying book . Dont get your self confused .

If someone do not have a job then ?

That's alright..if that's what you've stated on your application. They just want to make sure nothing has changed since you applied and if there is a change, they just need the details. Don't worry about it!

Dear Group Members,
I am not a very active member in this forum but wanted to share my timelines. Interestingly I also got Quality Assurance documents and everything went smoothly for me.
I became Canadian citizen on Saturday June/02/2018 and the Oath was at Scarborough office.
Here are my timelines @ Scarborough office.
1. Application received = Oct/20/2017
2. Application In process = Dec/04/2017
3. Quality Assurance request received = Around mid of January 2018.
4. QA docs submitted around Feb/05/2018 (approx)
5. Test Invitation notice sent on Feb/26 /2018
6. Test date = March/21/2018
7. Decision made = April/28/2018
8. Oath invitation received = May/09/2018
9. Oath done @ Scarborough office = June/02/2018.

Everything went smooth and I think Scarborough office is processing things at a very good pace. Have patience and you all are very close to becoming Canadian citizen.
Citizen ceremony almost lasted for 2 hours including the time everyone took picture with the citizenship judge.

Hi all,

my wife landed in August 10, 2014. According to the calculator it confirmed she is eligible for applying for her citizenship.

But in the application it says to provide police clearance if stayed >183 days or over in last 4 years should provide policy clearance. Shouldn't it be last 3 years as per new bill and the form is from 2017?

thanks

No, it's the last 4 years, not 3
