Citizenship test results, Edmonton Office

[Mr lonely20]

Canuto,
There were 72 candidates taking the oath, but may be Edmonton will have more candidates at each ceremony.
Our ceremony was in Saint Albert so may be that's why they were smaller group..
Saint Albert is also part of Edmonton in CIC terms.

I am so grateful to God. My kids and I finally got the oath letters for November. Received the letters exactly 24 months after applying.

The wait was stressful, but it was well worth it.

Best of luck to all who are still waiting! It will happen!

 

[Canuto]

Congratulations! I guess our time will come soon. Let us know how many people were blessed to be Canadian on your oath taking. I'm guessing those are all into these 24 months or more waiting?
Good luck and Godbless

Congratulations Jah-luv!

Unfortunately it seems timelines are getting longer in Edmonton. Hopefully we will see some improvement in the near future.
Good luck to everyone who are still waiting for the citizenship!

Hey Edmonton2011 welcome back. Congratulations again on your Citizenship!
Thanks for uploading the Timeline spreadsheet..

Thanks JCP488!
I am still around even though I do not post as often now. I have been following a few people's journey who are stuck in the queue.

Hi, Any Edmontonians scheduled for exam this month?
I wonder what is going on inside CIC EDMONTON? Other local offices like Mississauga, Windsor, London, are doing the Normal Routine Processing in 8 to 10 months this year.
keep us posted. thanks.

Oh my goodness!! ;D The feeling is pleasantly overwhelming...... My kids and I are finally CANADIAN CITIZENS!! Our oath was scheduled for 0900 to be started at 10:00, but it started a little late. At that point I really didn't care about the wait because the tougher part was over.
The lady who checked us in said there were to be 80 of us, but during the Judge's speech, she made mention of 76 citizens, so I guess some missed it.
Hang in there guys, the road may seem foggy, but believe me, you will GET THERE.

I tried to control my emotions during the ceremony, because it has really been a long journey for me. All thanks to God, the great country Canada, and all of you guys' indirect support!!

 

[Canuto]

Congratulations Jah-luv and to your family as well.

Congratulation Jah-luv!

Winter2012, tomcat85, Wonderboy,

An officemate told me that he has a friend who applied Mar 2012 and got exam schedule next week..
Any update on your application? We all have similar timelines.

I had my citizenship test today in Edmonton. About 25-30 other people were scheduled. Questions were easy and common. I was told that my file is being forwarded to a Citizenship Judge and if everything is alright, then I will get a letter for oath in 2-4 months.

App: 5 Jan, 12; Received: 11 Jan 12; In Process: 30 Oct, 12; Test: 13 Nov 13

Great! Congrats. No one received an RQ? How was the interview? Did the agent go thru every passport stamp?

Thanks Farrous13.

To be honest, I didn't pay attention to what was happening with others. Therefore I am not able to talk about any RQs. Five candidates were being interviewed simultaneously in different booths and in the test room, and I was among the first few of them. The lady was asking for PR card, driving license, landing document and passport(s) first. Then she questioned about my work, recent travel etc. She briefly checked the passport and kept the copies of the biography pages I brought, but didn't go through all the stamps. Then she told me my test score. All of these were in pretty informal manner. It was nice and quick. I was out of there in less than an hour.
