GoCanada1985 you are right. My wife had exam on May 28 and she is still waiting for oath. There was nothing wrong in file and she had no issue with file. she applied in March 2014.
Hi Kumark, When did you actually send the initial application? In one of your last post you mentioned you applied in Jan 2014 and here you mentioned you applied in March 2014. But eitherways, I am sure you will get your oath letter soon. Today, one of my friend got his oath letter for 18th august, He took his test on July 15. But he applied in November 2013. So it seems they are clearing the backlogs that's why the oath invitations are "generally" following the date of initial application rather than the test date.

A week may be, keep checking your ecas it should update when the letter is issued and when to appear for the oath. And you should receive the letter 2-3 days (in most cases) after the online status updates.

Hi Guys,

I just have a question; does "Decision Made" mean the citizenship application is approved?

Thanks
It just means that the next step of the application is the Oath Invitation and ceremony. In average for EDM, it seems that between the Test Date and the Oath Letter Submission/Update, the time span is about three weeks.

Cheers !!!

All (original) supporting documents that you submitted with the application. They say on the test invite to bring all passports even the expired ones.
