Hi, I resigned from my job while my application was in process and it was not updated. Do you think I would be a problem if I told them about it during the interview?

I dont think this will be problem at all because they dont provide you any chance to update them while the application is in process so you can update them at the time of interview and get a letter from your new employer just in case.

For Family, the interview after the citizenship is going to be together or each individual being interviewed separately? The reason I'm asking is that because I'm going to carry all supporting docs for the family.

My online status shows the following:

"We sent you a notice on May 18, 2018 to appear and take the oath of citizenship at the citizenship ceremony to be held on June 18, 2018 at 12:30 PM. The notice you will receive will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us."

What does this mean? My test date is June 18th, 2018. Does this mean I will have test and oath ceremony at the same day?

Is it a standard online update?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

From what you are writing it means that your Oath date is on June 18. Some cities have test and Oath on same date. I would suggest call the call centre and enquire.

I never got my test status updated online. Below is what i have online:

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on December 29, 2017.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on February 19, 2018.
3. We started processing your application on March 22, 2018.
4. We sent you a notice on May 18, 2018 to appear and take the oath of citizenship at the citizenship ceremony to be held on June 18, 2018 at 12:30 PM. The notice you will receive will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment.

Yes, i will try calling the call center for some clarification. I am from Edmonton where usually the tests and oaths are not on the same date. Or maybe IRCC just made a mistake by updating the oath status instead of test status because my test is on 18th June @ 12.30pm.
