By post I believe. Not sure. Sort of worried about that - the mailbox in my condo is so small hope it doesn't fold lol

Folded or unfolded doesnt matter I just hope they send me invite soon and throw that certificate. Lol. Never waited this long for anything in life. Crazy

I've updated the spreadsheet. Please post an update once you receive the oath invite email. Thanks.

Sigh! Delay at every step :-(

I know right. And for the folks from India who will probably apply for OCI, add another 2 months lol (although OCI is not technically part of this process, but still it is something most of us will apply for)

+ additional costs: Canadian Passport: $160, OCI: $350

I dread OCI process and dealing with BLS :-(.

I hope things go smoothly.

I have found this website that details the OCI process well - how to apply both OCI and Surrender together in one appointment. the OCI fees listed there are outdated, but the process is still same

Here's a more recent post =>

Ignore the fees but the process remains the same. I believe this process applies to Toronto Jurisdiction.

+ the Surrender of Indian Citizenship charge of $130

This might confuse other applicants here.

Let's discuss OCI further in the thread below, it would be more appropriate.

So basically they are asking to submit full profile of the candidate for OCI (including Canadian passport and citizen certificate also. I wonder why both)

Congrats.
CIC checks on candidates if they are desperately checking status multiple times a day or not. If they are not desperately checking online status then they send DM and Oath fast. Good that you knew that. Congrats.

Hahaha! Thank you. And yes, certainly seems that way! Updates come faster when we forget about checking online status

I was invited to the online test yesterday. Can it be updated, please? Thanks

Hi I got citizenship test invite but when I tried to do the test the link that they are suppose to send me so I can move from step 4-5 doesn’t come to my email, it’s not in my junk or trash files, they only have one email for me on file so o can’t understand why the email isn’t coming does anyone else has this problem?
