February 2023 - Citizenship Applications
- Thread starter forw.jane
- Start date
Same here, test completed on May 3 and everything else is "in progress". I too got excited about this GU every other person got on Oct 27 thinking finally some change but looks like it is a system update. All the best to everyone waiting eagerly for status complete and oat ceremony invites.
I have an exact timeline as youMy test completed on May 3, 2023. Everything else is "in progress" since
Mine was complete may 7, 2023. Waiting for LPP just like you all. Hopefully progress soon.
Seems like they prioritize the September applications to lower the average processing time. Making fake data! Not a single LPP on January and February. Pathetic
Hi,
I've got a question. My application includes me and my 4.5-year-old son. We're scheduled for a virtual ceremony on November 9, 2023, but here's the catch: we're currently overseas.
Now, we've received two separate emails, each with its own seat number - one for me and one for my son. My confusion is this: can I, as a parent, travel to Canada and represent both of us during the ceremony, or does my little one also need to make the journey to Canada. Do he have to be physically present in Canada, even if he doesn't attend the ceremony.?
I'd really appreciate it if someone could clear this up for me. Thanks a bunch!

Hi, you have to be physically in Canada in order take a ceremony, no matter in-person/virtual one. Same is stated even in your invitation letter and that includes children/minors as well.
Point 5 in Ceremony invitation: "Inside Canada: By participating in this video oath ceremony, you confirm that you, and any family
members associated to your application, will be taking the Oath of citizenship in Canada. If you are
not currently in Canada, contact us as soon as possible in order for us to reschedule your ceremony.
Indicate “Outside Canada – Oath of citizenship” in the subject line of the email. Within the text of your
email, include your name, application number and planned date of return to Canada."
If the due date on GCMS notes is January 27th, 2024. Does this mean that is the time when the Citizenship Oath will occur?
No, it's not your Oath date. It's their internal deadline but who knows if they are trying to reach it out
