February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

[WATCHTOWA]

Got Oath Scheduled for Nov-10; Nov I have a situation, travel tkts booked for Nov18.

1) Anyone got success in re-scheduling Oath ? Prepone /Postpone ?

2) How soon can I apply for Passport after Oath and How long does it take for urgent processing ?

I don’t see any reason to reschedule your oath ceremony. Since you planned to travel using a different passport, you should go ahead and complete the oath as scheduled. Once you return, you can proceed with applying for a Canadian passport.

PR status /Card will be gone the day we take Oath; and we need some document (travel/Passport) to enter canada, and time gap is so less that it will become stress situation which is not worth.

Spoke to an IRCC agent, sharing what they said for reference to others in the same situation:
1) Since the date mentioned is Nov-10, expect an email invitation with the details and options by Oct 30-31, 2025.
2) Nov-10 date with no email invitation is still tentative; So, the Agent took the dates that we are not available for Oath to update in the file. This will help/inform the officer to select a new event date accordingly.

On a side note: I have also raised a web form for the same.

Hope to see the revised date soon.

Please can you share the IRCC number you called?

Hi all, My children and I did our oath ceremony virtually on Thursday 25th Sep, we submitted our oath form immediately and got email that our ecertificate is ready to be downloaded, I used the same email for our applications. I was able to download my certificate but unable to download my children's certificates, it says your certificate is not ready, check back in 2-5days. Can someone guide me on what to do please? maybe I am doing it wrong. I also tried to sign up with another email address for my children but it won't let me because we all got the same code.
