You'll be fine dude! Good luck with your application. Yeah, meet with your MP, but they won't do much. Just make a reverse calendar and worry less.

Became a Canadian Citizen yesterday; the oath Ceremony was very straight forward.
I wish to thank everyone for all the support that we provide ourselves in this forum, some of us made it through the wait because of that. And thanks to the Liberal Party of Canada, if it were the Conservatives, most of us would have been eligible to apply by next year lol. The Liberals have my support in next year's election. ;)

Hey January applicants!

A new tracking spreadsheet has been created for 2018:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UVvKb4Sem00uOCyB2kTeM2_AofgT_8b4uTJyBh9pXdg/edit?usp=sharing

If you'd like to monitor your cohort and update for everyone please let me know and I'll grant you access. If you just want to be added to the sheet, post your information in this forum.

Hey,

Thank you for creating the tracker! I'm an August applicant and I would like to help updating August status.

Thanks :).
Don't also forget that the Bill that the Liberals passed last year eliminated the Harper second class citizen stigma that was hanging over the head of every dual citizen in this country. If most have, I still have not forgotten; that is why I am grateful to the Liberal Party of Canada.

Let not go political on this forum, there are plenty of politics forum you guys can head over to instead. Liberals are worse than cancer!
Just sharing my opinion on the matter hence you guys started it!!!
I just cannot forget the second class citizenship thing that the Cons tried to pull lol, they are worse.
