I live in Gatineau. The office processing my application is Ottawa.

Hello all, I wonder what type of info you look for when you request your files under the Access to Information Act? If it shows: Criminality: Passed Prohibition: Not Started
What type of info that might be helpful in that long report that can tell where is the application in process right now? TIA

Did my oath ceremony today in Halifax. That was an interesting experience.

It was scheduled for 9AM. My family and I left home early to avoid the morning rush hour traffic (roughly 7:20AM). Ended up encountering no traffic and reached the immigration office at 7:40AM. We sat in the car until 8 then went inside at waited some more. One of the immigration officers came to let us know that the registration is at 9AM and the oath ceremony was at 10...*facepalm*. Waited some more....Registration started at 9, they took our PR cards, media consent forms and checked our IDs and COPR. At about 9:45, the officer conducting the ceremony started her preamble (talking about what to expect during the ceremony, etc). Oath ceremony starts promptly at 10AM...there was a bit of talking, then the judge was introduced. Judged talked for about 5-10 minutes. We recited the oath, then they called us up 1 by 1 to receive our certificates and sign another form signalling our completion of the oath. There was 50 of us so that took a while. After that was done, there was a bit more talking. We were congratulated, we then sang the national anthem. That was basically it, judge and RCMP officer walked out. In total, the ceremony was roughly 40-45 minutes. People lined up to take a picture with the judge but I didn't too care about that. So I left.

Journey is done for me finally. Best of luck to everyone else. Next stop for me is applying for my passport

Thanks for your detailed oath ceremony experience. What did happen to your PR card? Did they punch or take it or you still have it?
