Hi Everyone,

I finally received the invite for the Oath for Sep 1st 2021.

Please find my timelines below :-

Office:- Scarborough
Physical Presence :- 1497 days
Background Check Cleared:- Jan 20 2021
Test Invitation:- April 14 2021
Test Cleared:- April 19th 2021.
Language Skills:- Updated Jul 17th 2021
Physical Presence :- Updated Jul 17th 2021
Prohibitions :- Updated Jul 17th 2021
Oath Scheduled:- Sep 1st 2021.

(@Admin:- Please update the tracker)

It took me exactly 3 months from completion of test date to get the Oath Invitation.

I saw the DM on Sunday and yesterday my tracker was updated with all the other completion status.

The timeline for Oath was posted on the tracker today.

I haven't received any emails yet.

Quick Question:- Any idea if the OATH can be rescheduled and if so how long would it take to get the rescheduled date? I have an emergency and trying to work my timings around the OATH but just checking out what my options are.

I've updated the spreadsheet.

You'll receive an email about a week before the oath date.

Yes, you can re-schedule the oath ceremony but there is no guaranteed timeline as to when you'll rescheduled oath date. Since there is a backlog for oath now, I wouldn't recommend rescheduling it unless it is ABSOLUTELY necessary.

Wish you all the best!

Yeah that's another thing. I will be getting married next month so there's the whole fuss around travel too that's involved.

Another question:- Should i update IRCC and apply for sponsorship (for my future spouse) before or after the OATH ceremony?

Please update the spreadsheet:
Language, Physical, Prohibition has become completed on Jul 19 for me and my spouse. (also exactly 3 months since Test was marked as completed).
Old ECAS also shows Decision Made for both of us.

If you are a PR, you'll have to be present in Canada to apply for spousal sponsorship. If you are a Canadian citizen, you can apply from overseas but you should be able to demonstrate that you and your spouse intend to come back and live in Canada if the spousal sponsorship application is approved.

Its up to you - either is fine, see what suits you best.

My husband got his Decision Made today too and it was almost exactly 3 months after taking the test. He completed the test April 22.
