that's courageous and probably the right thing to do! I know one of my friend never made an account to the tracker, it took him 8 months end to end but he had a peace of mind - acted only when received emails for Test and Oath!
I’m sorry to hear that but you are absolutely smart to only check in every few days. I want to start checking once a week because at this point it’s becoming an obsession lol.
I was trying to understand this. So security clearance takes time and what about criminal check? Do they need FP too?
i am just curious coz of my case
I am in London ON, but some how my application is being processed with Niagara Office.
Every case is different , for me yes criminality took a week after submitting finger print but security it is been four month not cleared it , but as I said every case is different other cases both cleared at the same time , some cases even not requested finger print and cleared both at the same time
I am thinking is it possible to just to the local police and give fingerprints without the ircc letter?
As I said not every case required finger print only the one who got email requested finger print and even the police office wouldn’t do it for you unless you have the email
Hello, from an update today at Niagara office forum, an applicant with AOR 17-January & LPP Completed 18-July has received his Oath invite today (tracker update), so I’d expect that you will receive yours by next week maximum if not tomorrow or Saturday! Please keep us posted as my dates are so close to yours.
Nope you're good (having them cut in four pieces while the IRCC's agent's watching you is a firm enough statement
)
Hello Guys, I am sharing my experience regarding minor oath invitation and ceremony attendance.
I applied for me and my son (minor-12years) together as family via paper application. I received my oath invitation email last week on 3rd Aug and oath was scheduled for 10th Aug (Today). I did not received oath invitation for my son with me and I assumed that he doesn't need to receive oath invitation because I mentioned in application form that he will not attend ceremony. Today morning, I have attended my oath ceremony. During registration process, once my registration/verification/PR card cutting was done, I asked IRCC official about my son's registration/verification. She checked in to system and tried to confirm with clerk but she did not get response. After that she said my son is not scheduled for oath with me so she can not register him and I can not cut his PR card but she will try to get response from clerk during ceremony and will let me know if there is some confusion. But ceremony was over and she did not get back to me. Now its my headache to get my son's ceremony done. I am not sure if anyone had same experience before but is weird that minor did not receive oath invitation with parent. Just a heads up guys, if you come across same issue, please act in advance before your oath and confirm with IRCC about minor's missing invitation.
