Hello, good people.

Is it normal that after more than three months after passing the test, the status has not changed and we have not received the invitation to the oath ceremony?

e-CAS (as of today):
  1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on July 25, 2018.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on October 3, 2018.
  3. We started processing your application on October 16, 2018.
  4. We sent you a notice on December 6, 2018 to appear and write the citizenship test on January 8, 2019 at 10:15 AM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us


Very normal. Montreal is slow with oath ceremony. If you status says decision made, it's just about time. I think you should have your oath in May. Montreal usually gives you just two weeks notice.

Hope this helps.
 
Montreal is super super slow!!! My husband had his test in Nov 19th and Decision Made the next day. No news of the ceremony after 5 months!!! This is ridiculous!!!
 
Thanks! FYI I also had finger printing requested on the 12 Feb (after my test!). I submitted that the next day

I remember when u posted that finger printing requested after ur test!.
 
Hey everyone ,

I had my citizenship test on April the 10th and I passed the test . I had all questions correct and the officer told me to expect an oath date within 3 months! I'm very excited.

That’s quite long. You should fill in a webform and ask them to schedule the ceremony. 5 months is way too long.

Hey @iceberge how have you been ? That's some awesome news .congratulations on being closer to becoming a Canadian citizen . Maybe your oath ceremony date will land on the 1st of July. Which should be pretty interesting.

Thnaks Goldiedawn, yah guess it would be around that time or may be late since Scarborough office is moving.
 
Had my citizenship ceremony last week just in time for the provincial elections in Alberta. Feels great to fulfil my civil duties.

I am also a GTA applicant waiting for the test (in process since September 21st 2018)
So , I have requested for the electronic notes for my case.

I thought my case would be with the Eglinton office (or some office in Toronto)
Instead it is with Mississauga office.

The following is the status

CLEARANCE REQUEST(S)
RCMP Y

What can be implied from this..?
Would it take some more time before the test invite..?

Why is the Language still in "Not Started" as the required language criteria (mark sheets) have already been sent with the application itself..?
Hi
How did you requested this note.
Who to contact for this ?

Regards,
Sharat Joshi
 
Is GTA not moving at all this month? I felt like there is no way for us to finish by even the end of July, 2019. What's your impression so far, guys?
