Brother i gave my test on june 7 my everything change to complete on August 3rd and decision made on same day did u have any guess when i will recive my oath
Based on the current oath timelines of mid/late 2020 applicants, it seems to me that you might receive your oath sometime in the December 2021 to March 2022 window. I hope you receive it at the earliest though.

Good luck.

1. Yes.
2. They made me cut the PR card in 4 pieces on camera.
3. I sent them the Affirmation of Oath form and they mailed the citizenship certificate. Since mine was Urgent Processing application, citizenship application was also expedited. I received my citizenship certificate yesterday.
4. Not sure but you can check with the clerk at the ceremony and ask them if they'll mail the certificate to a US address.

I have made a detailed post about my Virtual oath ceremony experience, in case you are interested =>

Great. Thank you. From oath until you got the citizenship certificate in the mail how long did it take?

Cheers.

For me, it arrived the next day because it was expedited (because it was urgent processing). But usually, it can take between a week to a month to get the citizenship certificate.

Thank you. Sorry one more question, was it mailed by Canada Post or a Courrier?

I'm asking this because Canada Post has an option for mail forwarding for the people who move to U.S., and I can use this option (it's paid option).

Thanks again. I read your oath experience. You did a great job of explaining things in details. Cheers.

For me, they sent it via Purolator.

Your entry in the spreadsheet is incomplete. Could you please provide the date you received the test invite email and the date you took the test? Thanks.

"Decision Made" means that the application is approved. Oath ceremony will remain "Not started" until you get an oath notification on the dashboard. Could take a couple of months AFAIK.

Good luck!
Aug 9 - Test "In progress"
Aug 13 - Test Passed
Aug 17 - Test results updated to "Completed"
Aug 20 - Everything else set to "Completed"
Citizenship Ceremony - "Not started" yet
Now hoping to get the oath email soon:)

Hi,

Applied from Ottawa in July 2020 and completed my test in mid June 2021. After my profile was updated to test completed on June 23, I've heard nothing. Looking over the other Ottawa applicants in other months I would expect to get a DM in the next month. Our background checks completed almost the exact same day. Because of the timelines I would say you will be called to your test soon and once you've passed they'll probably update everything to DM so that they don't have to refund your application fee. If you are concerned or there were some complexities in your application, I would call them as you should have been called for a test by now in my opinion.
