July 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[ab-ee-pnp]

They ask for COPR in oath email but in the ceremony only PR card and a photo id is needed. IMM 1000 is needed for those who did landing before July 2022. New PR applicants don't need it.

Thanks man!
Bro you are a trooper! Are you just community member like me or involved in the forum! Great job! Appreciate it man!

My office is Mississauga and I got the interview invitation for Nov 27th at the Scarborough office. Test completed on Oct 13th and LPP still in progress. My husband and I have travelled outside Canada quite often so we think that may be why. I spoke with another July applicant who got the interview and he had an extensive travel history too. Is that the case for you too?

I was out of the country for 2 months this year, I'm not sure if that's the reason

Hi guys, I just received an email invite for an interview, I completed my test on October 4th, my office is Niagara Falls but the invite is from Kitchener.
does anyone have an idea of how they pick who to invite for interviews and what to expect during the interview? Thanks

Did they mark your test completed in the portal yet? Did the email invite say if it was about the test?

Hi! This morning I got an update and I was scheduled for an interview with an officer on November 27th. Does anyone have experience with interviews or what are they for? In my case, I guess it’s because I travelled quite a few times outside Canada, could that be?

My office is Mississauga and my BG and Citizenship test are completed.

Hi, "citizenship test are completed" - did you mean you completed the test, or the test is marked complete in the tracker? Thanks!

yes test has been marked as completed. It was marked completed on Oct 6th

 

[gamzoog]

yes test has been marked as completed. It was marked completed on Oct 6th

Thanks for the reply. In the interview email, did they say the interview was because of the test (like, to take the test again)? Or is it for a general interview? I wonder how does IRCC determine who gets interview. Looking forward to your response. Thanks and good luck!

the interview letter says "INVITATION TO A VIDEO INTERVIEW WITH A CITIZENSHIP OFFICIAL AND
VERIFICATION OF IDENTITY/DOCUMENTS" I will put in an update after I complete the interview

Hi! Both - I’ve taken my test on October 13th and it was marked completed on Oct 18th with date of Oct 16th. My guess is that they want to check my two passports (one expired) since I travelled outside Canada quite a few times in the past 5 years.

Did they ask for full passport scan previously?

They asked for a full passport scan of all passports I have had in the past 5 years in the same email. They asked me to send that 2 days before the interview date.

I sent the full passport scan on Saturday via email and I saw a ghost update today
