I'm glad to announce that, according to the tracking sheet, all of active March applicants have received the test invitations and at least 70% of them were invited to the citizenship oath. Hope the rest (including myself!) finish their journey soon and we all turn this page of our life.

JJGGG, kids do not receive invitation letter and they are not even required in test or oath. Parents take their documents with them.

JJGGG, probably that's better that they have transferred your wife's file to Scarborough, the office in Scarborough is super fast now, in last month so many people have received test and oath invites for Scarborough office.

So finally going to have oath in Ottawa next wk.

Few questions if anybody has been to Oath ceremony at Ottawa.

One of my 10 yrs old is also on application and letter says he can attend the ceremony but i have other one who is 5 and already a canadian citizen by birth so if i could take him if yes if he is allowed to sit with us and there will be no one else with us.As if he has to sit on guest sides,he is too young for that to sit alone on that side

Thanks

S

PS:CIC says that over 14 yrs hv to take oath so it could be re-confirmed by calling call centre

Does anybody knows how long it takes to have an oath letter or further explanations after decision made?? I got a decision made today but no further explanations. I got a fingerprint request exactly 3 months ago and did my test exactly 4 months ago. I started my application on march 23, 2015
