Too the oath today at Scarborough. The whole ceremony took 1 hr from start to finish. Warm experience. Also received the pass with free access to all the Parks and museums for one year. Really nice gesture from the CIC.

All the very best to future Canadians for your application.

Hi everyone,
Does the test invite come via email or in the mail?
Please you reply would be greatly appreciated.
Usually it’s email. But I was chosen ( I believe randomly) for a special ceremony. In this case they send mails.

Hi Team

Congratulations. Will you please share about cheking of departure and arrival back to Canada during the eligibility period of 5 years. My interview is on 5th Feb and I am worried that in two trips stamping in passport for departure from Toronto or arrival not found, however, I have either photocopy of boarding pass or chekin bag printed receipts showing full details are with me. Pl share you experience in your interview.
Thanks

Hi There, my experience below hope this helps someone

At the interview,
1. I was asked what i do, why my wife was not applying for citizenship, i told the officer, she is still not eligible,
2. Then verified my physical presence calculator, line by line with the passports, i had 3 of them, the office had all my entries already ticked off, which means they would have already checked through CBSA and found them to be correct, the officer then verified all the departures, by checking the stamps of the destination airport on all exits.
3. No Further questions was asked, it was quick,
4. Was asked to sign on the white form, informing all information is correct, and the prohibitions form, which you have to fill and sign before the interview.
5. My test score was 20/20 that was good to know.
6. I was then told, to wait to her on final review.
7. Got the DM Next day (luckily)

I dont think you need to worry, about, the stamps, at Toronto, as they dont stamp most of the times, but take what you have in case they ask, it will be good to show, you will be ok.

Hope this helps.

Hi.

Good news is I was invited to the citizenship test this morning. Test is scheduled for Feb 12th.

Bad news is the test invitation is under my former name, I have changed my name and had already attached the name change certificate to my documents at the time of applying. not sure if this is normal, I don't want my citizenship certificate or passport in my former name. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Thanks

I think you should be fine. Send them an email, but still go for your oath ceremony. I remember the judge mentioning that if there is any changes to be made on your certificate, you
should make sure to tender it before leaving the venue that day.

Congratulations
