Congratulations to your wife!!!

When did you submit your UP request? Did you only submit through webform? I submitted mine through webform and then sent the same information to my local processing IRCC office, the email address provided in the test invitation, 5 days later I called IRCC to confirm if they had received the request. Also you can try to send the same information to your MP and to the Minister@cic.gc.ca, don't know if the Minister email is monitored but it won't hurt.

You need to provide enough supporting documentation about the UP.

Hope this helps.

My understanding is that you will be asked if you need your Citizenship certificate with urgency at the end of the Oath and they will expedite the shipment of it. After that you can apply for urgent passport, which could be ready the next day, the only thing is that you need to pay for that, I think it is $110 more, a passport is $160 if you want it to be valid for 10 years.

Hi guys, how long does the test status change from In progress to completed after writing and passing the online test?
If it is a family application, will the status change at the same time even if the man and the wife wrote the test at different days say 5 days apart?

Awesome! Thank you!

I'm guessing I'll get an email on further details on the Oath Taking closer to the date?

It varies by the local office processing your application, it could take from 1 day to a month to be updated. It is going to be updated based on the date each of you completed the test.

Yes, you will receive the Oath invite email 1 or 2 weeks before the Oath ceremony date with instructions and Zoom connection information.
