Are you with Scarborough office & had you asked for urgent oath?
No, its Vancouver. I didn't ask for urgent oath. I started to get these updates only after I filled out the web form last week.

Hey team! Hoping for some advice. Scarborough office.


Hey everyone! Got my update -
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1200
Application: Solo Application
sent: March 23rd, 2021 (Online)
AOR - 18th August 2021
Invitation to online test - 3rd November 2021
Online test - Completed 10th November tracker updated
Language skills, BG verification, Prohibitions - Completed Jan 10th
Citizenship Ceremony - This is still pending since January 10th. Is this something I will just have to keep waiting for? Anyone got an expected timeline?

My PR runs out In September so just wondering whether I should start the process of getting the card renewed or just hope for the best for this ceremony to hurry up.

No, hopefully your oath will be completed before PR card expires.
 
Hi, so where can I find the email address for my local MP. If there's any website, could anyone please share it?
 
By the way, I searched for my local MP and luckily Marco Mendicino, who was the former immigration minister, seems to be my local MP. So I was wondering if there could be any added benefit to my application in terms of knowing the application status and processing speed?
 
Hey Everyone.

Quick question: how long did it take for you to receive your Citizenship certificate after the Oath and how was it sent to you (Canada Post, Purolator, etc)?

Cheers
 
Are there any March 2021 paper applicants here who didn’t get test invite yet? I’ve only had BC completed last Sept and nothing else afterwards. Thanks.
Me! I'm in the same boat as you!
 
Hey team, I had my oath ceremony over a week ago and it still shows "in progress" on my tracker. Has anyone experienced this? I'm starting to think I made a mistake in the oath form I sent over.
My wife had her oath ceremony March 4th and it was closed March 7th. Not sure if I'm missing something here.
 
Finally got a series of update on my application:

Not sure if I'd mentioned my entire timeline before (it was pretty erratic), so here it is:

Application Submitted: March 31st, 2021(Online)
AOR: Aug 24, 2021 (took a while, but..)
Background: November 5th, 2021
Test Date: November 19th, 2021
Test Status Update: November 22nd, 2021
Radio silence ever since....and then:
Prohibition, Physical and Language: March 22nd, 2022
Oath Update: March 23rd, 2022
Oath Scheduled: April 14th, 2022

My timeline, it seemed to me, was quite different from several people on this forum. I almost gave up on getting a timely response, since I am with Scarborough office and they're infamous for being delayed. I read Strongfaith42 recommend someone to raise a webform or call, as it might shuffle up things a bit. And I guess shuffle it did, I reluctantly raised a webform dated March 21st, without expecting a response, just penned down my pent up frustration over the wait (nicely if I may add). And voila! a day later I see an update, and then the final one.

Wishing everyone the very best of luck, we're all in this together which has always made the waiting period much bearable. All my people with Scarborough Office (still waiting) - sending positive vibes your way, we ran out of luck with this one - raise a webform maybe, we're clocking in/clocked already the 12 month mark, so kind of in the right to ask questions.

Congratulations on being scheduled for your Oath. I too have been reluctant to send a webform, but reading through these forums, it seems it can't hurt especially if it is nicely worded. As I am less known for my diplomacy skills and more straight talking than most people, I was wondering if you could give me some tips on what exactly to say in web form to give IRCC a gentle nudge to get my citizenship application moving along. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
 
The web forms agents have no power to do anything on your file other than send your request to the processing office, and you won't get an update the next day just because of a web form because their response times are now over a month.

Everyone's timeline is different but i can take 2 - 4 weeks and it arrives via Canada Post.
 
Hi everyone, I have a small query. I see in the online tracker that my Oath Ceremony is scheduled for April 14th but I have not got an email with the details. Does that come after a few days?

Regards,
