March 2024- Citizenship Application

[forw.jane]

Very happy to report that after about 5 weeks from the last status update, the tracker is now showing that the oath date has been scheduled for mid August. I haven't received the actual invite yet but hope to get it in the next couple of days. Assuming that it will be virtual.

This will give me just enough time to obtain the passport for my trip in September (have to leave by Sep 12th at the latest). I checked for appointments online and the earliest one that was offered was Sep 10th which is too late. Worst case scenario I know is I can go to the Victoria street office in Toronto and queue up. Any advice on a better workaround? I don't mind traveling anywhere within Toronto or even GTA for an appointment in the week of Aug 19.

Good luck to everyone still waiting

Walkin is better option. You can check the wait times online.

Virtual oath ceremony was yesterday. After it was over I IMMEDIATELY signed my oath affirmation, scanned it, and emailed it to them. It was supposed to take up to 5 days...I received my e-cert this morning. (They send a link to the portal and you can find it there.) After your oath, my advice is to NOT wait to send in that form.

Thanks.

I have read that if the oath ceremony is rescheduled upon the applicant's request, IRRC takes months to set a new date. Anyway, we will take our chances.

Hey, I just pass my citizenship test I received an email mentioning my result and it says it might take months before seeing the update, how long does it usually take to update ?
I think I was a bit too enthusiast and thought the update would be real-time

Hi I asked my wife's ceremony (originally scheduled for Aug 8th as well) to be postponed as she is not in Canada now. Earlier (when I did my citizenship 2 years ago) when your ceremony was postponed, you had to send them email to let them know you are back in the country and send the boarding passes.

But now I am surprised that they have marked my wife as unavailable till Sep 20 (the day she is back) and told "Your ceremony will be rescheduled after your unavailability expires. You will receive a new invitation by email about one week before the event."

Is this same in your case ? So we need not contact IRCC proactively after the person arrives in Canada anymore ?

We are also waiting for the oath email. Scheduled in the portal for 20 Aug.

Out of four, two applicants will be traveling abroad on 30 Aug; we will ask for a postponement, too; the other two will take oath virtual or in person no information yet.

In the request for postponement, we will share their ticket that was purchased almost a month ago,

Any additional advice?

In our case, test results were officially confirmed in three/four days.
