Hello guys, my ceremony has been scheduled on 27 July but I have not received any ceremony letter/Instruction yet. Does someone knows how long can be taken to receive ceremony letter? Should I contact them or waiting ? Thanks
You'll receive an email about a week before the ceremony.

Could you please provide the date your application went to "Decision Made" status on ECAS ? This is the same day when prohibitions was set to "Completed" on the New Citizenship status Dashboard .

Also, please post an update once you receive the oath email.

Congrats and good luck!

This morning my online tracker has been updated, Citizenship Oath is scheduled for August 4th. Haven't received an email with the instructions yet, will probably get it close to the date! :)
Hi,
First of all congratulations on your citizenship. I think we have the same status. I have been received a notice on 15 Jun by email shows my oath ceremony scheduled on 27 July but I have not received any ceremony letter yet. Do you have any idea why? May I Wait more time or I should contact them? Who should I contact?

Thank you for your help and time.

Hi Everyone, Both me and my wife have completed our citizenship exams in past 2-3 weeks and we received a request letter from CIC this morning for my wife. They asked for all scanned pages of the passport. Could you please let me know if this means an interview will take place for my wife? Also does it mean we are close to to decision made?

Could indicate an interview but not necessarily. Many applicants have received this request but were not invited for an interview. Once she submits her passport pages, it is likely a "Decision Made" status will be seen on ECAS and "Prohibitions", "Physical Presence" and "Language" will be set to "Completed" in the new dashboard concurrently.

We have various Visas (Schengen - EU) and entry stamps for these countries as well as UAE entry stamps. Do we need to have each page translated? (UAE stamp indicates entry etc. but there is a lot of things in Arabic as well).

If you have stamps where everything in the stamp is in a foreign language AND English or French, then no. Any stamp where you think there is no English translation for any of the words on the stamp, then I'd suggest you get those translated.

Thank you for the guidance. Just one more question on stamps, the US customs officer did not stamp our entry to USA for one of our visits. Do we need to obtain anything about it? or should we just write a short letter explaining it?

You can write a letter explaining it. If IRCC sees the need, they might ask you for I-94 later.
