Hi every one,
This is the first time to post in this nice site as I got it from my friend who advised me to post my questions

Please all I need advice,
Immigrated and became PR with my family in June 2008 , Applied for citizenship Oct 2011, QR was Requested May 2012 , My QR was sent to them Aug 2012 and I waited (about 3 years) till I contacted MP to move the file, they move it from St Claire Toronto to Scarborough , then I got test and interview last week and I passed , they told me everything is done BUT criminal checks was expired , so they sent to Ottawa to get it , My question , why they requested it from Ottawa, not from Toronto , and what type of checks ? and how long its takes ? because after I should get the Oath..
Please advice
Thanks

First congrats on getting beyond the test that is one step closer to the long journey being over for you. I am not sure why they said they are sending it to Ottawa for checks but Criminal background checks have two components the RCMP nation wide and CSIS maybe there are processed in ottawa, the time to Oath depends on when the local office schedules you it can vary from 1 to 3 months frm what I have seen so far.
