- Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) are case notes available to anyone in Canada under the Right to Information Act;
- It takes 30 days from the day you send a request. But I got mine in two weeks' time;
- You can submit your request here: https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do

Hello, Can you also tell me how big is the report and what does it contain?

For those who got virtual oath invites, was a line added to ECAS to indicate that you were invited?

Only some, some had the added line, while some like myself went straight to citizenship completed on *date*

No you can’t apply, on your application it will ask for your Citizenship Certificate number, which you won’t know/see until you get the physical copy. You have to wait

It will contain the whole application journey, stages, and status updates. Most importantly the next due dates and if you’ve cleared all the checks or not. Read from last page to first (bottom up)

Hi guys, so I just got a reply to my IRCC Webform inquiry: “We have verified the information you provided. For further information regarding your enquiry, please refer to the email that was sent to you on September 1, 2020, to the following address: xxxxxxxx@gmail.com” - which was the Oath Invitation email I had received on Sep 1st, 2020.

So if you are on Decision Made and it’s been over 12 months send that Webform. Sometimes officers forget your files. After all they’re only human but this is a great way to gently remind them! Good luck!

Ok so after I get citizenship certificate do I have to visit service Canada to apply for passport or can I apply online

thanks. since I already have the decision made and one oath scheduled, so all checks must already be cleared.
I hope it gives some idea about next scheduling .

Unfortunately, regular passport applications are being handled through the mail-in service only.
Only urgent and express applications when provided with evidence of the urgency are given appointment to file the application manually.
