Hi Zaraben

This is what I found from this forum someone got: "Yup I got mine for Oct 2nd , applied Sept 24th 2014, test August 6th"

I also see in the CIC website that there is Oath ceremony on 5th Oct2015. Probably in a weeks time you might get.

I have done my test on the 27th Aug2015 and expecting Oath around mid or end of Oct2015 based on the current timing from this forum.

All the best to all, Cheers

Thanks! Good luck to you too!

Cheers,

Ben

Hello All,

I see people that had the test only in September think that they will receive oath invite very soon, it could or could not happen. I did the test on August 6 (No RQ or fingerprint and everything smooth) and still waiting for oath invite. In ECAS the status is decision made for 6 weeks already.

My timeline:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 17, 2014.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on January 23, 2015.
We started processing your application on January 28, 2015.
We sent you a notice on July 23, 2015 to appear and write the citizenship test on August 6, 2015

You should be good to go. Go in to the passport office early on Oct 6 and request urgent processing. Have your ticket handy, the forms filled with your guarantor and 2 references ready to be called. Make sure the guarantor and references know why you need urgent processing. The fee is $270. You should be able to collect at the end of that day.
Thank you very much for the piece of advise. I will do as instructed.

It depend on the Application date not the Test date. so may be the one who did the test in Sep their application is older than you so they can get the oath faster.
It is NOT depend on application date, my friend has applied later than me but already received oath letter.

Dear Espinoza,

I understand your situation, but as far as I did my research talking to friends and observing application timeline patterns in this forum I can tell you unfortunately CIC does not follow any queue. You can only predict your time range, but can not say boldly that I applied before him then I will get oath or test date before.....

Hope you will get your oath invitation in no time....

Hi smobin99,

Can you tell me when did you apply?

In your case, my opinion is as its been already more than 2 months after your test, So you can contact call center and ask them about the status of your application.

If you do not get any satisfactory answer 2nd option is to apply for ATIP.

These are my suggestions only. Hope you will get oath letter very soon......
