Still no oath :(. I wonder if I should call CIC and ask them for status because next week it will be 3 months since my test is done.

I received my oath letter yesterday for Sep 21st :)

I spoke to call center 2 days ago as it's been more than 3 months since I wrote the test and they declined to provide any information. They said we need to wait for 9 months after the test date before they can provide any updates.

Application received: 03-Oct-2014
Test: 25-May-2015
Decision Made: 24-Jul-2015

Question:

I'll be taking my oath next week. My letter says to be there at 10 am. The time on the website says the ceremony is at 10:30.

I have several friends/family who will be there.

Should I tell my friends/family to be there at 10 or 10:30?

Thanks in advance for your help,

I had my Oath Ceremony yesterday!
Took some time for us to registered so we started at 8:45am versus the time of invite which was 8:00am but most guests came at 8:00am.

Today I was able to obtain my passport!

Wish you all the best!

I got my oath invite too :D. It's on September 25th at 10 AM.

In the oath invite it is also mentioned that I need to bring all the original documents again. I showed them once during test time. Just wondering if they will check them again. Will take them with me any ways.

No updates on ecas :(

Also how long does the oath ceremony take? I want to go back to work after the oath.

You were able to obtain passport a day after your oath in Calgary? Please how did you go about doing that. Please explain? My oath in on Oct 2, 2015 in Calgary and I have a ticket booked to travel (fly) to the US on Oct 7. Can I obtain my Canadian Passport in this timeframe?
