I got mine in a week of everything being marked complete. Though I did ask them to push it out till after my business and personal travels are done. So who knows when I'll get it after I am indeed back for good
November 2021 - Citizenship applications
- Thread starter canvisa001
- Start date
Nice! I hope I get mine so quick too! But I guess in terms of the journey, the decision is already made/approved right? Oath is a formality
I don’t have any updates at all , just a fancy AOR. Next week, I’ll celebrate the first anniversary of my application. I hope I don’t celebrate the second anniversary.
Yeah, honestly I don't know why they don't ask people to make a declaration in front of a notary instead. This whole oath process to actually become a citizen is so outdated. My DM was on Oct 15 and now I've to wait till Feb or March or even later to become a citizen.
I am in the same boat. No update since BG and Test completion in May 2022. More than 6 months and there is no activity.
I am with you... Don't feel lonely. Will be celebrating anniversary at the end of the month with only AOR in hand.
In my opinion, the file is just sitting there statically until the officer picks it up again and checks those items as completed. Alternatively, they might have reached out to verify your Presence and Language Skills, as well as maybe your Prohibitions, but this is less likely, as it'd involve a lot more work - perhaps in instances where there are some concerns or potential red flags.
my situation is also the same. BG & Test marked complete and waiting since 25th Aug..
I must say I do feel for people who only have AOR done and waiting for the rest..
Fingers crossed and hoping for the best

I had my ceremony on October 28th (virtually - Montreal) and received an email just last night informing me that I "can go and pick up the certificate at IRCC in Montreal on November 16th." If I don't go to pick it up, it will be sent to my address by mail automaticallty which can take 4-6 weeks. Stupid me's been checking my mailbox everyday since ceremony, turns out I have to go pick it up 3 weeks after ceremony. Oh Montreal office, always surprising me!
Oh well, one more week and you'll be done with this journey! Then the next pain in the butt of getting a passport with start, but that'll be the last hurdle!
Honestly, it's not as bad at the moment. People are getting it within a month
