had my Oath on October 25th. Still haven't received the certificate. Mississauga office. Living in Vaughan
File closed. They also confirmed it's been sent out 3 weeks ago.
Hi do you know how can we get hold of the citizenship agents as I have sent them the signed paper after my citizenship ceremony and after a week they told me that they haven't received my email and I have resent them the email and haven't heard back from them after that it has been a week now. I also told them that I need it urgently. Thank you.
I have my Oath on Nov 17th and I’m traveling to Pakistan on Dec 4th. Wondering if I’ll get the certificate within few days so I can apply for the passport or I should reschedule the Oath? Any advise. Thanks
just wondering what they do with the PR card at the time of ceremony? Can we use the PR card after the oath for international travel?
No. You will cut your PR card towards the end of your citizenship ceremony. The cards will obviously be rendered invalid because you are no longer a PR and cannot use a PR card.
Can't say when you'll get the certificate. Could be anywhere from a week to 6 weeks, unfortunately.
Yes that make sense, wondering how soon we can get the citizenship certificate after the oath? Seems I should reschedule the ceremony.
I think there are some instances where people have managed to pick up the certificate in person from a local office a day or two after the Ceremony, but I seem to recall it's anecdotal - unless someone has actually managed to do it? I can't find any hard evidence in the forum of this.
Anywhere between 1 week and 6 weeks. If your application is processed urgently, you might get it within a day or two.
Request the clerk at the ceremony to expedite the dispatch of your certificate if you have travel coming up.
