Oath Timeline after test at Montreal Office

[jrjayl]

I am extremly depressed. I applied for citizenship in March 2012 I must be the oldest applicant on this forum. I had to travel in 2011 for work for a Canadian company even though I provided them the company letter and tax return still my case is in limbo. I have never left canada except for 2011. Very disappointed and depressed CIC is targeting wrong people. I have given them all the documents to support my case even under the new Citizenship laws I qualify I donno what the hold up is????

Applied - March, 2012
In process - Dec, 2012
RQ returned - March, 2013
Additional Doc sent - April 2014 CBSA travel history, Tax returns, Job letters, passport copies
Exam passed - Jan 27, 2015 in Montreal
Hearing - unknown
Oath - Unknown

Hey guys, Montreal just updated the ceremonies page:
7 July was removed
1 on 1 July was added
1 on 14 July was added

Wow, thanks for this info! Can you give the link of where I can find it? My test is on the 14th, does this mean there is a chance I will have the oath ceremony on the same date?

Thank you!

Same day tests+oath are usually at CIC offices

The test is at the CIC office on Saint-Jacques street but citizenship ceremony later that day is in the Marriott Hotel.... I guess this means it wont happen the same day.

Sahsan, you should have an invitation for the ceremony with that for the test.

If this is not the case, it will not be the same day.

Thanks again Bonenza, you're very helpful!

My ecas has been updated! I checked it over the weekend and there's a new line at the bottom. This is what it said earlier:

We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 7, 2014.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on February 16, 2015.
We started processing your application on April 9, 2015.
We sent you a notice on June 12, 2015 to appear and write the citizenship test on July 14, 2015 at 12:45 PM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

There is a new line at the bottom that was added recently:

We sent you a letter on June 16, 2015. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

I still havent received any other letter from CIC after the first one about the test. I will call them tomorrow to inquire... has anyone had a similar experience or have any ideas what this could be about?

Hello

Thanks for the info, but I am already in touch with my MP since last yr. There is a letter sent to me on June 29 most likely hearing letter. Hopefully they can make a decision on my case soon. I am tired of the CIC process.

Hi Melissa,

What happened after you got the "Decision made"?

 

[SoClose]

I have been waiting 6 weeks since I took my test. Today my E-Case showed "Decision made" with no additional details.
