I hear you, but the loss in my case would be more than 4,000$, as I had a non refundable booking since last year on March. I decided to postpone my oath for two months and not loosing my booking. I’m living permanently in Canada and I have no plans to leave, so two more months as PR is not a big dealI don't understand people that delay the ceremony... It's simply the most important date in our lives (after our kids' birthdays etc.), and I just don't get what might be more important than that... IT'S THE DAY YOU BECOME THE CITIZEN OF THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.Why would you want to postpone it?
I will put it this way... I took a huge risk by booking my trip not knowing when my ceremony would be... My risk paid off because it is 2 weeks after the ceremony and I have enough time to do the urgent Passport Application BUT I was mentally prepared to lose over $1000.00 just to become a Canadian Citizen... I even told my spouse that if they schedule it for the same date, I will be happy to lose $1000.00 as long as I become Canadian which has been my dream for well over 8 years now... I would have a whole life ahead of me to earn $1000.00 again... Money is nothing in comparison to the status of the Canadian Citizen... It is such a great honour to be one...
Anyways, I guess you guys got my drift... I do not get WHY people would try to postpone their oaths...
This is just my opinion obviously so I hope I did not offend those who are trying to postpone it... I do realize that sometimes emergencies are emergencies... I meant people that delay it because of their vacations etc...
Good morning
this fourm is very helpful .
I need an advice please
can someone ask for urgent citizenship processing for medical reasons?
I know a person who's she suffering a health issues and non of the hospitals/doctors are able to figure out her problems, they kept giving her advils and tylenol!, her health became worse since doctors are unable to ideantify her sicknesses! , now she's all swelling and it sounds serious and she had to quit her job,, her temperature reached 43 !
can she asks for urgent processing so she could apply for a passport and travel somewhere else for hospitalization ?
she's been In Canada for 10 years and never traveled before, her application received Nov 8th 2017 , not even in
process yet
Montreal office !!
thanks

hi everyone, my ecas changed to "we hve sent you a letter to appear for a test on april 3" I havent received any letter. Should I be calling them for location of the test? also does this mean that eligibility is complete?
My
My situation is kind of similar to you. What did the IRCC say to your request? Was it a hassle postponing your oath ceremony? Appreciate your response.
