October 11th 2017 - Citizenship Applicants under 3/5 rule

[woodworker]

I received a Notice to Appear for a Citizenship Test on May 3rd via email on April 18.

I was just wondering since the letter doesnt have my name, address or application number on the pdf file, not even on the cover page.

I got the same. No name or file number.I have asked the same question here on the forum but no one replied. Lol .my ecas was updated the next day so all fine

I called and blocked the weeks I will be out of the country. Hopefully, the Oath ceremony will happen either with enough time to get a new passport or after I come back... finger crossed!

Do you think this is why you got the oath? Did you call and ask for an earlier oath due to travel?

Congrats
Does your wife get DM yet?
Hamilton office is good at test invites but not at DM and oaths

Yes, please refer to entry "gokeeper+1" in the main spreadsheet.

Same here, no name and file number, I believe it's for mine since my wife already took the test 1 month ago. ECASE is not updated yet, I will make sure to check again tomorrow.

Thanks for your reply. I had my ecas updated before i recieved the email, so i guess they have their ways of verifying if its really for me on the day of the test.

April 20 from now on will always be a memorable day for my family.

My spouse and I FINALLY (after many years of this journey) became PROUD CANADIAN CITIZENS today.

We attended a Citizenship Ceremony today in Mississauga. The organization and the Ceremony itself were spectacular. I even cried a little bit.

Start to finish it took 6 months and 4 days for our citizenship application (very lucky indeed!).

For those of you who are still waiting, be patient, the day of your Ceremony is not that far away.

Thanks to everyone on this forum for your help!!!

I will definitely stay here to help others...

Updated. Congrats!! Your location of Toronto is updated in Notes column.

Once someone receives test invite, from GTA, the location is updated to visa office sending the test invite. It help others in making references how visa offices are performing. Also, all applicants in GTA are being processed at either Scarborough or Mississauga.
