I took my oath this morning and finally become a Canadian. It has been a long journey.
Thank all the members in this forum, specially the admins who have done excellent work.
Best wishes and good luck to those who are still waiting!

They have worked very hard to make sure everybody's case processed in 12 months, so I think they deserve to sleep on the job, relax about 7 hours per day, and take a vacation until probably next year.

They do, not everyone that applies for Citizenship is on this forum.

What is 3/5 rule?

Hey guys my application is still in process (14 month) and I had my test 2 months ago. Does it make sense to ask MP to doa follow up on my application?? I emailed CIC and they just said we confirm that your application is still in process! No more details. I am an OCT applicant from Calgary

I'm an October 2017 applicant and finally did my test today at Scarborough. The interviewer at the end of the interview said that he has no concerns and that I should expect a citizenship ceremony invite in about 3-4 months. So the wait goes on. Lol.
