It depends on the language that you need to translate. You will have to Google a certified translator in the area where you live.

Hello guys,

I applied on 29th October 2013.

They started processing my application on March-6th, 2014.

and just today sent me a letter to take the test on May, 6th.

Will they inform me about the oath date right after the test date?

If I live Canada after my test date, and I miss the oath date which they assign to me, will I have to go through application process again!?
1. You will receive the Oath letter in the weeks following the test/interview.
2. You may leave the country after taking the test, however it's recommended to inform CIC if you are going to be away for over 2 months.
CIC Halifax usually issues the Oath invitation within 4-6 weeks following the test. I heard of a recent case here which the applicant(username "Halifax") had the oath 11 days after the test. So plan accordingly.

lilua ...Congratulations :D

May i ask you a question ...at which stage I can know my office ? I received the AOR but nothing shows in respect of office !!
When your 'Received' line disappears from your ecas, then you can assume that you have been assigned a local office, that is your file has been transferred to a new office.

Congratulations to you and your husband! I also took the test on 16th of April and my local office is St. John's Newfoundland. Hopefully, our own oath date will likely be on June 9th as per citizenship ceremony just updated on CIC website.

Thanks, and congrats/best of luck to you as well! We are going to do something distinctly Canadian after the ceremony, but not sure yet what that will be... any suggestions? Poutine and Canadian wine? Haha

LOL

No ideas yet. I think they will pop up when I have actually received an oath date.

But Poutine and Canadian wine sure does'nt sound like a bad idea to me ;)
