Hi All, Did anyone receive oath invite who wrote test in Nov14 @ Mississauga office ? Thanks for your support.

Have you tried calling CIC and asking where the file is stuck?

Not yet. I think it's too early based on what I read on other forums and based on @Andame. I'll give them 3 months which is the standard time mentioned on cic website from citizenship test to oath and then send them message via webform. Fingers crossed. Thanks to all who responded to my query!

The Oath time when I called was told is up to three months from the date your status changes to "Decision Made". And I would call not fill a webform which has a 5 day turn around.

Hi, I gave my test in August and during the interview I was told that all good only one clearance (for me only) is pending and as soon as they receive it, I and my family will be called for oath. They said the delays are normally due to workload at the other party’s end who does clearance. It’s now more than 4 months and i haven’t heard from them and my ecas still says IP while wife’s is DM. I sent the web inquiry but received standard response that they are processing the file. I wonder if any one else is/was in the same boat and any suggestions?

Took oath yesterday, December 20th. ECAS status changed to complete today, December 21st.

Took Oath yesterday Dec 23. ECAS status Completed today.

Applied for passport post completion status - very smooth and simple process.

BTW - they say wait for 2 business days after oath [they mentioned Dec 30th the best day to apply]. But its after status changes to COMPLETE that you can apply....thanks @citi4raj for the journey all along.
