Just finished my citizenship ceremony. It's extremely chaotic on zoom but nonetheless, it happens only once. Today is my first day as a Canadian Citizen.

Its been a long journey and a lot of paperwork, from student visa to work permit to PR to citizenship and this forum has been very helpful. Thank you to everyone who has helped along in the journey and answered questions on this forum. This forum is the best!

Good luck everyone with your respective journeys.

In September 2022, I will be representing Canada at the Golden Globe Race which is a solo non-stop round the world sailing race which will keep me at sea for more than 250 days. Please support me and pray that I win the race for Canada. You can follow along the journey on my website and social media.

Thanks for sharing.

I'll try to summarize my notes.

My application has been "Test Ready" since 29th Feb 2020 and then updated again for Test Ready on 18th Dec 2020 - 2 dates given in Paper History.

Security and Criminality - complete on 09th Feb 2021.

The due date for knowledge (test), prohibition, language and physical presence is ...

* Drumroll *

... 27/12/2020. (I don't understand? Only Knowledge is In Progress, rest not started as per GCMS.)

Currently, Paper File reads:

Location: Scanned Files. (It was Test Ready before this and then changed to scanned files on 04/02/2021. I got my Test Invite email on the same day).

Lmk what do you guys think.

Mine was in scanned files after I completed the test. I guess your file is simply waiting for an officer to pick it and make a decision.

"Knowledge" refers to the test. The "Due date" on other components is by default set to 10 months from the IP date. If those 10 months have passed, I think it is extended by another 10 months until it is complete.

It strange that they redacted the Location: in my GCMS notes. I ordered them under 'privacy act'. Do I need to include any notes not to redacted that information?
 
Hi!

My tracker got updated on August 16th.
Prohibitions Completed August 16th.
The only thing that's pending is Citizenship Oath
I'm from Vancouver.
Does anyone know how long does it take for the final part? Will I have to wait around a month for them to give me a Citizenship oath date?

Thank you!

I’d say you are lucky if you wait for a month only. I’ve been waiting for almost 4. Mississauga office.
