Are they cancelling all ceremonies or only the ones that were in person?
Possible Strike Action by IRCC employees starting mid-April
- Thread starter shiremag
- Start date
I am sure it will be only two weeks to flatten the strike.
I just hope this strike doesn't last more than a week, my oath is up for may 8th. Hopefully everything is resolved before then, fingers crossed.
Don't know how they will handle all the cancelled Oaths. Move everything by a week or move them to the end of the queue. Both are injustices to the applicants. More this goes on, more problem it will create for everyone.
just checking, the days when the workers are on strike, they don't get paid right? If so, the strike can't last that long
They have a strike pay. If you participate in strike activity then you get paid some money. Which is very little.

They say the ceremonies will be rescheduled.

Yes, I was reading the same news. That can clear the backlog big time but then the Citizenship certificates will get all the backlog.
Has anyone had a chance to call IRCC and ask what will happen to people whose oaths are scheduled for the upcoming days?
They have updated on their website that it will be rescheduled
