Scarborough -DM-Oath

[saini01]

The anthem is written in both languages... he can sing along to the best of his ability. However, the Oath has to be repeated out loud like a wedding vows. Even though he didn’t have to produce any language proof, I assume that he has to verbally take the oath like everyone else.(yes, they check if everyone is saying it... I believe they strategically place regular looking people posing as guests to check if people are actually repeating it out loud)

Thanks Joshua for your reply. I have printed the oath and the national anthem and having my Dad practice it at home before the ceremony. I will make sure that he is spelling it out loud at the ceremony and of course I will be there as well and would repeat it as well second time though for me.

During Oath, they will give a booklet with O Canada printed on it. It is good to practice at home. The key is during English O Canada, sing it loud and clear by reading from book. And during French one, you father can still sing by reading from book. They will announce that your lips should move and you should be singing.

Okay. That is good they provide the booklet for national anthem. I was thinking of bringing the printout for my father or just google on the phone. Thank You

call ircc, and tell them about it.

I just called them, they have sent it by email (and they have my correct email) yet I have never received it (checked junk folder). The lady on the phone gave me the address and mentioned I can still go without the letter as they have me scheduled, and to bring some pieces of identity etc..

If anyone had a similar scenario and went without the letter let me know if you had any troubles.

Hi,

My ceremony is also in Missisauga. Mine is on 21st Sep.
I suggest you send them a query on a web form about the invitation. When they respond they will give you the address as well in the response. It will be better to go to the ceremony with atleast the print out of the web form query response.

This is just my suggestion. If I was you, I would have done this.

Thanks Rashu,

I called IRCC today and they gave me the address by phone. You think it is still better to also send a WebForm Request?

They probably sending it regular mail.

They told me it was sent by email specifically, yet haven't received anything. Maybe I will follow up using WebForm as Rashu suggested
