Congrats to you and ajay95!sansoy said:Passed Citizenship test today.....20/20...
Wait for Oath begins....
@ajay95: I don't think you need to update any documents, you'll only need to get a passport so you can enter Canada without the PR.
Ajay95, you actually do need to renew your OHIP card - I was updating mine last week since it expired (I am still a PR, but waiting for citizenship test) and the lady at the service ontario was very kind to point out that once I have the citizenship I will have to come back and fill in the new form. She said its just one form and will be very quick though.ajay95 said:
cheers and congrats on your citizenship!
Did you See any Updated on your Ecas ? before or after receiving the Test Invite.KrisinNS said:
The update on ECAS of test and/or oath letters is not reliable.karthicbaboo said:
In my case I saw ECAS update before I got the test letter, but in another June 2014 applicant's case ECAS was not updated until he already gets test/oath letter.
So true! Please don't rely on ECAS for the most up-to-date information.jrjayl said:
I passed my test last month and am waiting for oath, but my ECAS still says "in process." My ECAS basically never got updated.
It still says.......

Yes, my ecas was updated with a line saying that a letter was sent to me inviting me to appear for the test, and that if I did not receive it before the test date, I should contact CIC.karthicbaboo said:
I saw the Ecas update on the same day that I got the letter in the mail.
it is possible to count the days who lived in Canada as student or worker before the PR is approved.

I have lived in Canada since 2009, initially on a work permit. According to the current rules, days lived in Canada prior to receiving permanent residence (ie on work permit, or as a student) count as 1/2 days towards the residency requirements of 1095 days for applying for citizenship.meateater said:
