[ADEOLU2K5]

How can i get my GCMS notes? I simply sent them an enquiry using the webform just today.. I am super frustrated it seems they haven't touched Mississauga files for those that applied since June 2019

I have a question for you if you don’t mind. Since your ceremony was today, would you mind sharing any details regarding a citizenship certificate? The website says you should receive it at the ceremony which i think they are referring to in-person ceremonies, but i have come across posts that some are still waiting for theirs for months.

I did not get the citizenship certificate today.
After the oath I had to sign the oath paper and scan it to the agent. They told me the citizenship certificate will be mailed to me in 4 to 6 weeks.

Congratulation! It's been a heck of the journey.

No interview at all. I get the impression that they're reducing interviews as they're trying to catch up with the backlog

Thanks! It took longer than I have hoped but still fast enough given the whole situation.

good question. would be interested to know about this.. if they skipped the in-person interview process, the processing (hopefully) will be faster.

In-person interviews have been non-existent since March 2020. Additional documents request before the test (for some applicants) is replacing the in-person interview.

Nice to know.. the additional documents (if requested) needs to be sent to the local processing office or any other office over a regular post (or) they are requesting scanned copies, to speed up the process?

Additional documents, if requested, are to be set by email. Check my signature for the post that provides a template of what documents are being asked.
