Hi respected members,

I have been waiting for my oath since jun 28 2022.

No update

APPlication applied : Online
Office :Kitchener Waterloo

No update on tracker on oath ceremony

Please advise?
Simultaneously comforting and sad to see someone else waiting 2+ months for oath after everything else was moved to Completed. I've seen this happen for a handful of other Kitchener applicants. Niagara Falls seems to be doing the oath for most people in Kitchener and pretty much anywhere in Ontario outside the GTA, and they do seem to be delayed lately. I'd recommend that you first email the Kitchener office (reply to your test invitation email). If they say that your file has been transferred to Niagara Falls, then you can ask for the Niagara Falls email to follow up with.

Hi everyone

my son applied Sept 21, 2021. Took his test April 6, 2022. Got 2 emails requesting for passport pages June 2 and June 25, so far until now no movement still in progress. Is this a normal timeline? How long from Test-Passport Pages to Oath?

I hope we start getting Oath invitations soon. My file completed a year now and nothing yet happened since background check and test completed.

Sep 15. Nothing completed except test.
Sent fp in May.
Requested note July 28, no reply.
So, I will go ahead visiting my parents in Japan in November. It is way overdue…
I have funny feeling that my file won’t move even an inch by that time, anyway! So I am going!

I am on with you. I am unable to understand how they work. There is no set pattern that I can see and specially its unfair with online applicants
Made a terrible mistake by applying through the online portal. Most have got there oath’s done. By the way My application is from May 2022.

I applied for Canadian Citizenship through online exactly 1 year ago (September 6, 2021). My Citizenship test status changed to "Completed" more than 4 months ago. There is no update after that. My processing office is Scarborough.

For applicants whose processing office is Scarborough, how long does it take to get oath invitation after completing the citizenship test? Forum members please share your experience.
How do you know your processing office is in Scarborough? I just got my AOR and I don’t know where my application is? Is there a way to know that?

I got Citizenship test invite from Scarborough office. Usually test and oath both are handled by the same processing office.
