September 2022 - Citizenship Applicants

What is the avg timeline for scarborough applicants to receive oath after test completion ?

Appreciate - thanks for the info! However, PR card doesn't really have signature. Is that ok?

That is fine. It's either PR card or a photo id with your signature. I used Pr card. Test already marked completed.

Still waiting my friend. No updates since Jan 25th. Test and BG completed so far.

Which number did you call IRCC with please?

1 (888) 242-2100. This is the number

Just align your PR card in the box that shows up on the screen. Make sure your face doesn't show up when taking photo of your id. Your hands or fingers may show in the box and that is fine. It won't be picture perfect but try to click a picture that is close enough to being clear. You can try multiple times. Second page will be you taking your own picture.

I was so anxious that I accidentally clicked my own picture in the ID section but soon realized and fixed it before starting the test.

More than the test this photo taking activity freaks you out

@sdharan21 any update about your virtual rescheduling?

PS - unlike what their letter says, where we took the oath in person, there were SO MANY guests, most to watch the ceremony, others to handle kids or applicants who needed assistance.

Nothing yet. I just attended job interview too in which having a Canadian citizenship be advantageous. Sent them a few emails now . Nothing positive yet except saying the will reschedule for a virtual one.

So annoying, if i knew that this was going to be the case I would have just made it yesterday with my son. Husband could have taken him out if he was uncomfy !

Congratulation by the way on becoming a Canadian Citizen

Hello, I received an email on jan 11th 2023 requesting fingerprints. Went to the RCMP office to have them taken but they said they were not authorized to send them so they would send them to me instead. I just received the fingerprints. Where do I have to send them and do I have to write the case number in the envelope?

It'll get marked sooner then later. Even after that the movements are real slow!!

Not sure why they said they are not authorized where RCMP accredited agencies do send it to them and they forward it to the IRCC address , you would see the address in the PDF attached on the email you received the fingerprints request .

Make sure you don't open the envelope and send it directly to the address on the FP request PDF... Use Canada Post with tracking so you know when it gets delivered

how long it does approximately take for language skills and physical presence status to be updated after in progress ?

 

[linxord]

Still no update for me, so today I requested ATIP from CBSA regarding background check and any notes.
Hopeful that either it arrives or the process moves along soon.

Hard to predict. All depends on your luck my friend. But this I for sure know that these 3 gets marked completed at the same time.
