    Guys, may be someone can answer my question as well. I had the oath yesterday and they asked us to wait 2 business days for passport. I saw online and ecas now says Complete. The last line is you became a citizen on December 4,2018. Does that mean tomorrow I can go and apply for a passport? Thanks

    Travel History check

    If you went to US, the best bet is to get your entry records from USA. I dont think my CBSA report showed exit dates as they dont scan our passport or do anything when we leave Canada.

    "Decision Made", can this be a denial without notice?

    Hey, I was in the same boat as you. I had extensive US travels too and for me to get an oath invitation, it took them 20 days after I saw decision made in ECAS. Dont worry, it will be good news if your exit/entries in your physical calculator were true.
