Has anyone here left Canada after citizenship oath but before receiving the Canadian Passport and returned to Canada on the foreign passport using special authorization? As per this website...

Do we have to create Zoom account to attend the Online Citizenship Oath ceremony?

Two questions to those of you who already got the oath dates: How many days in advance were you notified about your oath date? How were you notified about your oath date? (was it an email or did you first see an update in the online tracker that the oath is scheduled?)

I logged into the old tracker today and realized that it shows "Decision Made" but when I go into the application details the last update is "We started processing your application on February 17, 2021" and there are no updates after that date. Then I logged into the new tracker and the last...

How much did it delay your application?

Did any of you provide a foreign (not Canadian) person that lives outside of Canada as a reference for your Canadian passport application? If yes did it cause any problems or delays with the application?

I was told that to apply for Canadian Passport one needs to find a guarantor and 2 references. I was wondering if it means that we need 3 people (guarantor + 2 separate persons as references) or do we just need 2 people (one person that would be a guarantor and a reference at the same time +...

How long does it currently take to see the Decision Made status in the new tracker after finishing the online test?

If you already had your online interview could you please share how it looked and what questions were asked? Also what are we supposed to prepare for the online interview?

Does applying for the PR renewal while Citizenship application is in process delay or affect the citizenship application in any way?

Hi, I know that for sure you have to be in Canada to take the online citizenship test. But how about the online interview and online oath ceremony? Are we required to be in Canada as well or the online interview and online oath ceremony can be done while being in other country than Canada?

I was told that I can call CIC and ask which office is processing my application but I am not able to reach them. I guess they get a lot of phone calls recently. I was wondering if the offices are assigned based on the location of the applicant? If yes then which office would be processing...

Hi, Does anyone know - applicants from which month are currently receiving the test invites? (I am asking about the standard applications, not the urgent processing ones) I am trying to estimate when more-less I should expect to receive my test invite based on the test invites that are being...

How to check which office is processing your application?

My name was changed when I was a kid (while I was living in my country of origin long time before I applied for Canadian PR) therefore I have my new name on my foreign driver license, foreign passport and Canadian PR card (as foreign document I mean the one from my country of origin). My old...

After becoming PR I did not spend 183 or more days in a row in my country of origin. So does it mean I dont have to submit the police certificate with citizenship application? What about the regulations that @k.h.p. mentioned?

Yes, I tried using the calculator. It asked me if i was in the Canada with any status before the PR and I answered "no". And then it asks me the question "Did you leave Canada between 2015-07-13 and 2020-07-13?" and I answer "yes". And then it says "Please list all your absences outside Canada...

I submitted the police certificate when applying for the PR. It was more than 6 months ago and I did travel to the country of origin recently (so after the police certificate was issued).

Dear All, Within 5 years eligibility period, before I arrived to Canada as the PR I lived in my country of origin from where I have traveled to other countries. 1) Should I list these travels in the Online Presence Calculator? or 2) Should I only list the trips that I took from Canada to other...

Dear All, In the citizenship application guide there is an information "You don’t need to provide a police certificate if you were in your country of origin immediately prior to becoming a permanent resident and landing in Canada" and then there is an example that says "You lived in France for...
