    Just received a notice to appear for the citizenship ceremony on May 25! I did my test on March 29th and got decision made April 5th. The invitation is sent out by email but the attachments are quite challenging! Any experiences with how to download and open them?

    Interesting that they emailed you the oath invite. I thought that oath invites are mailed the same way that test invites are from the Ottawa office! What does you eCas say?

    Unfortunately it's not like that for every one. I've been DM since April 5th and no news yet. The rest of the process is going to be way more stress free if you go by the 4-8 weeks mentioned earlier.

    I would say it is still possible to get an invite this week for April 27. Someone from September received an invite on April 10 for the ceremony on April 27.

    Congrats! It's pretty straight forward. If you enter the building from Queen street, use the staircases you see on your right to go up to the C3 level. You'll see two elevators but you don't need to use them. The door for the examination room is going to be on your left. You first write the exam...

    You don't need a valid PR card to attend your citizenship ceremony. If you don't foresee any upcoming travels outside of Canada before becoming a citizen, you don't need to apply for a new PR card.

    I got the invitation to do the citizenship test in the mail today and I have to take my current and expired passports to the interview. There is no mention of translation in the notice but I have some entry/exit stamps that are not in English. Does anyone here have a similar experience? Should I...

    My eCas shows tonight that they have sent a notice on March 7 to appear for citizenship test on March 29. I didn't receive anything by email though. Is it normal for test invites to be sent out with mail only? Thank you!

    I got the same response from the web form saying that they cannot locate my application yesterday. Today I got my AOR. You are right, sending another application doesn't make sense. It's hard to wait but that's the best way I think. Could someone please update the spreadsheet for me? AOR on...

    So the strangest thing just happened! I just received my AOR via e-mail. They responded yesterday to the web form saying that we have not received an application from you and this morning they sent me an AOR. It may be a coincidence but I suggest people with applications around my time of...

    I did give them the tracking number for express post. Unfortunately i didn't ask for a signature when I sent the package so now the IRCC wants me to check with Canada Post that they indeed delivered the package to the processing center. I have opened a ticket with Canada Post waiting to hear...
