I have passed the citizenship test at July end 2014 (20/20) Mississauga office- I was very happy as am getting closer to my Canadian citizenship.

Its more than 4months now without a feedback from CIC :'(

I did well in the interview but the officer told me we will get back to you in 2weeks to 4months!!!!

Its really frustrating; to live for more than four years in Canada & faced with this unjustified delay!!!! could anybody advise on this PLEASE??? does anybody know what could be the reason of this delay is?? and does this delay mean that something is wrong with my application or this is normal????!!!!

Could anyone provide a Telephone number I can call where I could get an update from PLEASE?????

Re: Passed the Test(20/20), wating for my Oath appointment since more than 4m!!!!!!

Don't worry, you are not the only one in this situation! We passed the test on August 11th as well and still waiting. I know this is extremely frustrating, but it will happen sooner or later. Stay positive and good luck!

Well, Same here for me. I have done the test on July 31st and my file has approved by judge since August 12th and still no letter!!! Every time I call, they simply tell me that your file is completed and waiting for oath to be scheduled :(

I had my test on July 2014 too, but in Ottawa office , the agent told me the same as you i have to wait from one to 4 months , I'm still waiting without any updates, but I called cic last week , she said my file was approved and every things look ok ,it seems they are preparing the oath lettre for me to take ceremony this December , but she doesn't give me a specific date and time , so I think you should call cic and see your file's statue , may you hear a good news this week ,good luck everyone

OMG..... you know what:am really proud to be a Canadian citizen in advance and once I become one (God only knows when) one of the most important missions I have as a citizen will be to improve the immigration services through the official approach to the provincial and federal parliaments... the way the immigration services provided now is an embarrassment :mad:

CIC harassment!!!!! How long it takes to get the Oath appointment letter!!!!!

I called the CIC on this number and after more than one hour of listening to primitive recordings and poorly trained operators all what I've got for an answer was "the system updates says your application is under process" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is an experience that considered embarrassing for a third world country!!!!! I am depressed and shocked with this kind of service... I decided to move my family's life to Canada with a lot of pride and determination and turned to an unhappy "citizen to be" after 4 years of struggle!!!!

I want Canada to be the greatest country in the world and this will never happen with the level of services I surprisingly witnessed from CIC.

If anyone has any advice to help me with I'll be truly thankful

Hello henrymoore



Relax... you are Not the only one waiting, there is a major delay from CIC, on sending out the Oath invitation's

some applicant's are waiting after test since July/ June / even some from May

You won't get a good answer from the call center agent,they would just tell you to wait for 6 months, I suggest you call few times, some of the agents are experienced and they help and some are Not, and while you are waiting did you Consider ordering your ATIP report ?

it would tell you if your application was approved or not and when ? and if it was approved then relax it's just a matter of few more weeks for them to schedule the Oath for you

Good luck to you.

You are not the only one. I have been waiting since April and every time I call them they say it is being "processed" at some god darn office... I doubt any one at the CIC is actually working.
Also, you must bear in mind that the Harper Cons don't want to grant us citizenship because they don't want to increase their chances of losing the next election. It is that simple.

Their call center # is 1-888-242-2100 but save your breath. It is useless to call them.
