Mississauga Office Applicants 2014/ 2015

[malabadi]

Hello everyone,

We are scheduled to write the test in Mississauga on Feb 3rd. In the invitation letter, they asked for the original documents that we copied in our applications.

My questions is: is it a good idea to bring more supportive documents like pay stubs, credit card statements, lease contracts, etc. for the officer to check?

Has anyone been asked to provide more documents during or after the interview other that the originals that were copied with the application?

I need your experiences please.

Thank you and wish you all the best.

Nothing extra required in my case, the officer went through the application and took some notes on it and checked my passport.

I had my test mid-december, the officer told me that a letter will be sent in a couple if weeks, yet I have not received anything so far.

I will be traveling in march and also in april, in case they would send an invite for the oath, how much time would I have, a week, two weeks of notice? What is your experience?

Normally the CIC send invitations for Citizenship tests and for Oath Ceremony 2 weeks in advance. If you are traveling and have someone reliable to monitor your mails, that should not be a problem. At the same time, if you can keep checking online that's still better.

Once you get the invitation and you get notified you can fly in time for the Ceremony Oath. Hope you get your Oath in coming weeks 8)

However, a word of caution. I read some instances on this forum, where the individuals who were entrusted with the responsibility to monitor their mails, never informed about receipt of mail. As a result some applicants had their files considered abandoned by CIC. :

Hi Guys,

I got my invite to the Citizenship Oath ceremony in Mississauga last week. It took CIC about 4 weeks to send the invite. My oath schedule is on Feb 12, 2016 at 8:00 AM.

Appreciate all the help and inspiration this platform provided during my citizenship journey.

Wishing you all the best in all your endeavors.

Willy

Good AM to all!

I have posted previously regarding my citizenship journey and I am happy to share that last January 08, 2016 - I had my citizenship test. I passed the test (20/20) and had a detailed interview with a CIC Officer. I checked eCas this morning and my status has been updated to DM.

I was informed during the interview that they will send the invite for the oath within 2 to 3 months.

Following is the details of my citizenship journey :

Received Application for Citizenship -> Nov 24, 2015
Sent Letter of Acknowledgement -> Feb 17, 2015
Stated Processing my Application -> March 17, 2015
File Transferred to Mississauga Office -> April 1, 2015
Citizenship Test in Mississauga -> January 8, 2016

It took a while and patience was somehow challenged....but I am getting there.
