I had my test on February 16 and i just checked ECAS and it was updated to this. Is this a FP request for sure or can it be something else?

It can be something else (request for travel history, translations, or other information), but it is most likely an FP request.

I already had the test and interview with the officer and she checked my passport and travel history, Although i did stay abroad for over 183 days within Europe but not all in one country so i did not need a police certificate from either countries but beacause Within Europe they don’t stamp your way out and in i had no written proof i just gave her the dates and she wrote them down and said next step is your oath ceremony. Do you have any thoughts about this?

As I said, it's likely a request for fingerprints (usually those happen because you or someone with a similar name was charged with or convicted of a crime). It could be something else. That's not common, but it can happen.

Hey guys,
"We sent you a notice on march 5, 2018 to appear and take the oath of citizenship ceremony to be held on march 24, 2018 at 8:30 AM."
I was wondering if you have received the letter in mail, mine says they sent it on 5 Mar but I haven't received it yet. Would you mind sharing which location(Queen st or Museum? you do your oath?

Hi everyone,

Happy to find this thread and see that things are moving along for most of us in Ottawa!

My timeline:
App delivered Oct 13
Aor Dec 14
In process Jan 22
Test invite Feb 27
Test date Mar 22

For those who had their test/interview, how long did the whole process take approximately? I have to plan for work, and my test is scheduled at 8:15am... Did you guys have to wait a long time between the test and the interview? I'm hoping to be done by 9:30am, not sure if it's realistic.

Thanks and good luck to everyone!
