Hi guys ,

got my oath ceremony invitation for March 25th. I do however think that the oath ceremonies will be canceled due to the corona virus .. and that might be the right thing to do in this situation

You always can click to the link provided in your oath invitations and request a new ceremony date.

Hi guys, my application was received in May 2019. Recently, I got an email to write my citizenship test in two weeks. Should I cancel or reschedule it due to the coronavirus? Thank you! :oops:

I mean if they haven’t cancelled it themselves I would go but then again it’s your call and what you feel comfortable with. Can I ask which location you will be having your test at?

Does anyone know if this is considered a reasonable reason to reschedule ?

Thank you so much for your reply!
I will be taking it in Hamilton Ontario, which has two cases confirmed. My test would be in the morning at 8:55 am. Thanks!

I live in Hamilton and so far it seems business as usual all around so I would go but, once again, it’s your call and what you feel comfortable with.

As the coronavirus panic is setting in, classes at schools are being canceled, Ottawa is closing down public venues, I am concerned that the citizenship test on March 19 might get canceled. Is there any way to contact IRCC about this? I am taking my test in Toronto. There are 41 confirmed corona cases in the GTA.
Edit: The City of Toronto reports that "Currently, COVID-19 is not circulating locally in Toronto." which I think means that all reported infections within the GTA so far have been brought from abroad and not contracted within the GTA, so hopefully the test is not going to get canceled.

If it gets cancelled they will inform you of such.

You can still attend. No panic. Below is a link for the 2009 H1N1 virus spread while doing the ceremony and the precautions taken by the CIC to prevent any mishaps.

CANCELLATION OF KNOWLEDGE TESTING/ RETESTING EVENTS AND CEREMONIES

As a precautionary measure in line with prevention efforts to stem the spread of COVID-19 taking place across Canada, and out of consideration for the health and safety of our clients and employees, we are temporarily cancelling all citizenship testing and retesting events as well as all citizenship ceremonies as of March 14, 2020 until further notice. Events will be rescheduled in the near future.

Your scheduled event has been cancelled. You will be provided with a new date/time in the upcoming weeks. Please contact us if you feel your case is urgent at IRCC...
