Hello forum members, We (self, spouse and two kids) took our citizenship oath today with 87 others at Harry Hays building. Ceremony was scheduled for 1.00pm for those taking the oath and 1.30pm for members of the public. We arrived 12:45pm and there was already a long line. Everything however...

Congrats on your citizenship interview/exam invite. You just get ready for the test by reading Discovery Canada as many times as it makes you confidence and comfortable and need not worry about any finger print request. Finger printing is only done for a small proportion of citizenship...

Hi batmann, any update on your oath invite?

Hello. RQ means Residency Questionnaire and it is issued by CIC to applicants they suspect may not have met residence requirement to become Canadian citizens. There are many flags that may trigger n RQ and some of these are: - outright declaration that you have not met physical requirement but...

Chingas, "Got called"? Literally? You mean you received a call from CIC inviting you to test? Please clarify. Or is this your way of saying you received a letter inviting you to write the test?

Thanks for sharing your test/interview experience. And your timeline of September 2014 application to May 2015 test (8 months) is one of the fastest we have seen for Calgary and does harbour hope for other applicants. Wishing you a quick oath invitation.

Thanks batmann. Sure you are next. As test dates are a week apart, lets hope you receive by end of next week. Wishing you all the luck!!! :) ;)

Thanks Calgary-timeliner.

Thanks abidcro. I have surely benefited from experience shared by members of the forum and will stay on to offer my 1 cent as well.

We (self, spouse, two kids) received invite to take the Oath of Citizenship. Letters dated 20 May and oath is for June 10. My timeline again: We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on March 10, 2014. We sent you a letter acknowledging receipt of your...

dbo73, I like your optimism (or is it sarcasm?) :) ;) Anyway, I don't mind a Canada Day Oath taking. It will be epic!

Calgary-timeliner, Nothing yet from CIC. Checked the mail box yesterday and just checked ECAS and no new development. On a good note, haven't heard from anyone who did test between April 23 - 30 in Calgary receiving invite to oath. Few applicants with test dates between April 16 and 22 did...

Gregmah, See my previous posting on test experience via this link: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/normal-processing-times-from-calgary-office-t181601.0.html;msg4244635#msg4244635 You only need the original copies of documents you used to support your application...

Congrats dbo73. This is interesting. Test invite came just after your last posting. Wishing you the best with test and interview preparation. There are great resources that folks have shared on this thread that will help you with the test. Is your ECAS updated yet with the test invite?
