    Hi ladies and gents, I just finished my oath ceremony, it was a lovely event with 62 people in attendance. (Vancouver). Instead of an e-certificate, they provided us with a hard copy, which is totally fine (trying not to be picky!). Wishing you all the best, and to those still waiting for the...

    Just be patient for a few more days you’ll receive the invitation for your oath ceremony soon. You’re all set, so no need to panic!

    Let’s take a step back, and I hope you don’t take this personally. You seem to be focusing on one word of mine out of the entire context. As I’ve already explained, I used "privilege" purely in a practical sense and not in relation to legal constitutions or anything of that sort. The right you...

    I went through a comparable experience with my Oath ceremony. My tracker portal updated on May 9, showing my ceremony was set for May 30, but the official letter didn’t arrive until May 14. In my situation, that left a gap of around five days between the two notifications.

    Legally, citizenship for eligible permanent residents is indeed a right, as the Citizenship Act establishes a clear pathway with defined criteria. If those criteria are met, the government is obligated to grant citizenship, barring exceptional circumstances (e.g., fraud or security risks)...

    To clarify, I used "privilege" in a practical sense. You're correct that it's your right to apply for citizenship, but it can be seen as a right with conditions since it's not an automatic entitlement. You must meet specific requirements to be approved.

    I completely agree with you. Don’t stress yourself out we all wish the process could move faster, but at the same time, this isn’t a golf club membership we’re applying for. Citizenship carries significant weight, and it’s understandable that the process can take time. It’s not a guaranteed...

    I was in the same situation. You will receive an official invitation soon. The PDF you receive will include all the information you need about the oath ceremony what to expect, what to bring, and step-by-step instructions on what to do.

    Good luck! See, it didn’t take long. It’s clear that IRCC is catching up and speeding up the process, especially in Vancouver. Ceremonies are being scheduled almost every other day, sometimes even twice a day. I hope that everyone still waiting will be processed soon and can begin their new life...

    You don't need to schedule anything — you'll be invited to the oath ceremony. Since they've already sent you instructions on how to download your citizenship certificate, I assume the invitation is on its way. By the way, congratulations and all the best!

    Dress nicely, show up, take the oath, be happy, and celebrate. It’s a meaningful moment and there are so many people still waiting for their turn to experience it.

    I received the official invitation for the ceremony on May 30, but when I checked the ceremony website, there’s nothing listed for Vancouver on that date. I’m not sure how or when they update the site and to be honest, I don’t really care, as long as I have the official invitation. By the way...
