Looks like my update was missed. Just wanted to close the loop here: DM: Oct 14th Oath letter: Oct 23rd Oath date: Nov 17th

Hey mods -- please update my status: Got Oath ceremony notification this morning, to attend the ceremony on November 17th (Vancouver office)! Thanks for your hard work.

Woke up to a pleasant update on ECAS this morning -- Decision Made :)

It's strange, because when I called the call centre a few months ago they told me that all my checks were done and I just need to wait for my test invite. But during the interview, the officer told me that the security clearance is still pending. Not sure why they would give me conflicting...

Hey Vancouver folks, Had my test today. After the interview, the officer told me that they are still waiting for my security clearance. Wondering if anybody else who wrote the test here recently was told the same thing as I am trying to estimate how long this might take. Appreciate any responses!

Yay! Just got an email from IRCC inviting me to write the test on Sept 13th. Vancouver applicant here. Good luck to the rest of you waiting patiently :)

Looks like Vancouver applications are moving particularly slowly. Looking at the spreadsheet, lots of Dec '17 and Jan '18 applicants are yet to get a test invite, so it probably means a much longer wait for a Feb applicant like me!

Hello, I am in a similar situation as the OP and hope to get some answers. I (husband) am a Canadian PR with my Canadian citizenship application in progress while my wife is in the US on a H1B. My wife's employer has filed the I-140 petition -- her priority date is 2012 and she is several...

My application went into "In Process" on April 20th. Can someone please update my status? Thanks!

If I understand http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=365&top=5 correctly, even a naturalized Canadian citizen can pass on the citizenship to a child born outside Canada. The above statement that only a person born in Canada can pass on citizenship to a child born outside...

Received my AOR this morning (Mar 9th). Can you guys please update the spreadsheet? Thanks for all your hard work :)

Thanks -- 1132 days

Hi folks, Thanks for keeping track -- here are my details: Application sent: Feb 2nd Application received: Feb 5th Application type: Single Physical presence: 1132 days Location: Vancouver

Good to know! I think you are confused. Here's why: Case 1) Leave Canada on Jan 1st to visit USA and return on Jan 2nd. Here, the number of days spent in US = 2 Case 2) Leave Canada on Jan 1st, fly to country X via USA and return via same route on Feb 1st. Here, the number of days spent in US =...

Do you think it's a good idea to apply for citizenship excluding the PCC and then at the same time apply for a PCC from USA? Then if they do ask me for one, I can send it to them right away. Just wondering if this would affect my application in any way. I think you misread my question -- it is...
