    Do we have to be in front of the screen all the time for the online oath ceremony?

    No, it is one lengthy Zoom session. Bluetooth headphones with a good range will help not being stuck behind the screen ;)

    Do we have to be in front of the screen all the time for the online oath ceremony?

    I WFH and my oath was scheduled for 3:30 PM and wrapped up at 5:30 PM. I did not but I easily could have worked through it. As johnyrose mentioned, "officer check-in, judge's speech, oath taking [and] national anthem" are the only pieces during which you have to be engaged in. The major portion...

    Reschulded Oath Ceremony- Talk here

    Calgary Office is handling my application. I was originally scheduled for a Mar 15 '23 oath which I couldn't attend. Then I sent a web form request on Apr 15 which hasn't received any response. Curious to see how others' rescheduled oaths are coming along.

    Reschedule Oath Ceremony Mississauga Office For 1st March 2023

    Did your rescheduled Oath ceremony (or subsequent steps) get affected by the recent labour strike? I am in the same boat, however, I haven't had to wait as long as all of you have. I was oringially scheduled for a Mar 15 '23 oath which I couldn't attend. Then I sent a web form request on Apr 15...

    March 2022 - citizenship applications

    I received the request around a month ago. I did a little research in this thread and a couple other folks got it too. It can take 1-2 months to reach PP&L complete after document submission. So unfortunately this will be a speedbump in the already-slow citizenship application.

    PR Renew & PR Card Validity

    I agree with these answers. As a principle, PR Card ≠ PR Status. The card is used to enter Canada, so after your card's expiry, you will need to make alternate arrangements (Google "Enter Canada with an expired PR card") but remaining in Canada after PR card expiry is fine.

    Applying for NEXUS 3 months before PR card expiry

    Hi! Asking for a friend who is 3 months away from PR card expiry, would it make a difference to apply with the current PR card or wait till the PR card has been renewed (i.e. wait 2-4 months)? Essentially, is the NEXUS application tied to the validity period of the PR card on file? I assume not...

    Test status changed to "completed" today (Dec 16) and I took the test on Nov 7th, but somehow the update is dated Nov 10th. Why would anyone backdate an update? So the boss doesn't catch you!? LOL

    Delay in updating Test status to complete

    Same here. Test status changed to "completed" today (Dec 16) and I took the test on Nov 7th, but somehow the update date is Nov 10th. Why would anyone backdate an update? So the boss doesn't catch you!? LOL

    March 2022 - citizenship applications

    Question: The last update on my tracker was Nov 2nd informing me of my citizenship test window being from Nov 7 - 27. I took the test on Nov 7 early AM, unofficially scored 20/20 but my tracker hasn't updated since. It has been over a week (or 6 business days). Could it be that my test attempt...

    Applying for Super Visa while Visitor Visa application decision pending

    According to Canada.ca's Super visa (for parents and grandparents): Who can apply https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/parent-grandparent-super-visa/eligibility.html I imagine my 4+ months of paystubs would be sufficient.
