Hi All, I have a question regarding oath ceremony. I got the invite for it and it says that for emailing the oath form the subject line should be Oath Form - Conducted on Date & Time along with Clerk Initials.

Is this clerk, will be the person who will be verifying my details, address etc whose initials I need to put on the subject line? Can someone please confirm?
I have the same question. I am just gonna ask them during the ceremony or maybe they will clarify it themselves as I bet others would have that same question. Instructions are unclear from the email atleast.

I tried urgent processing in September with all genuine relevant documentation, my both parents were sick. I don't like calling so never called. Never got approved I guess. Citizenship test was completed on 28th June 2021.

Yesterday send 2 web forms with a downloaded application for CSIS job, it's requiring Citizenship. Have 26th deadline to apply.

Not sure if this is they accepted or old one accepted or generally it was processed. Now it is showing all files completed except ceremony and Decision made today (old tracker). Hope the ceremony won't take long again.

Whatever it could be, a movement in the file after long time. I'm happy.

Please update the tracker with my information. @softwaretesting Thank you :)

Thanks for the timeline update. I added you to the excel tracker. Just curious to fill in the holes...
1) did you apply as a single applicant or with multiple applicants?
2) When did ECAS show that your file was in process?
3) What day did you get the citizenship invite?

Hi,
Single applicant
In process March 8th-AOR date
I’m not sure what you mean by citizenship invite, if you mean oath email, I have not received it. If you mean test invite December 18th.

Hey,

Today my process finally moved.

Language skills, Physical presence and Prohibitions checks were completed yesterday, January 25th.
ECAS show as "Decision Made", but with no date, so I would say to use the date above.

Waiting for the OATH invitation letter.
Great news! Another January paper application with DM! So glad to see all of the movement in January 2022, 1 year after we all applied! Updated tracker for you. Hopefully you get an oath date in the next two to four weeks!
