@SFCanuck Thank you for this information. I'd be curious to know which couriers they have contracts with or if it is all FedEx. Also, how did you check the status? Did they send you a message with information on how to do so (a link, information that needed to be entered) like they do with the...

@SFCanuck - Congrats on getting your Canadian passport. Did you already have FedEx alerts set up or is this something that just happened because of the passport? Did you know it would be sent back FedEx in advance? I wonder if they just send it back the same way people send it to them? Was your...

@Ivandrea7 - Congrats on your citizenship!!!

Does anyone here have any experience with a passport that was sent to an address in the states? If so, how do they mail it? Courrier? Canada Post/USPS? Is a signature needed? Can you track your passport application status? Can you track the package itself on its way back to you? How long did it...

@Ivandrea7 - Congratulations. I know you've had to wait a bit of time since getting the decision made notice. Sending you all the best for these last steps!

Oath complete! Thank you all for your encouragement through this process. I am sending good thoughts your way for this process. :)

Anyone here who recently received either a paper or e-cert, able to let me know how long they took? I initially wanted paper but with the holidays I am wondering if e-cert would be best. Though I don't know what the usual delivery time for Vancouver office applicants is for either option. Thanks!

Do you mean the IDs AND the citizenship certificate or just the IDs as my question is specific to what they do with the paper certificate for an in-person application. Thanks for clarifying.

Are there any Vancouver office applicants that have recently received their PAPER certificate able to tell me how long it took to arrive. My oath is the 21st. So, while I was initally thinking the paper option, with the holidays as I am guessing it will take longer than usual to arrive. But I...

I am hopeful someone here who has recently applied in person for their first passport can confirm for me whether or not they take your original paper citizenship certificate if that is the kind you have. I see on their sites that if you apply in person they just check your IDs and hand them...

I am tremendously appreciative of your continued support and encouragement to think good thoughts regarding this entire process. Thank you!!

Does anyone know if them sending you the oath information email can trigger a ghost update on the tracker? I am hoping that's why my tracker now has 12/15/23 in the upper right hand corner with no new information. Before this the date was 12/13/23 with a Dec. 11 update of oath in progress and a...

Thank you for letting me know. That sounds woefully lax sending process for such an important document! Glad you had no issues and got it. How long did it take to arrive? What area are you in? Thanks so much again for answering my questions.

@Sinyk - As a follow-up question, is the paper certificate sent just by regualr mail via Canada Post or is it certified needing a signature or done by courrier? Thanks!

I was not sure, but I jsut got my notice, and it is Dec. 21st - virtual. Thank you for everything you've done in answering all my tagging you questions!!

It seems that lately they are sending an email to anyone regarding how to access the e-cert, no matter what is marked on the actual application. Since I got that the day before my tracker updated with oath in progress & oath date, I thought I'd include it. Perhaps, it will become a data point...

Sending good thoughts your way!!!

Does anyone happen to know when the site listing the citizenship ceremonies usually updates? The site says weekly. So, far it only goes through the 20th and since my oath is scheduled for the 21st, I am curious. @forw.jane or @Miss bee, perhaps you have insights. You've both been so helpful...
