Thanks for the discussion. In my OP I should have put the word suffer in inverted commas as it really can't be considered suffering. Its interesting that everyone has a different experience. Within a year of living here I felt I had a good understanding of the political field although I didnt...

I'm not sure if this is the right place however I wanted share some of my thoughts and experiences from day one to becoming a Canadian citizen. My journey is not exactly like most, I originally came to Canada on a working holiday visa for one year, I got work in an area I really enjoyed and...

Thank you for your response, sorry if I asked some questions that had the answers in the link. I'm very lucky to have come this far but thought it was all over last week. As all of you know it will be nice to see the back of the paperwork. I feel I have completed forms regarding where I have...

So after the excitement of getting my citizenship last week and believing all stress and paperwork is behind me. I'm now back as confused as ever. First off is the fact I have to send off my new cert. of citizenship, seems a little crazy / risky to be honest. Next getting a signature of someone...

Yes I was told 3 to 5 months after the test by the person who interviewed me, I know they want to manage expectations but people have stuff to plan etc...

Application Sent April 16, 2014 In Process June 30, 2014 Citizenship Test February 20, 2015 Oath Ceremony May 15, 2015 Nearly there now!

Just a letter in the mail and when I checked the website it had updated. Id checked two days before and it wasn't updated.

Congratulations! I did my test with you but no word yet. I applied about a week or two before you in April 2014. Hopefully soon for me!

I was told 3-5 months but that doesn't align with the times people are reporting here.

I applied April 2014 and passed my test Feb 19 2015. However my passport is expiring (in may) so I need to send it to my home country to renew. It will take approx 1 month. Is it worth the risk to get it back before the oath? What will happen if i don't have it at the ceremony? Do I need to...

Yes! Any indication of when that might be? All I was told was 3-5 months...

Thank you! I was worried about up coming vacations!

My understanding is you need a Citizen Certificate to apply for the passport and that takes 5 months to get.

My understanding is that I have to hand in my PR card at the oath ceremony. Do they then issue me an alternative card. How do I continue to travel after I become a citizen? My understanding is it takes months to get a passport. Can I just enter and exit Canada on my old country's passport?
