1 (800) 567-6868 It took 1 minute on hold first time I called, 15 mins second time I called.

note if I hadn’t called To get a tracking number I wouldn’t have known I got the passport to pick up at Canada Post, since they never left a notice at my door or in mailbox (tracking details say they did).

Application Sent: Oct 8, 2020 - Application Delivered: Oct 9, 2020 - Credit Card Charged: Oct 21, 2020 - Passport Printed: Nov 3, 2020 (called this day to inquire, no tracking given) - Passport and CC Tracking Details received: Nov 6 (called this day to inquire, said sent on Nov 4) - Passport...

Yeah I called and they said it was approved but that’s it. They also said they don’t send confirmation that anything has been sent for privacy reasons so I’ll just have to keep calling.

You’re lucky! They received my application on Oct 9. Nothing yet other than CC charge on Oct 21. Wonder if it has anything to do with it being 5 or 10 year passport.

Kitchener office: - Test Feb 6 - Virtual oath Aug 25 - Received certificate Sep 17 (3 weeks 2 days)

Don’t fill or sign anything prior. They’ll tell you what to do after the oath during the call and welcome any questions that you have.

In case any one is interested from a Kitchener perspective (timelines wise). Took the test in Feb, got DM Aug 5 and email asking to agree to virtual oath on Aug 7, invite to virtual oath received Aug 21, scheduled for Aug 25 (this morning).

She said “You can either scan or take a picture” so you’re good! also note, they didn’t ask me to cut up the card in front of them. I got to sign and cut after the call, and within 5 minutes I received an email with the instructions again, and to reply to that with the pictures.

I hAve my ceremony tomorrow, planning on just taking a picture and editing it to fit the image. There is honestly no difference in scanning or taking a pic, pics are probably of better quality.

Lol I get what your saying but be happy about the fact that Montreal seemed to process twice as fast as the GTA before that. It took you 5 months before applying to get and invite for the test but for most others that takes 12 months.

I did, this morning. - Applied Jan 2019 - Test Feb 2020 - No ceremony invite before COVID shut things down - Email asking if I agree to virtual ceremony on Aug 5 - Email inviting me to virtual oath ceremony Aug 19, scheduled for Aug 25 Kitchener office

Oh I know. On Sunday I started reviewing the process for renewing my PR. Hope I don’t have to. Took 6 months for DM after I passed the test in Feb.

After applying in Jan 2019, passing test Feb 6 2020, I finally had my status changed to DM yesterday and today I got an email asking if I agree to a virtual ceremony. The end is near.. Kitchener office

And today I received an email asking if I agree to the virtual ceremony! Hopefully the invite will come soon!

Been checking eCAS a few times per week since I took the test on Feb 6, and interestingly enough I checked right after my previous post above and saw my status had changed to Decision Made. Happy to see a sign of life in my application process. Btw I can almost guarantee my case was not...

Any Kitchener applicants that recently got their virtual oath scheduled? Or is the VO non-dependent on location?

What a joke for those who applied 6 months before you, took the test a month after you, and still haven’t heard anything. Best of luck to you though!

When did you take the test? I took mine Feb 6 and passed, hoping to get my dam citizenship in the next couple of months to avoid having my PR card expire..

Congrats, I am Kitchener too, took the test on Feb 6. When is your ceremony? Please let us know how many from Kitchener was at the same ceremony and took the oath.
