    Citizenship - decision made in ECAS Feb 16, 2018 but no letter yet

    And it all varies where you live. I will mention again of a lady who took the oath in Prince George BC the same day she passed her test! I've applied for citizenship after some of my friends and I ended up taking the oath before them. A lot of variables are involved with the timing. You will get...

    Mine was a little hectic due to my lengthy travel record and the CO and myself being plagued with that flu, which made it difficult for both of us to understand each other. Nonetheless, that phase is now over and as you said it's really straightforward process. For those of you who rmember when...

    I'm sorry to hear about your loss, Balboul. They might ask such a question (just for curiosity) but having employment is not a prerequisite for citizenship.

    Balboul, it appears that your application will be smooth sailing based on what you share. In order to receive your test results, you have to see the CO who will check in with you, then share your results with you. Your interview may be quick since you did not travel too much. I took the test...

    Ok no worries. According to the CIC website, they only test and interview people between the ages 18 and 54. If anyone else had/did not have an interview experience, let's hope they share. I want to also add that my interview experience was long because I traveled a lot in the past and they...

    Mine is Surrey and see my time line posted below. What's your office again? I've also spoken to a few other colleagues who applied for citizenship before me and my oath date is before theirs. I can't explain that one.

    Apparently, the interview process is becoming a common practice now for for every applicant to experience after sitting their test. CIC wants to use this opportunity to review your application with you in person and determine whether or not you've met the criteria (including knowing English or...

    My time line This should give you all an idea of what the time line is gonna be like. Bear in mind, this will vary from office to office as some of you mentioned. Please make sure that your relevant details are all kept up to date and keep an eye on your ECAS, e-mail (including spam folder) and...

    no, it was not updated to something else immediately. I've noticed from past experiences they sometimes take a long time to update it. for example, after I became a PR. the ECAS stated that it was still in process, then finally it updated to the right message. Remember, the ECAS is humanly...

    Congratulations to you but I'm sorry to hear about your wife. Tell your wife to cheer up, as she has a second chance to retake the test. I hope the CO gave you guys instructions on what to do next and what's to come. In this case, your wife will receive another invitation to re-take another...

    I received a physical letter. If you do receive that letter, do not lose it. you will need it for your test date. Keep checking your emails including the spam folder. Good luck.
