Hi there. You should see the citizenship process change within the next few weeks (if there are no delays). Mine changed in mid November then a week later moved the citizenship process moves to "In Process" and an oath email was sent about 3 days later.

Oath completed Friday. It felt good. While the wait was long and depressing the process wasn't that bad. Eight years from Landed Immigrant to Permanent Resident to Citizen! It feels good. My daughter said, "Great, now you're Canadian like me!" It means so much to her.

Ahh, I had no idea. I started my application in Abbotsford and it was handled by Vancouver. But a coworker also going through the process lives in Langley and hers is handled in Surrey (or at least according to her emails). I wonder if there is a diversion plan where if there is a certain number...

You submit your application to Sydney, NS. Then it goes back to the citizenship process office nearest where you live. If you live in Vancouver, it should will go there. If you live in Surrey, it will go there. Submit a request for a follow up on your application if you haven't done so.

There might be a discrepency of information that was provided by CBSA. That did happen to me on one of my trips out of Canada. When reentering the agent took my passport and could not scan it because "The computer was not loaded up." Knowing this could have been an issue in the future (this was...

What’s your processing office?

Hello: As far as I know if you experience any technical issues you can relog on and but the time continues to count down. Per the letter I received: "You must ensure your internet connection is stable for the duration of the test. In case you have been disconnected, you can use the same link...

UPDATE! November 23, 2021 - Oath Letter December 3, - CEREMONY! Hopefully this gives hope to people in the Vancouver office!

Congratulations on citizenship and thank you for maintaining the tracker!

Congratulations! Hopefully I'm not far behind you. Van is handling my application too and went to DM on the 10.

Look at the email address that you receive notifications from. Mine come from DNCITVANTESTS@cic.gc.ca with "VAN" indicating Vancouver.

Mine did the same last week. I'm looking at the tracker and dividinng the months up processing office (in my case, Vancouver). I've seen the timeline from Decision Made to Oath Letter/Ceremony vary on the tracker from 2 weeks to 6 months. Also to note, CIC/IRCC is stating their processing times...

When you and your spouse take the test, make sure you do it separately with neither looking over each other's shoulders. Your webcam comes on and monitor your surroundings as your take the test. I saw my image in the bottom right corner of the screen.

I had a coworker inquire with an MP she worked alongside and about a week after we all talked, my status went to Decision Made. If you know someone that knows an MP in your area, see if they can help you get in touch with them and they might be able to help.That kind of wait is unacceptable no...

I'd submit an inquiry to find out what is going on.

Update from Vancouver: Language skills, prohibitions, and physical presence are completed as of November 10! The new portal doesn't show "Decision Made" but the old one does show DM when I looked this morning. Now waiting for Citizenship ceremony to start.

Hello June 2020 citizenship applicants. I've decided to pop up on here as I sent my app in June and the admin of the spreadsheet put me in that section of the excel document. Updates are in the signature. Vancouver office looks slow so I'm not holding my breath. :) Cheers everyone!

Thank you very much for the info. Will these be emailed or by regular mail? I made the scans and print copies today so when they are asked I can submit.

I was looking at the Excel document for 2020 applicants and I see some people are being required to submit their passport scans. Is this just the picture of the bio pages with picture or is it all of the pages? I submitted both bio pages of my passport (as I have one expired one from 2018). I...

It was the election. To secure more votes the party in power will do what they can to secure more votes on the citizenship side. But after the election, the momentum stops since they got what they want. :) He he he
