I would say not long after that. Maybe by the Monday/Tuesday of the 28th June. We had sent the oath forms in immediately after the oath ceremony, but I recall asking the officer if the oath certificates can be expedited as we have travel plans over the summer. They said no promises but I would...

So we received the DM notification by March 1. The oath invite came on June 9th. We also got our local MPs office involved as we had booked flights for August 2022. I had informed IRCC about our flights by Feb 2021. Good luck

We did our oath ceremony on June 23, 2022 from Mississauga. Received the certificates less than 2 weeks as promised by the officer. I had started with our passport application and getting organized soon after the oath and when we got the certificates on Tuesday July 5, we only had to take the PP...

I think that only applies if you drive across the border from US. Not flying in though

I always thought that fingerprint requests meant there was a hit on the criminal background, so someone with the same name in the database. They ask Fingerprints to make sure it’s not you. Or it could be someone with the same name and or dob who was previously rejected?

Try reaching out to your local MPs office. We did that and I am not sure if it did the trick but one week later we got the oath call up. It was 3 months for us from DM in March.

My family and I completed our oath ceremony this afternoon. Thank you to each and everyone for the many questions answered these past many months of waiting. There were 75 candidates from Mississauga that were taking the oath and are among Canada’s newest citizens! The judge said that in March...

Congrats finally done with IRCC!!! Took more than 2 months for passport? I guess even though you did walk in, you didnt need urgent or travel within 45 days or whatever that cut off is. Wowza. We have been invited for oath next week. Finally after 19 months since application sent in. My friend...

In my humble opinion it is not needed. The UAE is was their country of residence before they came to Canada. In the examples on the official guide, they talk about someone born in India and lived in the USA before moving to Canada. In both examples a PCC is not needed. Although it is valid for...

For us it was a little more than 3 months for Mississauga. Received the oath invite email today. Ours is in 10 days, praise God! I hope and pray everyone that has been battling for 18+ months gets theirs processed asap.

A friend of mine applied in January 2022 as a family application and they have already been cleared background, and test window has been scheduled as of end May. That is very quick in my opinion even their acknowledgment was done within a month. We are Nov 2020 applicants and waiting still...

Ok fair point but how will the kid apply? There is no way they can apply on their own then as they are not over 18 hence forcing the mom to apply as a family application. That’s the point I was making that is applicable to the OP mom’s situation. I suppose the mother could apply on her own and...

Sorry but what do you mean by bad information? Xuan has given correct facts. Online applications are for single applicants only at this stage. Later on in 2022 they will open it up to family applications but at this moment, family applications have to be summited by paper application only...

You are talking about prohibitions. Such a case with a civil matter anyway and not a criminal offence. I don’t think you have anything to worry about. Consult with a good lawyer as I know that a buyer purchases a home as it stands and that’s the point of a home inspection or run the risk without...

Applied for ATIP in Feb 2022 under access to information and received in 1 month (paid $5) and then applied under my wife’s profile for her file in April 2022 under privacy act (paid nothing) and it took 1 month. Both had the same details and under the agent notes you can actually see when...

Give it a day or two. It’s a normal lag between the two systems.

Exactly what wksj said. It’s a clear cut one. Many people (myself included) mistakenly assumed that as you went back to your country of origin or where you were before you became a PR that you don’t need one. That caveat only applies if before you became a PR you travelled from said country and...

Firstly congratulations. The birth of a child in Canada has no bearing on your citizenship application. Not as far as I know. Please have a look on the forum that was a recent case where this was discussed too. All of the best with the little one!

Slight lag between the two portals. You will see DM in old ECAS. Now just waiting on oath. Depending on the office, could be a few weeks or a few months for that final leg. I hope it’s sooner than later, as you have been waiting for 2 years.

Try calling at 8am. I was lucky once got through at 11:20 and stayed on the line waiting for like 45 minutes before I spoke to an agent.
