Hi there! I finally got my invitation to take the citizenship test. I have a few questions around timing. I need to travel out of the country in late March and will be gone for 3 weeks. Assuming I pass the citizenship test, how soon should I expect an invitation to the Oath Ceremony? Is this a...

Thanks for your responses everyone, your responses have been extremely helpful! I was not aware you can still apply inland if out of status and that you can continue working past the IEC work permit expiration while in implied status. Thanks much!

Hello, Thanks for your responses! I have two further questions around implied status: 1) I assume that she has implied status as long as my application is not rejected. My concern is if for whatever reason my application gets denied two months down the line (because everything is backed up...

Hi Everyone, Thank you for your advice. I'm clear now on how to fix the errors on the documents. I now have two questions: 1) My OWP application documents were not returned to me. Should I reprint the paperwork for it and resubmit it or should I assume that the OWP application is being...

One more question - for the OWP should I enter my own UCI or enter my Wife's UCI?

Thank you! I already paid online for the fees associated with getting a new OWP + Biometrics. I'm now paying the fees for the PR Application and there's a Sponsorship fee ($75), principal applicant processing fee ($475) and right of permanent residence fee ($490). I also see that they also...
