    Exporting/Importing Vehicle - US to Canada ONLY!

    So I came in 2017, and imported at 2010 Nissan Maxima. I was on PR at the time, and was not offered a temporary import option... I also had to modify a couple things including the daytime running lights which were not required in the US. It wasn't super complicated, I got it quickly dont at...

    Same thing happened to me, I passed the test in March and then didn't hear back until August.

    Feedback from the experience of using a Canadian passport to visit Europe for "a racialized person"? . Landing at CDG, Paris, France.

    As a POC (African American) I've had a few of these experiences as well, and I have lived and traveled extensively in Europe. Honestly, they are hit and miss, and I've had similar experiences in both the US (where I'm from) and Canada (where I live now). I would say mostly these are few and...

    Took me nearly 3 weeks between decision made and oath letter.

    I received my letter one week after receiving the oath update on the platform. It looks like some people here in the forum are receiving them even up until the day of the ceremony, so it can be all over the place apparently.

    We completed the test the 1st week of March, and didn't hear a word until the first week of August. 5 months... and then everything happened in August! Could happen at anytime.

    Sure thing, you'll find all the info in my sig line below... I just received my official instruction letter for the oath ceremony this afternoon. It appears that although I live in Hamilton we're being handled by the Niagara Falls office.

    FYI - American-Canadian Dual Citizens

    That's great to hear. I have a month in between oath and first trip afterwards so I hope I can find a way to get the passport, otherwise I'll be prepared with the citizenship document.

    FYI - American-Canadian Dual Citizens

    I've also had this question... I have Oath next month with trips coming up soon after. I don't know if I'll have time to get my Canadian passport in time, and have been worried about making the trips. This is helpful, I'd be interested to hear the experiences of others on this subject and...

    Hopefully there's an update on the way for you. We completed our test March 6th, and didn't hear back until last week, so pretty much 5 months in between the test and updates to the rest. Now just awaiting oath date, hopefully sooner than later. Btw, for anyone wondering you can check the old...

    Hey All, My LS/PP/Prohibitions all updated this week to "complete" (see timeline below in my signature line). My app status still shows "In Progress", any idea if "Decision Made" is the next step? Anyone able to share how long after you've completed everything that it took for the next step?

    The online applicant status tracking portal, the status changed there before I received the letter. This was in reference a finger printing question.

    The email doesn't always come before the tracker shows the request, I've seen a mix of both. My email came directly to my inbox, but the tracker reflected if a day or two before I received the email.

    Raj is is right, I read the book once, and did a million practice tests, I did get tripped up on a couple questions but didn't feel in danger of failing the test. My wife read it, did practice tests, read it a 2nd time, and did more practice tests. She ended up with a perfect score.
