Thank you. I'm still waiting for the certificate. I was told the window is 2-4 weeks. Before and after entering the Ceremony, the IRCC officer asked if I have planned to travel in the next few weeks. I guess, if you need a passport sooner, you can request an urgent processing.

I'm a Nov 2019 applicant. I just finished taking my Oath on Nov 17, more than 5 months after my Citizenship test in May 2021. All of my criteria changed to Completed status in July, except the Ceremony one. In late October, I sent IRCC an inquiry regarding my nearly expire PR card. Not sure if...

Hi Hi, Could I ask about your decision? Did you reschedule your test and heard back from IRCC. I'm in the similar situation here. I'm out of Canada and have just received the invitation. To be honest, I don't want to flight back at this time since I'm traveling with two small kids and the...

Hello all, Is anyone in similar situation as mine? IRCC started to process my application in Feb 2020, so far I haven't heard of anything yet. The thing is I'm still out of the country (I applied when inside Canada) with my husband and kids who are Canadian citizens. We're currently in a place...

Hello, My citizenship application was sent back to me due to incomplete information. The date and signature for physical presentation form are missing. Can I re use that application, sign, date and send back to CIC? Or if I have to prepare new application. I’m currently outside of Canada. Could...

Thank you for your response. I guess he has not been in school for at least a year. He was traveling back to home country for 6 months this year, and recently came back. Custom border still let him in so I’m not sure if the school has reported it to IRCC. That’s why I’m wondering if he changes...

If you are under 18 or 19 in some provinces, you’ll need a custodian. Typically the school helps you find one (usually a school staff) if you don’t know anyone in Canada. So do ask your school and keep the info of that custodian handy. The school will require your parents to sign and notarize...

Hello, My relative wants to send her younger kid to a high school in Vancouver, Canada. Her older kid is already in Canada studying in a college. The older kid applied under the Study Direct Stream so she didn't have to provide proof of financial support. She just wonders how much of financial...

Would change in address cause any delay since we currently moved, although he updated the new address the day he went for the test in feb? Thank you.

I see, CIC received his application on Oct 2017 and The status is "In Process". The paper his received after taking the test suggests that he will be notified about the ceremony after 2-3 months, that's why we are a bit worried. Thank you

He attended the CIC in Surrey, BC. Thank you for your prompt reply.
