During the address part, I have a mailing address which is different from my home one. What do they ask to verify, as I haven’t been at my home address for over a year. I presume at this stage the oath is now a formality and if they had wanted to interview me about being in England etc. They...

Kind of makes the system and process look poor when i've been outside Canada all this time, to then say "well come back for the oath" then you can leave again...

On a separate note - once i've taken the oath is there a chance I will still get interviewed?

I will come back to Canada eventually - when? Who knows, another version of Covid and I don't want family being without me here. I think that live/reside etc. is all subjective, can see why Canada struggles with immigration when they make it very difficult and still try to operate on a paper...

I left Canada one month after applying for citizenship and been in England since - Dec 2020 Friends address is fine for mailing and home, personally I'd keep only Canadian addresses on there - they have no idea if you are actually there or not unless they really deep dive into things...

To be clear, when I said I could attend in July/August that doesn't mean I would be living back in Canada. I have other responsiblities from Covid that mean essentially I will be between Canada and England for the next year or so at least. I want the happy, easiest path and with IRCC i've...

Thanks all I think you've managed to put it in perspective for me and ill fly back. Whilst not ideal I'd rather do it now than get into the whirlpool conversation with IRCC over personal situation. Even if im there for a week, do the oath and leave then it makes much more sense than if...

hi all thought i'd make this thread separate as i've seen a few differing responses. i am currently out of the country but received my oath invite to do it via zoom. I can see on CIC website it does say about contacting them to explain the situation, has anyone successfully explained the...

how did this turn out - did they let you do it outside of canada?

hi all today i recieved my virtual oath invite but im currently in england, its only 2ish weeks notice and I dont think I can get back in Canada in time. has anyone done the virtual oath outside of the country? please advise urgently on steps for this if known - much appreciated cheers

hi guys I got my oath invite through today - but im in England - it says virtual ceremony and i've heard of people taking it ouside of Canada now. any urgent advise on this welcomed thanks

All my checks, language, presence have changed to complete this week. Back ground verification is still in process. I am presuming this is good news, I am ottawa office. could I potentially get oath invite in next few months?

Hi all, I completed my test in early April and then last week my tracker had update to “background check” in progress, I believe that’s the correct term without checking. Is this the next stage before oath invite and is this particularly long?

did anyone take the test outside of canada and then have an online interview? they mentioned that to me....I am sure they want to confirm when I intend to return. Answer would be simple lol - once you have given me citizenship since beginning this in Dec 2020

Would it be fair to say that I will have oath invite before my PR runs out in Novemeber?

Not at all passive aggressive - if I wanted to be aggressive in my response I would have been but there is no need. You called it a waste of time, I am pointing out that in my opinion I disagree. If you feel that strongly about what's happened in the past, then why choose Canada?

I was hoping that after completing the test this month (Dec 2020) applicant it was a sign of happy days ahead. Seems to me that I could be stuck waiting for oath invite for another 6 months+

Whilst I agree that getting confirmation you are a citizen and then the ability to obtain a passport should be separated out from the actual oath ceremony, to classify the ceremony as a "huge waste of time" clearly you have missed it's importance from a tradition, historic and respect point of...

Finally got a response from the email address about taking test internationally. Took at the weekend and passed 20/20 - all those months and months of preparation paid off. How long until are we seeing from test to DM and oath invite, is 6 months reasonable?

Got a response from the email address previously posted after 3 chases - completed test on weekend 20/20 so happy days :)
