I have a question and need opinions. Is it a bad idea for me to take my kids with me for my husbands oath ceremony? I really wanted us to go as a family and watch my husband take the oath and take pictures, but my friends and family are saying don’t take them they will get very tired and cranky.

Not sure what to do.. ? Should I just send my son to school and take my toddler and baby?
You can definitely take them but if they start getting cranky you'll have to leave. I would take them as it's a special day.

Hi folks,
A quick question. My wife has not changed her last name after our marriage, Is there anyway to change her maiden name to my last name on her citizenship certificate and Canadian passport, we are going for our oath ceremony in couple of days ? Kindly advice...
TIA.
You can use certificate of marriage for the passport application name change but I think changing the citizenship certificate is more complicated.

Received test invite for Feb 23 (Saturday) ...is it normal to receive invite for Saturday?

IP since July 24 I think
Location : Toronto

How much time does it take in general from test to oath ceremony? I looked at the sheet and the range is so high (15 days to 4 months )

Congrats!! Yes, it is normal. For an estimate, look at Test dates closer to you.

Hello,

My mother (Age:65 years) applied for her citizenship from MILTON as per the following details:

Application Sent : 27 March 2018
Application received: 01 April 2018
Location: Milton: ON
Physical presence: 1490 days
AOR: April 18, 2018
IP: June 20, 2018
Test: Pending
Oath: Pending

I wonder to note that by March 2019, her application shall be completed one year and till to day she couldn’t get her test date.

Could you guys extend your helping hands for the delay of her case. In past she travels non English/ French countries and we submitted her translated passport copy with her application.

Is it because of applying from Milton which delays her case.

Which city Milton applicants file being processed?

I appreciate your feed back.

Thanking you.
