Thank you so kindly. All of you have been very gracious and supportive. I couldn't have done it without everyone on this forum. I look forward to oath ceremony and for sure I intend to enjoy every day in between now and then. Thank you again for all the support..

Well, it took 30 days [calendar days]. I wish the process was faster. How long do you think it will take for the oath letter?

Hello shakeyy
During the post test interview, the interviewer mentioned that he was going to request for my travel records from CBSA since i didn't have stamps in my passport and traveled lots between Canada and US, then 8 days later i received the CIT 0520. So is was purely based missing stamps...Best wishes!!

did you travel by land? and how long was duration of your travel?

i also traveled 3 or 4x a year in the last 4 years and each trip is for for 7 to 12 days each travel to the US... i go on vacation to home country for longer period like 3 to 4 weeks but that was twice in the last 4 years... so im wondering if its also a potential RQ for me.

I have missing stamps esp recently i just scan my PR card and don't face the border people.. US also doesn't stamp once or twice.. I travel by AIR and all my travels is on I94. do you think it will cause RQ too?

i am also employed since I landed and didn't have a period where i didnt work except when i first landed and i didnt work for 3 weeks and my recent lay off in october

I traveled by road biweekly for almost 4 yrs..no stamps for all that time..you will probably get a CIT 0520 based oh what you posted here. Try and start gathering docs so you can submit them right way..if they don't request for them, no harm. Best wishes

its crazy! do they want us not to go on vacation? haha.. i read some people didnt have stamp and they were ok

i thought its kind of a thing that sometimes u dont get stamped. maybe a contributing factor for you is frequency since you travel biweekly. my test is on feb 2. so i'll see if i get that RQ
