[Tubiti]

Officially Canadian today!

I'm awaiting my OHIP with my new last name so I can apply for the Canadian passport!

Thank you everyone for sharing the journey and your knowledge, I wish all of us the best!!!

congratulations! so you applied to change your surname? given name too? when should we be doing that, i guess you have applied to it before this process maybe? thanks!

Hi there, thank you hehe

No, I don't change my name, I only take my husband's last name and I want my new passport with my new last name (It's actually my last name-my husband's last name) We got married last year after I submitted my application.

I will need an ID with my new last name in order to apply for my passport (together with my marriage certificate, citizenship certificate, application form)

Yeah, looks like either people already got their citizenship or are still waiting.

So sorry for you! How long has it been since you had any update?

After I saw the due date (September 2026) for my LPP on the GCMS notes, I decided to check my tracker once a week, so I don't get disappointed every morning

I got an oath invite on my tracker on march 7th for the oath date of April 27th. It’s so far away. Does anyone else have a date for more than a month away ?

Still waiting for oath in the great province of Black Cash (BC) for almost 2 months after LPP.

Yeah, I've seen it! I guess you are residing in a small town/city?

I live in the Kitchener/Waterloo area in Ontario. It takes that long for a virtual ceremony?

In AB,
No update after citizenship test was given on 3rd Jan (Updated in tracker - 24th Jan)

Travel plans got impacted right now, as I presumed citizenship will be straightforward. Presumptions got shattered and how!
