Citizenship question

Hi All

Hope you can help, once the test has been completed....how sooner do you then take the oath ceremony once you have successfully completed the test?

Also if unforeseen circs arise....can the test be postponed at all?

Also if we move address if this relatively straight forward to notify them?

Thanks
Dal

1) Some people get a test in the morning and an oath in the afternoon. But that's mostly for people leaving hundreds of kilometers from the closest IRCC office.

2) It can be postponed once. A second miss means your application is abandoned.

3) It can be done via the website, but takes some time (usually 2 weeks) to show up on your account.

Sometimes it can be months between test and oath. You need to be very flexible.

Many Thanks for the answers!

You're welcome!
But at @zardoz said, it can take a long time between test and oath. I just listed the soonest (and very unlikely for 99.9% of people) possibility
In practice, pass the test, then forget about it until you receive a new mail from them

Thank you and one final question, the police clearance cert, I need to get one for myself and my wife as we resided in the UK just over 3.5 years ago, I'm assuming it can't be older than 6 months old.....I mean from when we receive it to when we are putting in the application?
