Congratulations! When your ecas status changed to decision made?

The same day I got the email it changed to decision made. I had checked the day before and it was still in progress.

They usually dont ask but they mentioned the landing form before the interview after the test, and also if you are not able to show any document than you might have to come again for interview. There was one person who didnt produce passports so they asked him to go back and bring passport in an hour or if not possible then they will send you another date for new interview only.

I brought everything including residential lease, tax returns, travel tickets, extra educational certificates, proof of English language classes, and CLB test. but they only checked 2 photo ids including PRcard, checked all passports, and asked to sign a page for declaration.

thank you very much

To prove your travel you can show them the tickets if you travel by plane or bus, If you used your own vehicle then might be border crossing data might required.

I traveled to 2 countries by plane and I never kept the tickets should I be worried? when applying for citizenship I had given them permission to check with immigration how many times I have been in and out of the country.

Ceremony questions,

1) Do you need to have the oath fully memorized?
2) Is it taken at once by the entire room, or individually?

Thanks!

You don't have to be worry about but you your information in the application with respect to the dates need to be correct and there is 1% chance that they might ask for the proof of the tickets however in your case, your travel outside Canada were for short periods of time and only couple of times....then they may not ask for the proof but normally the tickets usually in your emails. I did print for the safe side.

Thanks!

usually its a group of people and someone from the authority recite the oath and you need to follow the words till the end. I am hoping they might not see everyone lips movement after the oath you need to sign a paper which is a written oath after that they will give you certificate of citizenship.

Hi everyone, just want to-ask if necessary to bring the letter of invitation in the exam day. I didnt receive the email cuz they have a wrong email add in the system. Awaiting for the mail but due to canada post strike i havent got anything. Getting worried...

Usually they are not sending by post anymore you need to call them to give them correct email id and ask them about the invitation.

Guys, so this happened last week. When I login to ecas. under the citizenship application status, it changed to decision made last monday. I had my test on october 3, so it took about 2 weeks to change to decision made. Now if I click on decision made, the last entry i see is still about the test invitatioon they sent on xxx etc. Does anything change inside too? If yes at what point? Any info would be appreciated if anyone else has been through the same

Hey, congrats. And no, nothing changes until you get the oath invitation.

HI Folks,
I am having my test on Thursday 1st October in Scarborough. I seem to be nervous even though I have gone through book and taken several sample tests from different sources and I have read up on the different political parties and leaders of canada, ontario and toronto.
Any friendly advise/suggestions from my friends in this group to do well in the test.
