right, thanks - decision made, so decision as in Oath taken and everything is validated, so next step will be passport submission?
I dont think its that far i think decision made is all other steps updated and awaiting oath where you cut up your PR card and front of them take the oath and they give you your citizenship document (either by mail or email or both). I think at that point the application moves to the Completed State

So I think my application is stuck in the Vancouver office, hence no movement in the last 2 months and there is no way for me to contact them directly, I raised a webform and got an automated response, do I need to call IRCC directly and ask them to move it to another office? do they accept such a request?

Are you from Vancouver ? I dont think applicants have any rights to ask to change the processing center, although the processing center is allotted by their own process. Where are you stuck, no test invite ?

I doubt they will consider such request. But ya I can understand your frustrations. I am from Vancouver and I am on the same boat.

Hi folks, ‘
i had interview and I was asked to send tickets of my travel in 2018 and 2019, because when I travelled at these time , canada airport didn’t stamp on my passport on my entry M! I found my 2019 ticket but don’t know what agency issued my ticket in 2018. What should I do ? What is your recommendation ? Anybody was on the same boat as me ?

Wait, I dont remember ever getting any stamp on passport when entering Canada as they scan the PR card and generate that travel slip (which we hand over to the agent when coming out).

Are you sure, they are looking for those stamps? It seems to me they are mistaken to request you of that.

as far as I know, you don't get an entry or exit stamp form Canada only the country you are visiting but they do stamp if you ask them nicely :p

you could make a freedom of information request to Canada Border Services Agency. They might have your entry and exist records. As far as I know they have been collecting them from airlines since 2016. Good luck.

Nice. Does everyone who submit passport copy get confirmation? Also, did you guys reply to the email or sent a new email?
I did not get any reply. I was asked to send Passport copy which I did in Mid October. But never got any acknowledgment or reply.

So I finally heard back today via an email asking me for an interview virtually via teams, is this normal? Has anyone been through this? what do they usually ask in these interviews?

Yes it's normal. They want to verify your application and ask you questions, no need to be worried. See this link https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/become-canadian-citizen/citizenship-test.html#:~:text=Special needs-,After the test: result, interview and next steps,-After the test

It's good that your file is moving again! Please let us know how it goes.
