March 2021 - Citizenship applications

[davepat170]

hi Guys, I have a question, I completed my oath last week and sent them scanned oath form. one minor thing I noticed was that, my scanned PDF was 2.2MB in size and was over their specifications in invitation email. I did receive their automated email once I sent them email with signed form attached. I wonder did anyone run into the same situation.

Thanks

If you read the instructions, it tells you what to do for technical issues.

Hey everyone!
Location: Toronto
Physical Presence Days: 1200
Application: Solo
Application sent: March 23rd, 2021 (Online)
AOR - 18th August 2021
Invitation to online test - 3rd November 2021
Completed test - 5th November

Now just going to wait. Took the test within 48 hours notice. Big fan of the Richmond public library questions, the Canada citizenship app (well worth the $1.99 for one week) and the discover Canada reading itself. It's also on YouTube if you want to listen at 1.5x.

Got my invitation to take the Oath for May 13th! Super excited to nearly be done with this. This updated occurred on May 2nd.

Im sure this gets asked a lot but when should expect the email for the actual oath ceremony so I can get sorted for it? Thank you for the support everyone!

I wonder how long it takes after the language, physical presence and prohibitions are marked as complete. That's the last step before Oath.

I got my date for the Oath ceremony today. It will be on May 18th. I need to know what my options since I will be travelling on the 27th. By then, I will not have a PR card and thus I won't be able to re-enter Canada. I don't think my certificate will be delivered by then also. What are your recommendations noting that postponing the Oath is not an option for me.

You can request for urgent processing of Oath certificate after ceremony & even try if they allow pickup. Keep passport application ready in parallel. & then walkin & request for urgent processing of passport (additional charge).

Where are you residing & which office is processing your application?
