Yes. The oath invite did say to bring all original documents again, just as you do for the test/interview, but I didn't see anyone get asked for anything other than invite letter, record of landing and PR card.
Thank you, keeping the stuff around whenever they decide to finally do the invite. I did call a few weeks ago and was told that some kind of inquiry would basically delay the process so I've abstained from seeing what the delay is -- trying to be patient with this last step, even though the officer said after approving me post-test that I'd likely be sent a letter soon (in October) for oaths/ceremonies in December, and it's clearly coming and going with no invite.

Hi,

They requested a police certificate because you lived in a country for more than 183 days?
I think if you did not hear from them since that time, you can request the file notes through ATIP and you can see the progress of your file. It will take 30 days to receive.

Regards,

I have the same exact situation. I applied on May 1st, received fingerprints request in June and my application is in process since June 26. I haven't got any update since then.

Am I the only one who have oath ceremony on 17 Jan ? From May Excel sheet, I cant find anybody else with same date of oath.

By the way, Will they give us citizenship certificate on ceremony or will they mail us ? Person has to wait for two days before applying for passport after ceremony, so it sounds like they will give us certificate on same day of ceremony. But I just want to confirm if it is right.

I'm waiting for oath too. DM Dec 7th - nothing yet. For you nash_avatar it took 3 weeks I guess! Did you do your test in Scarborough?

It was Mississauga. Wait for 1 month, you will get it. This is christmas time also so there will be little margin of error in days. Good Luck.
