I called to day to learn that my citizenship had been approved and I had been placed on a waiting list for the oath. That what the call centre agent, I spoke to, said. I passed my exam on the 17 of February.

Hi RussCan,

Congrats, I called them one last Friday they said my file is complete and with higher ranking officer and might get oath letter any time, when I called today a different agent said nothing called approved until one gets oath, and did not offer any details.......very unfortunate get a bad agent one phone. Anyways just wondering if he clearly said Approved ??

Thanks

a.R, wsm_al, Texan, shozee or all who got your oath by now,


I hope you saw RussCan's recent post that call center agent told him, his file has been approved and in queue for oath - when I called today call center agent was not willing to provide more details, he said your file looks good and would soon receive a oath letter when and where to go. He said that I am reached to a stage where no more info can be disclosed. Is this good or bad? I stressed him to see if he can say that my file is approved, he says sorry sir you are at a point no details can be disclose further but you will receive your letter.....not sure what this means.

Just wondering what was your experience when you called Call Center just before you got your oath letter, did they ever mention that you were approved and are in Oath queue for date schedule?

Thanks

I just called and the agent said it is irrelevant that decision is made on your application or Not
but no oath ceremony has been scheduled yet , it could be done tomorrow or can go up to Nov 2015.

Exactly - similar answer to me, I believe they approved it and placed in the queue.

pls refer to my previous notes. i had the same experience and received the letter a week later.
I would not worry, i think some agents enjoy making other people worry..

wait for couple of weeks, if you have not received the letter call again
