November 2018 - Citizenship Applications

[HS2018Nov]

Hi,

We have our test on Monday at 8:15am Scarborogh center. To be safe, we'll keep a buffer of 30-45 mins and arrive early. Is this sufficient?

Does anyone know what time the facility opens? We don't want to be waiting outside in cold for too long!

Thanks

Hi,
Checked my Ecas, shows They sent oath invite on Jan 15th for Jan 31st oath ceremony. Please update the spreadsheet . P.S. even though the status shows that the mail was sent on Jan 15th, I have no email from them, so I am guessing it’s coming via regular mail. Will be calling CIC next week if I don’t have it by mid week next week

My ECAS shows:

1. Appl received on November 2018.
2. Test November 27, 2019 at 9:30 AM.
3. We sent you a notice on January 15, 2020 to appear and take the oath of citizenship at the citizenship ceremony to be held on January 30, 2020 at 1:45 PM. The notice you will receive will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us.

I have not received any Oath letter by email. Any suggestion?

Do they send Oath letter by email or paper mail???

Before i received all communications via email

 

[jasmeet198]

Not necessarily. I received test invite by email but oath incite by mail.

DID YOU GET PAPER MAIL OR EMAIL FOR OATH INVITATION?
IF PAPER MAIL. WHEN DID YOU RECEIVE THE PAPER MAIL?

DID YOU RECIEVE PAPER MAIL ON THE DATE SHOWN IN ECAS :
We sent you a notice on XXXXX, 2020 to appear and take the oath of citizenship at the citizenship ceremony to be held on XXXX, 2020 at 1:45 PM.

I am a November 2018 applicant and I received my letter to attend the Oath ceremony in a week. Unfortunately, I do not have an original COPR document with me (lost) however I do have a copy. Will the copy suffice? Or will they send me back on the Oath day?

Note: I have been asked to visit the Mississauga office. Also, due to short notice I do not have much time to request a Replacement copy of the COPR.

In letter they ask for original copy of COPR, but they are not verifying the COPR. They take the PR card only and will give back the COPR to us. So carry the copy of COPR, if they ask I think you can explain the situation.

Hi admin,
Please fix the spreadsheet for my oath dates. I got the oath invite on Jan 15, 2020 and ceremony is on Jan 31 2020. It was added as 2019 by mistake which may mess up the averages.
Thanks

Hello everyone,

Initially I had my oath date for Jan 17 2020 but on same day I had my wedding so I requested them to reschedule. Today I received a call from Mississauga office if I can attend Feb 4 2020. After replying yes, in next 5 mins I received an email for oath invite for Feb 4 2020.

Anyone got test invite? Still waiting here - Scarborough. I keep calling them and they say to "wait"... getting frustrated.
