Scarborough Office. Nah I dont think you get any email notification for test status changing to "Completed". I check my account multiple times a day lol not because I am anxious (probably) but it became more like a habit lol

I have checked almost all pages of the 2020 application tracker. Seems like I am the only one who has'n got all 3 of the Checks after the exam at once. Only 2 out of 3. Feels like they forgot to check the box :)))

BTW thanks, rajkamalmohanram, for tracking everything

This happens sometimes and it is usually the physical presence OR prohibitions that is pending. I hope you get your application approved soon.

Good luck!

Well, that's reassuring. I trust your knowledge more than their response, which i am probably not getting.

Strange that nothing has been requested.

Also looks like citizenship ceremonies are being set for February now. Virtual ones. I wonder what they would have done if they were in person...

Hi All,

On, August 27th we got a communication from IRCC i.e. send Passport Color Copies or Travel Document of me and my wife...When i checked today(August 30th 2021) morning me and my wife application has been updated with 'Decision Made' my daughter application is still 'In progress status'

1. Usually, how long will it take to complete the Kids application change to 'Decision Made status', after parents application has been processed ?
2. Now, do I need to send Passport Color Copies of Me and my wife ?
3. After updated to 'Decision Made' status how long will it take to get 'Oath Date' my application is processing in 'Scarborough Processing Center' ?

Can anyone suggest me on above points? based on it I can change my travel plan, I have booked tickets for Sep 3rd 2021...

Thanks,
Rams...

There were a couple of reports of people getting in-person ceremony requests. In the near future, the situation might change where they MIGHT conduct both in-person and video oath ceremonies to reduce the backlog but we'll have to wait until the official word comes out to be sure.

Congrats. Based on the trends and other threads in 2020, oath ceremonies seem to be happening around Q1 2022 now. But again it is IRCC we are talking about and it is based upon your case. So expect Q1 2022 now and enjoy your travel. Hopefully you will have good news and confirmation once you are back or during your vacation.

I would send the docs that they requested, even if it is decision made. You don't lose anything. May be this might result in them closing your application and sending an Oath Ceremony date.

Is it better to keep all passport pages scanned and ready incase request comes through? Also are translations required for all exit/entry stamps within the 5 year period only ?
