Ceremony in Ottawa is very limited.Ottawa really sucks.!!

I agree with you it's very limited, in Montreal there is 4 ceremony in month in different local office , and now they made a new law if you take citizenship test and you pass they give you oath letter in the same day and they do the ceremony in that day , I have freinds sent them a lettre to appear and write the test written on it with that notice that mean everything will be done in same day ,I hope that will happen in Ottawa office too.

I'm taking the test at the end of the month. Have we heard if there are any oath ceremonies in December? Also how long does it typically take to move from the test to the final stage (if one is not asked for extra documentation? Does anyone know?

Yeah! Montreal is well equipped with five appointed citizenship judges:
1. Giroux, Renée
2. Johnson, Veronica
3. Osmane, Farid
4. Paine, Andrea and
5. Senécal-Tremblay, Marie
Ottawa has none.

Usually, next month oath schedule appears on CIC website by the second half of the current month. Please go to: www.cic.gc.ca and search for "find citizenship ceremony".

From the test (passed) to oath ceremony in Ottawa, please count two to six months even though during the interview, the officer tells you that you are going to be invited in one to three months. However, you may be lucky to do your oath ceremony the same day.

Good luck on your exam!

It is not related to the Judges anymore, it is the new process where the Citizenship officer makes the decision for straightforward cases.
This started in Toronto, now spread recently to Montreal and should become the norm everywhere else

Your statement maybe true, but how Ottawa could follow that model originated from Toronto without citizenship judge to preside the oath ceremony?
