Congratulations to all who received their oath invitations. Be aware that the small number inside the ceremony address box (# 0XX) will be your seat number in the ceremony.

It seems that the finalized cases are approved in a single batch once per month (Maybe due to the absence of a permanent CJ).

Rosa, i am not informed/qualified to definitively answer your question, but I dont see any reason why those two facts would delay the process. May be other forum members have experience on this.

 

[Rosalia]

thanks oathtaker..i think that its not a factor for delay as u said..hopefully all will be fine..plus your application was submitted 2 months before me..so i think priority goes to early applications first..
