Hi,
I have a question. I will appreciate if any one been in this situation could help answer it.

1. Should I be carrying expired passport for interview?
My expired passport (expired in 2012) is outside of my fours years of eligibility period and was not mentioned in the application because of that.
I just found out that I have misplaced my expired passport and not able to find it. What could be the impact?

The expired passport does not have any entry / exit stamps that were mentioned in residence calculation.

Thanks so much !

Hello! When did you take your exam? If you don’t mind me asking?
Thanks! And congrats!!

July 25. On the day, they asked me for some additional information regarding travel (I travel a lot for work and missed out a few dates by accident). I sent the information to them the same day and then got DM on July 27. Suprised how quickly that went

Had my test yesterday in Mississauga, 20/20. Interviewer said, you can't do better than this and didn't ask anything else just checked my passport and PR card. She said, I should receive oath letter within 1.5 months. Ecas status is "Decision made" today.
So question for Mississauaga applicants, Oath letter comes by email or regular mail?
