Congratulations!

I got a call from an unknown number on 17 Feb (I am so bad at picking calls and it was a lucky moment that I had phone infront of my eyes).

Re your comment about email address, they just wanted to confirm if the email address is correct.

Keep us posted and good luck.
It’s interesting that many got phone calls for interviews, in my case I only got an email (at like 6:30PM) and that was it.

Still no update. My ECAS status is still "Decision Made". I am waiting for this to be "Completed".
It should change to complete next day after your oath on April 1. Given the holidays, you might just receive ya certificate even before the completion. Goodluck!

Update : Got the certificate today after the oath on 30th . Long journey finally ended. Good luck all.. :)
Hi,
I was wondering if you know exactly how to apply for the passport after receiving the certificate? I’m already aware of the application that needs to be completed and the documents as well, but not sure if the submission could be in person or not. Thank you

Answer this questionnaire:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-passports/new-adult-passport/apply-how.html

Long story short, if you don’t have any urgent travel, you apply by mail.

Done with the interview. The case officer was very nice, everything simple and fast. Now I’m waiting for IRCC to receive the FP.

Great update!!!

Congratulations!!!!! You are almost there. Did office gave indication of Oath invite after the DM?

Re Fingerprints, perhaps you can follow up with IRCC Vancouver (I believe all FP goes to Vancouver).

Good luck!

She said to wait 2-3 weeks for them to receive the FP. I’ll try not to be too anxious.

Great. Officer is about right.

I was reading *RCMP fingerprints timeline* thread and noticed that someone who did FP on 16 March, had his/her results mailed by RCMP to Vancouver on 30 March.

So you can follow up with RCMP middle of the coming week and most likely they would have mailed out by then. Then add another 8 to 10 working days for Vancouver to confirm receipt of FP.

Take a chill and Good luck !

Update on this. I just checked my ECAS status this morning and it is now " Complete" and last update "6. You became a Canadian citizen on April 1, 2021."

Now I am waiting for citizenship certificate by mail.
