Hi and congratulations! I am also scheduled for oath from Montreal. Mine is the 26th. I was wondering if you have received any email after the tracker updated. I have not received email, and see that most people from other offices get ceremony invitation even before their tracker is updated. I wonder if it is just Montreal office.

Waiting for Oath Ceremony Invitation email. Here is my timeline. Good luck evryone:

anyone who has LPP completed since December but no oath scheduled yet from Mississauga office?

 

[casualgamer15]

Hey everyone, I have a curious question - does the processing office pick-up files/ work on files based on application date or is it based on AOR dates? For example - when people on the forum say that processing office is working on July/ August/ Sep applications, is it the application dates or the AOR dates being talked about? anyone wanna shed some light on this.

based on the dates you find everywhere, looks like they have a random number generator that they use to pick a file.

Hi, I too have in-person oath, did you digitally sign and took the consent form or sign by hand and took it. And for the passport where did you submit and how long was the queue?

 

[SithLord]

LPP in progress ever since November 29th. Not really in the same situation as yours I suppose as they did not request passport page copies, but I did include the passport pages preemptively in my application as I went in and out of the country a couple of times in the past. My application is likely taking longer because some of the presence is under a temporary visa, and some of the time was implied status.

Hopefully, we will get LPP done very soon!

Good luck to you my friend.

sucks to see our applications not moving anywhere. Hope to see some updates soon
