Congratulations! I think Scarborough is a little late in sending emails from the ecas update.
my ECAS showed that they sent me request to appear for Citizenship exam on Jan 12th but I have only received the email on Jan 16th. so I figured there is a delay in between.
 
do you guys know by when should we start expecting November applicants to get invites?

I think the % of Oath invites received for October applicants is a good indicator on what to expect for November applicants, right now its sitting at 45%...probably when it goes up to about 65-70% or so, you'll then start seeing some invites coming out for November too, maybe towards mid august timeframe.

Yay my wait is finally over.
Got the invite for July 17, 830 am
Good luck everyone else :)
If i have booked my holiday can I put it under URGENT passport processing ?
When do you need to travel? CIC usually says to wait 2-3 day before applying. You can bring your tickets/booking and ask for urgent processing, you just have to pay extra. They might even have the passport ready for pick up the next business day or in 2 days. Just make sure your guarantor and reference people are aware someone could contact them and that they will answer the phone.
 
I just got a phone call as well as e mail stating that Oath ceremony on Canada day has shifted from Amesbury Park,1565 Lawrence Avenue West, North York, Ontario, M6L 1A8 to Speducci Restaurant,46 Milford Avenue,Toronto ON, M6M 2V8 at 9-30am on 2018/07/01 (yyyy/mm/dd).

Any one from this forum got such notice or phone call?
