That is fine. They only take random pictures of you during the test. It's not a video or audio recording
September 2022 - Citizenship Applicants
- Thread starter linxord
- Start date
Hi, congrats on completing the whole process. I have my oath in progress already, but how long does it take to receive the email with the invitation details? Am scheduled to attend on april 17 as per the tracker.
Thank you. Wait a couple of days for the email just in case, if you don't receive it by next Monday I suggest you call them. I saw on another forum two applicants who were scheduled for the oath ceremony on the same day as me, however they never received an email with the information for the virtual ceremony and they were rescheduled for another date for the oath when they contacted IRCC. Keep a lookout on your junk mail just in case. Best of luck.
Average wait time from test to oath is 2-4 months. But I have seen some getting their LPP getting completed in a month after test marked complete. So purely luck based my friend.
Has your Citizenship Ceremony marked as completed in the tracker or ECAS yet? Mine is still showing 'In Progress' in tracker; and Decision Made in ECAS.
Hi @Sandy.gal and my other SCR friends,
How are you? Any updates? I am on an FB group about citizenship. Someone with Online Application of October 2022 got their Oath Invite.
I am jealous. :-(

I noticed that Online applications moving faster in SCR office.
I hope we hear good news in the coming days
Ecas shows Completed and when you click to see the details it updated with the following message:
5. You became a Canadian citizen on March 22, 2023.
Tracker was updated on the March 25th with:
Your citizenship application status: Closed
Reason: We have approved your application to become a Canadian citizen.
Congratulations!
Did you send the oath affirmation form? Perhaps they are updating the files as they start receiving this form or whenever they send the certificates.
Yes I sent the oath form on the same day we took the oath (March 22). I feel like they missed my email.
I was worried with sending the oath affirmation form as I had two different emails on the pdf information, I sent it the next day to the one that it stated on the last piece of paper which you are supposed to sign, I am hoping this was the correct email and not the other one. Don't stress and relax, give them some time, we were more than 200 applicants doing the oath that day, they are most likely taking their sweet time, as always.

My tracker has now gone into the permanent 'Loading' error. Since I have the oath email already, I'm not concerned but it appears this happens more commonly. Any update on the status on the file will fix it.
To my more tech savvy friends with curiosities, you can still view your statuses and updates if you go to the console (while on the page). You can see a whole bunch of JSON objects with data about steps etc.
