Hi everyone, how long before your oath ceremony do you receive the Oath invitation? Mine is after 7 days and I haven't received the invitation yet

Tomorrow you should contact IRCC.

Hi everyone, i have a question regarding name update. In my current passport I have my maiden name. However in my citizenship application I requested to update my name to include my husbands last name, what will my citizenship certificate show? My maiden name or the one I request? Also how to get the Canadian passport with my husbands last name?

For anyone waiting on the SCR office, I have a small update. My LPP is finally set to complete on 21st July. Citizenship test was completed on March 29th and there was no update since then. This should give SCR folks some hope.

Oath scheduled for Aug 30th. Haven’t received an email but the tracker was updated. So no idea if it’s virtual or in person. SCR office.

Love to read everyone's LPP complete/Oath scheduled
Atleast can say that 2023 applicants are moving pretty fast. Average is 6-8 months.

Hey everyone, wanna share an observation here: I'm noticing a surge in the number of LPPs getting completed, what's interesting to me is that I checked 4 corresponding timelines and saw exactly 119-120 days between the date citizenship test was taken and the LPP given. I'm wondering if there's a 120 days deadline for officers to get the LPPs reviewed, I know this may sound naive but it may actually be true. I myself am on my 115th day since test and waiting for the LPP .. so let's see

That’s really interesting. I had also noticed that there has been a surge of people getting their LPP/oath completed are people that completed their test back in March. Keep us posted on your results

I support your observation.
I have also observed the same as a general observation that appear true with many applicants' timeline.

Hi all, I applied is Jan 2023, my background was passed in Apr 12th, and my wife's background passed May 11th (after she did FP) . My children (aged 13 & 11) still have their background In Progress. Is that normal? Our LPP is still in progress, but is it normal for the BG for my kids to be In progress?
