Thanks for the response. I find it interesting since I haven't lived outside of Canada for over a decade and have only traveled occasionally for vacation. I didn't think the country would be an issue in my case being from a South American nation. Is there any way to inquire about the status of those background checks?
Some CIC agents are nice and tell you what's going on, some don't. To be honest there's no way to find out. This whole citizenship process is a wait and watch game.
I passed my test oct 18th, got 18/20 and the agent asked very few questions and didn't even look at my original documents. The interview lasted about 7 minutes and was very easy. She said I was ready to take the oath. I still don't see any decision made posted to ecas
How do people know how busy is the citizenship and immigration centre for Oath ceremony in coming weeks or months? Is there a way to find out the schedule of Citizenship and Immigration offices?
I did mine on Oct 17 and passed. Officer said to wait for the oath letter.
Still i don't have Decision made on my Ecas. Delay doesn't mean there is something wrong.

I was actually considering doing the same, but I was also wondering if it is really worth doing it before they ask for it? will it really make a difference? also all of my Arabic stamps have english in them (half of the stamp is in Arabic and the other is English). I don't see any reason for the translation.
Ah merci.. i thought interview should be in french even u took ur exam in english.. they said its obligatoire in nterview that must be in french cause i knew someone like that.. thanks for the info...
Oh! I looked up in other parts of this forum and found out that lots of people are complaining about the slowness of the Scarborough centre with regards to sending invitations to Oath ceremony. Some people even wrote to their respective MPs, crazy.
