You don't need police certificate from USA as you didn't stay there continuously 6 months. Excerpt from application guide for Citizenship application "In the past four (4) years, if you spent 183 days or more in a row (since the age of 18) in a country".
Example 3
In the past 4 years, you took 10 trips to the United States of America (USA). Each trip lasted 3 weeks, for a total of 210 days. You would answer “No” to the question and you would not need to provide a police certificate from the USA because you did not spend 183 days or more in a row in the USA.

Hello, passed my test yesterday (20/20, today status "in process" changed to "decision made". Trying to figure out the approximate date of the oath ceremony
My application is already in process, I was wondering if we would be able to get our citizenship before elections? Like will they speed up the process due to elections?
