Send the bio page in high quality.

If you want, you can include all other pages with 96 DPI which is their recommendation, but ensure you submit the bio page in good quality and at the beginning of the file. They could still request all passport pages when they send the test invite as that seems part of their process now.
Thanks a lot! Cheers

My BC was completed on Oct. 18 and today all steps are completed. Only oath is not started. Any idea how long is the oath queue once everything is completed ?

Today the citizenship ceremony changed to in progress with yesterday's date and the ceremony was scheduled for December 23.

I'll have to ask them to reschedule since I won't be in Canada on that date.

Timeline is in the signature.

It depends on the office processing the application. For me it took one day, for others it took longer.

Congratulations @vg1989.

Really, all my Dec applicants are closing on their cases........Oh Lord, what have I done?
I am 1-Jan-2021 applicant. I noticed three folks from first half of January (including me) received the same oath ceremony date i.e. 23-Dec. and all are from GTA. Not sure if it's a coincident or if it was linked to specific office. I don't want to speculate.

I am sure your invitation is around! Don't worry :)

Those should be from Scarborough. You can know your office by checking the email you received with the invite for the test. Scarborough usually has DN SCR at the beginning.

The office processing my application is Scarborough and the citizenship ceremony was also scheduled for the same date.

Montreal office for me.
Congrats friend, when did you receive the test invite? When was it updated to complete all the rest of the fields?
I heard non-routine apps are processed in MTL Cen is this true?

I got test invite from MTL Cen even though my original office is Scarborough. My test updated to complete, b/g completed and everything else is in progress except oath.

Congratulations for the oath ceremony invitation! :)

Yup, I am aware DN SCR thing and unless they moved it lately (highly unlikely), my application was being processed at Scarborough.

By the way, from background completed to all the subsequent statuses, our application progress is very similar including oath ceremony date.

See you at the oath ceremony! :)
