Yes that's right. Calgary

Congrats again! Haven't received my invite yet from the Calgary office, but hope it arrives soon

Do you think I should contact IRCC? I requested GCMC notes and didn't receive anything yet!

Update (single applicant, Montreal office):

Prohibitions, Language skills and Physical Presence changed to Completed on the online tracker yesterday. So all fields showing completed now except for citizenship ceremony. Ecas also showing DM.

Did they ask you to submit passport copies and when?

Oddly enough I was never asked for passport copies even though I made 3 two-week trips abroad during my eligibility period.

Montreal. I have to say I did apply for gcms notes twice in the last 4 months and didn't see anything of interest, unusual or non-routine in them.

Quick question - How many days prior to the oath ceremony did you get the invitation email? My ceremony is on de 29 but I have not received oath ceremony invitation email. Thanks in advance for your responses.

Hey guys - quick question
We applied for Citizenship grant in November and our Background check was completed in March, dead ever since , meanwhile just last we got our Ukrainian passports replaced because we had really old passports and can’t really travel with them .
do we need to contact IRCC and give them new information about our new passports ? They have new serial numbers and expiration dates .

thanks

I think may be we can delay few weeks if DM has been done already, but in your case as you didnt even take the test, i would certainly update my new PP details.

My colleague who got scheduled for oath had 40+ overseas trips in the past 3 years and did not get PP request, it all depends on the officer reviewing your file.

Hey I have got exactly the same status change as you.. Anyone has any idea when we can expect to have the oath ceremony? Thanks so much guys to keep my morale up.

i think this is the frustrating experience....lack of consistency.......

Any other Calgary applicants out there who got their test invites? Seems like at least two Nov. 2020 applicants finally got theirs. Looks like my application didn't make the cut though..

In Process: April 20, 2021

My Background verification status has been updated to Completed on December 2nd. Also, I moved to Quebec recently and my processing office now is Montreal.

Not trying to be pessimistic but a lot of people from Montreal had a 4-6 month wait post-DM before getting oath invite.

Thank you! Actually, I am thinking the same. I barely heard anyone is getting an oath date shortly after the DM in Quebec. Even though some of my friends in Ontario got the oath date within 2 weeks of DM. But better to realistic than super optimistic.
