Hi All,
My citizenship application decision has been made last week and I am waiting for Oath, but have an health emergency of a family member and need to return to India soon (this weekend). I plan to travel back to Canada when my Oath is scheduled if things stabilize in india but I have to return back. Requesting answers to below questions -
1) if I become a canadian citizen after Oath, then immediately Indian citizenship is stripped or do I have to renunciate myself ? If latter then can I travel to India using Indian passport and then later renunciate ?
2) I know OCI is an option but may take 3-5 months for processing .. is there a way to process this faster (like urgent processing) ?
3) I think the e-visa is not available for Canadians and UK anymore, is there an alternative to this that's simple and fast ?
4) Any other visa type for India that I can apply right now while I travel and Oath is pending so when I complete my Oath I can immediately go back ?
5) Worst case if things dont stabilize and I need to be there for longer, can I request Oath be rescheduled but how much longer can I reschedule it and how many times ?
Thanks in advance
