April 2022 - Citizenship Applications

[ada228]

I can't believe that I got
"You've been scheduled to attend your citizenship ceremony on May 21, 2023"
I'm so happy...
btw it is Sunday.

Great news, backlogs are being cleaned now, fingers crossed!!

oh, looks like they are scheduling for only 9 or 10 days after the invite?? I'm currently abroad, so that's scary but I guess it's good news.

My MP replied today:

“The application was received on April 2022 and is being processed at the Mississauga office with an estimate processing time of 21months. The criminality, security, knowledge, and language assessments have passed. The residency assessment has not started and there is nothing outstanding on the file”

Criminality/security I believe they are the BG checks or also the prohibitions? Also he said the residency not started, but they already asked for passport scans. Hopefully someone grab my application and finalize it!!!

yeah got this last month from my MP. Still no movement on file. Wrote test abroad. IRCC 69ing me and the missus.

Guys do you know how can we request the e-certificate? My oath is on May 21, 2023 however my surgery in Switzerland is on May 24, 2023 and I do not know what to do. If it is an e-certificate, I can apply on May 22 for an urgent passport and depart. Because I waited for the surgery for 6 month and to lose that spot would be devastating. Thank you all for the advices

You can talk to the oath officer on the oath date and they might release your certificate on an urgent basis. If they are not able to do it, they might give you an option to reschedule the oath.

Send an email to the oath office with proof of travel and surgery. They’ll likely reschedule you or send your certificate urgently.

another option (if you can stay in Switzerland for 1-2 months) could be leaving Canada without a passport and then applying for a passport at the Embassy... (you would need to find a way to send the certificate to you, like sending it to a paid mailbox in Canada and then forwarding it to Switzerland)

It's been almost 6 months since I passed the citizenship test and my profile was last updated on March 2, 2023. LPP is still in progress, really annoyed by the whole process... anyone still in the same boat?

My AOR: April 6, 2022...
