Hi,

I'm planning to submit my citizenship application soon. Considering anecdotes from friends and connections, it appears that many individuals wait for extended periods before receiving their Oath invitation emails. Consequently so I felt confident in planning my travels to visit my parents in July. I 've just discovered 2023 & 2024 excel trackers and I noticed that a good number of applicants received their Oath ceremony email about 3 months after submission.

I'm worried now about getting an Oath email while I'm abroad. Should I delay my application? Are those people in the tracker a lucky minority?


The best cases are 3 months, usual is 5 months these days. But then again you need atleast 1 month for Passport. That is total of 6 to 7 months from AOR in normal cases.

There is an Application number, is that the same as File number?

the first line of the document is “This is to acknowledge receipt of your application for Canadian Citizenship. We will review your application and supporting documents and will contact you if additional information is required.”
 
Hey guys, I submitted on the last day of March so I thought it would be better to chime into this April group as that would be more relevant.
