Hi. I applied as a family. Processing office is at Scarborough. Application filed date is June 24th. Background check completed on July 8th and Test completed Aug 12th. There are no updates after that.
Should I be following up? Or is still within normal wait times?
Edit: There is zero updates on my son's application apart from the "Application Received" update. Should I be concerned?

You cannot follow up. You are within the timelines of 7 months.

Just got a email from Calgary Citizenship office saying that they have received my In-Person ceremony request and will put me in a In-Person Ceremony.
A second email came as a reply to my other webform in which I provided travel tickets for my time I will be out of Canada. They replied and said they will process my ceremony accordingly.
Just wanted to confirm, even the email came from Calgary Citizenship office, I will be scheduled in Vancouver right?

Your file may currently at Calgary office , so they responded. Ideally Vancouver should set up the oath, or maybe Calgary has access to Vancouver slots. One person from Vancouver had a ceremony in Ontario (their old address) and they decided to just travel and attend instead of trying to reschedule. I dont remember exact places but they did travel a long distance. So cant rule out completely that you might be called in Calgary. Its very rare though. Atleast, It is a good thing they have noted your request to schedule it after a certain date.

@hssrp @maverick1982 what is the shortage time period you have seen so far between from oath letter/update on tracker to oath ceremony

Thank you for updating. I am back on Dec 4. I called IRCC on Nov 12 (LPP not started on that day yet) to tell them that I am unavailable for Oath from Nov 16 to Dec 4. After seeing the LPP complete today, I called them again and the agent confirmed that there is a note on my file regarding my unavailability period. I did send them webform with my tickets and availability. I hope I get scheduled after 4th and I don’t get stuck.
And yes, my PO is Vancouver.

What number are you calling them at? Could you please share it?

In my GCMS notes, I see that under clearences it says ‘yes’ for RCMP/CSIS. Is this checked for everyone? Or if this is requested, does my file become non-routine? I have everything marked complete except Prohibitions

If you dont get by tomorrow, you should reach out. Some people do get it two days before. I had received it on a monday , 4 days before the ceremony. The tracker was updated on a thursday(reflected saturday) 8 days before the ceremony. Be sure to check spam folder if you havent.

Do you have to be in Canada for the virtual oath?
