March 2021 - Citizenship applications

[softwaretesting]

Thank you! I live in Oakville. Hamilton is the processing office

Ok, I am assuming it will be faster than Scarborough & Mississauga offices. Also, I am assuming queue will be shorter at Hamilton Mountain passport office.

Do you need visa as well for your destination?

Pretty much the same situation.

Oath on18th May. Travelling June end.

Need to know what the process & timeline is between Oath Ceremony & Passport.

If you are going to India plan 7-10 days for Visa as well.

I have my oath on April 10th via Zoom. Kinda sad but it is what it is.

Any tips on this zoom meeting? I am not zoom savvy at all.

Just finished the PI interview today. All good.

Hi,

I have an interview coming up on the 18th of May, but the email I received didn't describe it as a "PI" interview. Do you have any idea why they interviewed you? Was it tough?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I guess if you are requested to attend an interview by webcam, it's essentially the same.
Mine was not tough at all. The lady was very nice. Just asked me to show passport / PR card.
She asked if I'm in Canada now and I said no, and she said I had to be back to Canada for upcoming Oath.
Took around 10 min.

Hi, can someone help update the tracker?

In new tracker: In progress
Language skills completed: May 5th 2022
Physical presence completed: May 5th 2022
Prohibitions completed: May 5th 2022

In old tracker: Decision Made
It appears "Decision Made" when I check on May 6th 2022. Not sure when it was updated.

It was very quick update as I just did PI Interview on the same day. I guess right after the interview the officer did some updates in system.

Did you receive an email for interview with interview date? You should have received it when you are requested for PP copies. At least that's my case.
