Oh that might be too late you think its enough time for me to get everything?

I don’t, but who knows?If I were you, I’d reschedule my trip - I’d never, ever reschedule my oath. But it’s only my personal opinion, nothing specific to back it up.

Beg for priority to the officer when they confirm your info before the oath. Maybe they have a heart.

Finally got update on Oath ceremony,
It is scheduled Dec 21. Anyone can advise how long it takes for citizenship certificate to come as I have travel plans for Jan 20. Will that be enough time for getting passport n all?

regards

Depending on the office and how far you live, you can get it within 2 - 20 days.
As soon as you have the certificate, you can go to a walk in passport centre (which you will have to check) and get your passport within 2-9 business days.

If you look a few pages back, you’ll find a good number of messages about this. The notice to appear will be sent closer to the oath date. I received mine one week before. Some people got it even closer.

I just received the zoom invite so you will receive yours soon.

Question - do we have to have the record of landing paper for the ceremony? I don't think I have mine but I believe I have a scanned copy on my laptop.

My notice to appear says PR card OR COPR.

They didn't ask me for it. As the earlier poster suggested, you need your COPR OR your PR card. The same info can be seen here, under 'What to Bring' - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...me-canadian-citizen/citizenship-ceremony.html

Assuming you became a resident after 2002. If it was before, than record of landing is required.

Thank you. The letter from IRCC wasn't too clear. I will just have PR card and two IDs ready then. Both my driver's license and health care are expired and am waiting for the new one... I hope that's okay too.

Hello Everyone,
Received my oath ceremony for the 21st Dec. Edmonton office, I have a few questions, if anyone can help that would be great.

1. Time duration of citizenship certificate to come?
2. Can I apply for a Passport without a citizenship certificate?
3. Can I use the urgent passport Pickup option by paying $110 extra?
4. does Edmonton and Calgary Passport office have walkins available ? If I am from Edmonton can I still apply for my passport in the Calgary passport office?
5. Does a Canadian citizenship card come in the mail at the home address?

We talked about #1 a couple of pages behind. It may be helpful to take the time and read it.
#2- I don’t think so. Have you checked the list of documents required to request the passport? This is what is on the government’s page about proof of citizenship accepted documents:

• citizenship certificate
• certificate of naturalization
• certificate of registration of birth abroad
• certificate of retention of Canadian citizenship

no clue about the other ones.
