October 2021 - Citizenship Applications

Nope, didn't get it. I think I'll get mine on Monday.

Yup, I m sure it’s just a matter of a day or two for you.

 

[VAIOIVAN]

Yes. It’s probably because I had a request to expedite it because of my work.

I requested it too for work, but called them today saying still not mail yet....

I think you should wait for a day or two. BTW you were in the same oath as us, right? Calgary IRCC at 7:15 AM PST on Mar 1? I think they shipped ours out the same day.

After almost a year of silence, I received an email from this address “IRCC.DNCitHAMScheduling01-ConvocationHAMCitRN.IRCC@cic.gc.ca” asking for passport copies, physical presence, and copies of tickets, boarding passes, etc, of my absences.
Has anyone seen the email address before?

That would be Hamilton IRCC

Hello Everyone,

I applied for my citizenship in November 2021. In December 2022, I received an invitation to the Oath ceremony. However, I was not in CANADA to show up for the oath ceremony, so I sent an email and requested a new date. I anticipated getting new data within a month, but there's no update yet.

Does anyone when I should be receiving a new ceremony date? Thanks

One would think that it's just easy to mail all applications together on a day, but nobody can ever understand IRCC's logic. Did they confirm that your evidence for work was reviewed. I think what helped my case was that I had emailed my expedition request before the ceremony and my supporting document for proof was already in the system. Either way, hopefully they should mail out everything this week.

There is no set timeline for it. Some folks were rescheduled 6 months after. You should follow up with them via email and hope that it helps move your case.

Yes, I've submitted the webform last month. Received their email after 2 days that your application is in progress.

Try calling up and see if there is any action on it. Since its been a month from the webform submission, you can also try responding to the original oath invite email and follow up on your request. Unfortunately there is not a lot to do but wait.

There really is no logic to it. Someone in another thread posted how they had their oath with Calgary on Feb 15 and hadn't received it. I know that they already print out the certificates before the day of the ceremony because my GCMS notes indicated that they shredded mine after Nov 23 (which was my original oath date). So there is no excuse to not send it out the same or next day after they receive the form.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed to see whether I get mine today. If it's not IRCC it's Canada Post screwing with us. It's always some government entity or the other

I got my citizenship certificate today and thus this whole process is completed 494 days since I applied.
