Is your oath ceremony in-person.

For travelling I believe you will need an actual Canadian passport to come back with no issue unless you have another passport you are using. You are also not able to secure a travel document within 2 days after your oath. Let's see what others have in mind.

Thank you ,I have another passport and when I called they said I cannot enter with another passport into Canada as at the moment of the ceremony I will be a Canadian. So as per law I need to enter with a Canadian passport… anyways I emailed them letting them know my travel and what options do I have , I will update when I have the answer , thnks

Sorry I meant to ask you if your oath ceremony is in-person?

Same here, it’s a bit frustrating seeing everyone getting their LPP completed. We can’t do anything but just wait.

You're not alone - My test was completed on Dec. 29th on tracker and no update since then. LPP still in progress.

Just called IRCC and spoke to a nice agent. She told me the office has received my passport copies and application is in progress.

Its a waiting game now

I applied in October, got AOR in Nov 3rd week and nothing has moved after that. Not even the test invite. Is there any one like me in the universe? And people are telling me you can't do anything, just wait.

I would call to know my office, if it's still Sidney and your local office is not Sidney, will send Web from to ask them to send my file to my local office.

Hi,
