AOR: Nov 21, 2023
Background Completed: Dec 1, 2023

Update:

Question: The notice to appear has the time of 12:30 pm with one guest allowed, but on the website says it's at 1:30 and open to the public. Can I have more than one guest who shows up as a member of the public? Does anyone have any experience with the Mississauga oath ceremony, the procedure and how long the event is expected to take?

Guys, need help to understand my GCMS notes. My application isn't moving after AOR at all.

Primary office : CPC-Sydney
Secondary office: Vancouver-Citizenship

App status : Open
App status reason: inventory-CP

Paper file :
Office: CPC-Sydney
Location: Registry

Application Assignment:
<<Everything is blank here>>

Rest everything is in "Not started" status.

Has anyone else seen such status before? What is the meaning of Location: registry and status reason: inventory-CP ? Also it means my application will be processed at Vancouver office. Right?

I was called for in person. Also selected e-certificate. When I applied there was no option to select whether you like virtual or in person ceremony

Thank you for your response. Did you receive the citizenship certificate at the end of the ceremony? Would you be able to apply for passport on the same day?

Congrats on your citizenship. Can you tell us what was the questions asked ? Did both you and your wife had the interview together or separate timeslots.

Hi, the questions were simple like what is your address, where do you guys work, they saw our PR cards. That's all. We had same time slots. Then the visa offer told us that she is approving our citizenship application and if we would like to take oath today itself and we said yes.
