September 2024 Citizenship Applications

You really can get a passport in 5 days with minimal stress, especially as you have time right now to arrange it so you just walk in and get it.

Just got the email for Oath. It is in-person on the 6th of March. It is mentioned in the email that I can only apply for canadian passport 2 days after oath. Which will be 8th and that is a Saturday. Passport canada is closed on Saturday. How do you think I can make this work? Thank you.

If this helps, I went in person to my local Service Canada. I did regular processing no rush, Jan 2nd (Thursday )and got it Jan 9th ( Thursday )

I am fine with rescheduling (even if its 6 months) as long as they do not ask me to start all over again. I am traveling to Europe for couple of weeks and have booked everything. Flights, hotels, planned vacation in office (me and wife both). It would be impossible to move this trip without incurring heavy losses. I am ok with a 6 month delay to citizenship.

My timeline is very short. Since passport canada is closed on weekends, I need to apply on a Monday and get it on Tuesday morning. Seems unlikely

Hi All,
I did my citizenship test and my tracker was updated on Dec 24 as completed; Since, then, I didn't hear anything. Is it normal?

Honestly though if it's less stress just email them asap and ask to reschedule

What was your reason for reschedule as they accepted it? Generally they very stubborn about it.
