Hello,

I am creating this thread specifically for those who are in Vancouver and submitted their citizenship exam in Sep 2009 and waiting for their Oath letters/dates. For me I submit my exam on Sep 22nd, got an RQ, submitted all required documents with enough proof on Sep 25th and hoping to get my oath with no delays.

Hope everyone will share his status,

Good Luck for everybody,

Regards,

Hi, hope you don't mind me asking but I was wondering how long the process has taken you so far. I only landed this year, so I'll need to wait a good while longer before applying for citizenship, but I am wondering how long of a process I have to 'look forward to'.

Hey Guys,

Answering how long, I submitted my citizenship application on December 24th 2008 and was received by CIC on December 29th. As for the RQ reason I have posted this before in the old version of RQ. It was because I had multiple short trips to submit my CCIE exam, twice to Dubai and twice to brussels, which made the officer doubts my physical presence in Canada. I did submit all the proofs and hope the documents satisfy her. I am not lying and have faith that with rules and laws my application shouldn't be delayed.

Regards,

Not for me, looks like Vancouver Santa has forgotten about us this year. :-) There are many ceremonies in December though...
