Hi,

I have applied for Citizenship recently and i am working and living in Canada, I am planning to move to US because of my new job after one year from now (end of next year).

Will there be any problems in the processing of the application if i move to the US by the end of next year and come back for the oath and ceremony ?

I understand that the whole process of citizenship and passport will not be complete by the time i have to move.

Other related question is how much time does it take for the Canadian passport for new citizens ??

Thanks in advance.

Regards

If there are no complications in your application for the Citizenship, you should have all of the process completed by the end of next year. Some have got it sooner, in about eight months. Please read through the thread with the process times in CD.

If you know and understand the process and the times, then you are correct. Now the question. have you followed the thread here, if not, think again, go and see the thread here on CD and then provide your opinion here and if there are other websites that have posted timings, then provide here a link to it. We will also confirm it for you.

For your Passport, the normal times after the receipt of the Citizen ship Certificate, is about three weeks.

I think you should jot down all of the details, of the timings.
The date of application.
The date of acknowledgment of receipt.
The date of receipt of the citizenship book and the test.
The date of the Oath taking ceremony.
You should receive the Citizenship Certificate at that ceremony.
Date you get your Passport application in.
The date of receipt of the Passport.
Check these on the Canadian Desi Website. Also note the people who had to go for an interview and why? The time delay due to that, etc.,

If there are no complications with the papers submitted, then how long did it take? My understanding is it under twelve months.

But you do your own research and you have twelve months to read all of the posts in the CD and other websites.

Good Luck.

Freddie.
