Bro how did you come to know of Feb 23 ?I don't think that is correct brother as they would have to let the concerned persons know at least 4 weeks before right .Anyway today's is Jan 23.so there is'nt enough days for that.

I got approved in Nov 22 and i got to know that there was ceremony in 6 Dec 22, so i emailed the ceremony team and they said i couldnt be added to that date because it was too late and then they told me that there will be another ceremony in Feb 23 with dated TBC. I reckon it will be on 19 Feb or 26 Feb because HCC usually does on Sundays.

Did you get approved by end of November ?wasn't there another 1 month remaining at that time from the time you got approved to the next ceremony date then ?who decides the ceremony -the council or ceremony team ?If you come to know of the ceremony please post here .

I got approved Mid-Nov and i was told to wait until next ceremony. I think they need at least 3-4 weeks prior to sending the certificates to council. Every council conducts citizenship ceremonies on behalf of DIA. Some councils do monthly ceremonies and some do every 2 months(HCC in this case.) i think we will get an email 2 weeks before the ceremony and i will post here if that would help.

hi mate, no i havent hear anything yet. I have asked from the council but no response from them yet. I am still hoping there would be a ceremony in Feb, if not then i guess it would be in March definitely. Usually council put this info on their website but i couldn't find anything. We will get the email from DIA because they will be sending us the invitation for the ceremony not the council.
