Thank you for answering those questions! 8)

⦁ Can you send in the application for citizenship to be processed while you continue to earn the residence requirement of 3 years? If you need to wait, and send in the application once the requirement is fulfilled, but your PR card will expire before processing (of the citizenship application)...

Is the processing of PR cards for new permanent residents really taking an average of 94 calendar days?

Sorry, I am not comfortable with providing that. But it's soon! :)

We received our landing date too! ;D

Congrats! So, did you do anything special or just patiently wait all those months?

It's ridiculous they don't inform applicants of any issue(s) that may prevent scheduling a landing appointment. But fortunately, my wife's medicals were successfully extended months ago. Although the Call Centre has been providing us conflicting information and dates; including exactly when they...

So, who internally has the authority to do something about our situation? We've been patiently waiting over 9 months for the Vancouver office to schedule a landing appointment (to obtain my wife's COPR document) and the Call Centre has not been very helpful. We are so confused and frustrated...

Question 2: Is there not any sort of regulation or something to prevent a local office from not ever scheduling a landing appointment?

Anyone else?

Question: Are there many applicants continuing to wait more then 5-6 months for the Vancouver office to schedule a landing appointment? We're quickly approaching 9 months now and the call centre said they can't do anything more then send out referrals every 3 months. This is ridiculous!

For those waiting to be scheduled to land at the Vancouver office; what is the current wait time you are being told? We are now approaching 8 months since Decision Made, and the Call Centre says they can't take action until next month; whatever that means? They already sent a referral to them a...

Can someone who already landed, and preferably, who is sponsoring a spouse; please confirm which of the 3 offices in BC you went to? Thanks! http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/help.asp

We're now approaching 7 long months since DM with no word from the Vancouver office! And the Call Centre is not all that helpful. What more can be done? Is this a reasonable time to wait? Can anyone provide a telephone number for the Vancouver office responsible? Perhaps a re-scheduling # from...

Most applicants have been told 6 months! But we're fast approaching that with no word from the Vancouver office. And somebody else was even told to wait 3 additional months following that wait. :o

I already understood that each local office has a different total of applicants to go through, and that would most likely determine the average wait time. I was actually referring only to those who land at the Vancouver office. If you view the spreadsheet, there are multiple applicants that...

So we're quickly approaching 6 months with no word from the Vancouver office. And now to understand we may be told to wait even longer just seems unreasonable at this point. We applied close to 2 years ago! Can somebody please explain why some inland applicants [waiting to land at the Vancouver...

We received DM towards the end of July. $1040 sounds correct.

So after several calls, we eventually got through to the call centre, and were told it would take 5-6 months for the office in Vancouver to contact us. We also decided to pay the right of permanent residence fee online. But I wanted to ask those of you on these forums if it's understood how they...

Our feelings are definitely mutual; we applied the month before you. So when did you decide to pay the right of permanent residence fee? I am wondering if that may be a factor in when applicants receive an appointment.
