Still nothing new here. I will probably give them a call towards the end of the week but I think the officers take at least 3 months before they can look at a file.

Of course they would be getting a high volume of calls as they are not efficient and not doing their job very well. People are frustrated with them so people are calling in the hundreds and thousands to demand answers.

Hi Janoo I am here to support all of you who are waiting also my husband, I had my citizenship ceremony last year in May. my husband's time line is my husbands outline.....

1. Received our application for Canadian citizenship October 12, 2011/ sent us the book


2. Started processing the application on March 27, 2012.

3. Fingerprint letter on July 23, 2012.

4. May 29, 2013 citizen test passed 16/20 + RQ after the interview at Scarborough office

5. RQ sent by hand to Scarborough office July 18, 2013

6. File sent to St. Clair July 22nd, 2013

7. We sent you a letter on October 1, 2014. This letter i believe was just to buy them time it had no usefulness information, they just explained that the 36 month waiting was just as approximate waiting time

8. They requested 2nd fingerprint November 13, 2014

9. They sent us 2nd mini RQ November 10, 2014 they just requested colored copy of the passport and any travel documents .

10. They sent us final notice for fingerprint December 29, 2014 we had to reply with a copy of receipt for the fingerprint taken. Plus we had to contact RCMP to ask for reason of delay.

11. January 28,2015 we called CIC at last they said everything is ok and the file was transferred back to Scarborough since the 20th of January and waiting for oath schedule.

we did apply for ATIP before we left for our vacation and we got a reply nothing changed.
we did fill the form for inquiry we received the same information nothing changed but they stated they will forward our concern to the local office.

we are still waiting

You have been waiting since January 2014 for your test? this is incomprehensible to be waiting for almost 15 months just to take the test, I am speechless. Unfortunately they will not be able to do much unless you reach the 36 months in processing.
I think you should call them every single day and demand an answer and maybe that will prompt them to take so action.

Hi,

Just wondering, how come you received the citizenship and your husband is being delayed? I'm only asking because I am in the same circumstances with my wife...
