August 2014 Citizenship Applications

[jrjayl]

True!

Btw, jrjayl I still head nothing for the oath and the call centre stopped checking the status of applications outside the posted processing times (2 months).. I've had my test March 19th as you already know, should I start to freak out ?

No my friend there is no reason to freak out at this point. I think I'm one of the lucky ones because at the interview the officer said at the end "we will have a final review and if no concerns the oath letter shall arrive in between 2-3 months", and I received it in one month. My guess is that if the officer making the final review has some backlogs or on vacation or sick etc, then it will take a bit more to get you a date for the oath.

The last wait is the most anxious for us all, hang on there! My personal guess is that you should get the letter by end of this month or beginning of June.

Keep us posted!

Is there something like final review too?

During my interview, the officer told me that he is approving my file and said congratulations to me. He said I will receive oath invite in couple of months.

To be honest, I have no idea how CIC works. I'm guessing I have a few stamps that I didn't declare because they are day trips so they might want to check. Again, this is just a guess.
If your case is straightforward, it is just a matter of time.

Give it another few weeks, I believe you'll do your oath soon enough!

I understand. Did the officer tell you about approval or he just said about review?

No the officer who interviewed me did not metion anything like "approved".
I was only told "expect oath in 2-3 months if no concerns come up".

We passed our test yesterday at Scarborough. Both I and my wife got 19/20. At the interview something odd happened though and I wanted to know if this has happened with others. The officer first checked through the identity documents and then each entry/exit stamp on the passport matching it with the residence calculator and the CBSA report. Then she went through the RQ stack and took out the US lease agreements, insurance, employment records and all bank and credit card statements (including Canada). Then she returned those documents to us only retaining the Canadian NOA, English testing proof, etc. We asked for next steps and were told Oath invite in 2-4 months, she was writing ok and approved in multiple places. Has this happened with others - i.e. return of documents?

I am confused and concerened. I ordered ATIP and finally got it, not helpful at all. No information its all just what I sent them. Plus last time I spoke to the CIV agents they said all every thing is ok and my background check was done and all is good just wait for the test invite. I received a letter on my 4 they asked for finger prints which I did on monday. Needles to say I am very confused and concerened.
Does any one understands whats happening
