Hello Emperical Scientist,

I believe we are very similar with our timeline to become Canadians. I got my PR also through PNP which was very fast within 6 months. I sent my application for citizenship on July-24-2014.


When do you expect CIC to start working on your application? My local office is Toronto, should we expect different timeline?

Thanks

Now straight to the business, anybody has gotten their application back? Or Ecas updated (unlikely now)?

.

I used Purolotor and was delivered next morning.
Also Purolotor was the cheapest and fast one among those that I called namely Canada post and fedex.
Canada post quoted me 40 plus with two business days delivery, while FedEx said around 30 something with two delivery days.
So I decided to use Purolotor .it was cheap and fast .
They told me we gonna deliver it within the business day time of 9 to 5, but they delivered early morning around 9 something.
So they are good if u wanna consider them.
Wish u good luck for that package to reach safe there and also not be returned to you by CIC.

Hello all. For most applicants' cases and from what I've seen or applicants from previous months, it takes at least a minimum of one and a half months for something to show up on E-cas or to get an acknowledgement receipt.
So if you sent your application during the first week of July then E-case would be updated near the end of the August or beginning of September.

Probably end of September, if all goes smoothly. Not sure if Toronto and Vancouver are under a common denominator in terms of processing times...

it's been 5 weeks for me and no news from them yet, guess at this point no news is good news. At current it takes 50-60 days to see something on ECAS which is 7-8 weeks.
I saw from the June thread that for an application to get kicked back it takes around 6 weeks. Keep my fingers crossed.

They received mine on 2nd May, I got it back on 20th June in my mail box.
