That is still withing normal processing time for those in non routine pool. Latest we have seen some of August 2023 cleared. Good luck

Not necessarily. Citizenship applications can generally be grouped into two categories: routine and non-routine. If you are lucky enough to fall under the routine category, your application will be finalized within a few months. However, if you are among the less fortunate applicants, like most of us in this thread, processing times vary, but they typically take at least 24-30 months.
Think of it this way: among all non-routine applicants, the majority will be finalized within 24–36 months. There is a smaller subset of non-routine cases that are considered “more complicated,” and those can take much longer than the average. I’ve seen cases still waiting since 2017, but those are rare (likely only a few hundred applicants).
I hope this helps, and good luck with your application. My AOR is November 2023, and I expect my application to be concluded around Spring 2026, but that’s just my own expectation and hope.
