Inquiry

[MJCN95]

Does anyone can give something to know about mp role for inquiring citizenship application, while my application and In progress since January 6 month now. And I have not recieved any update since then from IRCC how does a Mp can help about my case on file. I have submitted a web form. Testifying my records that they might have. Does can affect my citizenship application even background verification now is completed. Does it appropriate to inform IRCC what ever the case issues I had in the past. After completing background Verification. Also my waiver does MP can address the issue and getting a timeline when Waiver should be done and chances for approval. Could you please tell. Thanks

Not sure why you think MP would be helpful. They will just be told your application is being processed. Unless you are experiencing abnormal processing times the MP will essentially receive the same information you receive via your webform. You are likely just in a queue with others applying. Would monitor others processing times and that will give you the best information versus contacting your MP.

Generally the role of the MP here is to make sure that gov't agencies, IRCC included, are following the law and doing their job. It's mostly helpful if you've gone beyond the standard processing times but there's not a good reason for it (e.g. delays due to a complex background check would count as a good reason).

There usually isn't much point in trying to ask an MP for help early (while still under the standard processing times), the only benefit I would see (aside from a chance to get acquainted with your MP) is that you might be able to preemptively avoid getting assigned to a ghost officer and then forgotten about as per https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/otta...iner-placeholder-code-inactive-list-1.6669571 (but supposedly this isn't supposed to happen anymore anyways as per https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/otta...ctive-officers-ids-after-cbc-report-1.7314310 )
