September 2025 - Citizenship Applications
- Thread starter MexiCan1309
- Start date
Before mine, I submitted 2 applications for my friends. One took 4 months, the other took 5 months because he missed the exam and we had to ask for a new exam. Overall, if nothing comes up in your background check or prohibition, expect average of 6 months. That IRCC processing time is not to be trusted.
Hello. I have submitted my application on 05 September, 2025. Waiting for AOR. Can you pleae grant me access for edit in file tracker please.
Dear Experts
1. I need some help in the language requirements for citizenship. I have an IELTS report of 2013 and the same was not part of my PR application. For PR application, I submitted the different one in 2014. Can I submit my 2013 ielts report as a language proof ? If yes then can the citizenship officer put a question mark on my citizenship application processing that why i have not disclosed this ielts in my PR application ?
2. I have my black and white scanned copy of my post graduation degree. I submitted this during the PR application. Can I submit the same as a language requirements? My original documents are back home.
Please reply

Did you complete your degree in English? If so, you likely don’t need to provide additional proof of language proficiency. I also submitted a scanned copy of my transcript and diploma, but it was a color scan—I'm not sure if that will be an issue.

To answer your first question, I think it’s best to use the language exam you submitted for your PR application. You can find more details here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...itizen/eligibility/language-proof/step-2.html
