March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

[armoured]

I just heard a theory from a friend who recently received their oath ceremony. According to them, applicants who originally obtained permanent residence after entering Canada on a TRV through inland spousal sponsorship tend to experience much longer delays compared to those who landed as permanent residents directly or entered on a work visa. Does this make sense?

It's hard to rule anything out - but there's no logical reason to think so.

And unless this theory is backed by some serious data (which, let's face it, it's not), this is "I noticed it rains when I wear my fancy socks so obviously those socks cause the rain" level of 'analysis.'

Or to be absolutely clear: I don't think it makes any sense. If you want to believe someone who thinks it does, that's your prerogative.

No update on my wife's file since June 11,2025.... waiting on LPP. I will just keep on applying for GCMS notes every 2 weeks...

Was your wife’s application initially returned because they couldn’t verify pre-PR days?

Maybe we are in the same group of files sent for BG, my last gcms notes showed Gant review ready PM03, and an officer was assigned with due date 2025/12/03. But No updates at all...

GU on Jan 13, it means that someone did some updates on your file, or at least opened your file. Which is a good news, good luck!

I just called the IRCC and was informed that the LPP process has not yet commenced. Although I wasn’t expecting any further updates from the call center, I find it astonishing that after 10 months, the LPP process has not yet been initiated.

I have seen multiple cases on FB that agent over phone told them LPP hasn't started and they end up getting it within few weeks. over phone agents can be misleading! your officer starts the process simultaneously once they receive your application. Don't lose hope!

-The "started/not-started" info seems to mean approximately nothing.
-What do you mean, after a decade? You applied for citizenship ten years ago?
