    2023 Citizenship Applications

    I agree. There are no doubt a few people here went with the mandamus route and their applications got approved within months of that. Yet, who's to say if their application was already nearing completion and mandamus was more of a coincidence than a cause?

    Withdraw and reapply?

    Honestly you barely crossed the 8 month mark and you are already thinking about withdrawing and reapplying, look at us from 2023 AOR. In all seriousness, unless you know what caused your file to get stuck, even if you reapply you may end up at the exact same spot.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    There used to be this list on IRCC's website that outlines what would trigger the non-routine label, stuff like requested for fingerprints, missing an interview, failing citizenship tests twice...etc However, sometime in 2024 IRCC quietly deleted that page. My assumption is too many people like...

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    I just saw it in the GCMS notes late last year. And yes, I've heard an agent telling me it's under investigation. Yet, what investigation? No one knows. I'd rather not disclose too much in detail, but I can tell you it has nothing to do with refugee or anything in my background that could...

    It says on hold, but when I tried to ask why, no one could tell me.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    I tried MP...both before and after the election, but both MP offices couldn't do anything once IRCC said this is non-routine. IMO I call that non-routine a bs, it's just a get out of jail free card for IRCC to not do anything. And for mandamus, like armoured said, it's a little by chance. I've...

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Thanks for telling us about your case. It also made me glad that the lawyer I talked to was very honest with me and told me to just save my money. I ditto to the hate against this process. It just makes no sense.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    All that was reported on were just internal issues, there's nothing about how they respond to the applicants and other 3rd parties.

    I think the minister couldn't care less unless there's media and public scrutiny on this issue.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    I actually talked to a lawyer and she was being very honest with me that I can spend easily over 15k with her, but it may still be in this grind because the mandamus cases are backed up with the court and very few of them are moving. I thanked her for that and saving me money, but this is the...

    Honestly, I am kind of in the mindset up of not caring anymore, it's just so stupid.

    January 2023 - Citizenship Applications

    Welcome to the chaos. You mentioned you applied in January, is that January 2023 or January 2025? As for traveling, you are free to travel during this process, there is nothing stopping you. The only possible issue is if a certain procedure or step requiring you in-person such as interviews...
