    I guess we are both in the same situation. From Montreal. My prohibitions pending, wife stuck in background and prohibitions (she got fp request in june). Last update in july. Important events for me as well in 26. We probably have the same officer processing our files!

    Is it ok to leave Canada after citizenship application but before AOR?

    Yes she can leave and yes she can take the test outside Canada, but she has to inform IRCC (this will be indicated in the test invitation letter). Keep in mind she may still be asked for interview or provide fingerprints at some point, which require her to be physicaly present in Canada.

    Hey. I may not be the best person to reply to this post as I am in the same situation but I’m only there because (if you’ve seen my earlier post) I have two life events in 2026 that highly depend on me obtaining a citizenship. Otherwise I would probably not think about it much and simply let it...

    Yes same here. But is yours a family application or single?

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    But that’s exactly the sad part - the 13 months processing time is only going up. IRCC says its applicable to existing and new applications which I personally think does not make sense (back in March 2025, processing time was 9 months). I also understand the importance of security screening but...

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    It’s been almost 8 months since I applied, with the last 4 bringing no updates whatsoever. I’m starting to accept that this is going to be a long process. I have two major life events in 2026 that depend on me obtaining citizenship, but I’m trying to come to terms with the possibility that there...

    Not sure about that. Someone just reported on another thread his/her tracker was updated today for an oath invite that was sent on on nov 12

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    two thoughts/questions for this morning: The tracker has been down for about four days now (yes, I know there’s a workaround). How do you feel about this? It’s a government platform, and being offline because someone forgot to renew a certificate seems to say a lot about how things aren’t...

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    To be fair, they processed 3,100 who were already ahead of you but they did also process people who applied after you. What really matters is that they aren't processing people as fast as the new applications are coming in, which is leading to an increase in the overall number of outstanding...

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    IRCC released the latest stats as of November 6. While the processing time remains at 13 months, one clear trend is that the number of pending applications continues to rise, now at 290K compared to 283K last month. For March applicants, the backlog dropped from 89,000 to 78,000. These figures...

    March 1 applied and no AOR yet? have you called IRCC as this is slightly unusual.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    If you think positively, you got 2 additional ticks on your application and you are getting closer. But background is possibly more complex and depends on your situation. You could get it in days, weeks or month. I got my background done in less than 2 months after AOR whereas my wife is still...

    You are likely in security screening. GCMS notes might give you an indication on where your applicaiton is. If it make you feel better, a lot of people from 2024 and 2023 are still waiting for their background to clear as well.
