    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...

    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 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.

    I think he is curious to know if you are from Montreal. There are a bunch of us who applied from Montreal here and seem to be stuck either in prohibitions, background, or both together. I also see Vancouver folks are getting delays as well.

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    As strange as it sounds, I read on a fb page that someone sent a webform to IRCC just to request changing their preference from a virtual to an in-person ceremony, before even being scheduled for the oath. It seemd to be a pretty casual request (not sure if its even legit because I dont think...

    From the tracker: If you see on the Citizenship Tracker that you’ve been asked to take a citizenship test or participate in an interview, hearing or ceremony, but you haven’t received an official invitation from us yet, we might still be planning your event. Your invitation is the official...

    March 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    What are the chances that our applications are already complete and just waiting for someone to hit “submit”? I’ve seen several posts on forums — and even heard from a friend — that sometimes files fall through the cracks and only need a small nudge to move forward.

    1. Yes your oath could be scheduled during the time you are away 2. You have 2 options a) request rescheduling of oath or b) come back, take your oath, apply for passport, get passport and then travel back

    yes there was someone in another thread that got updates after 18 months or so. Background first and then the next day prohibitions cleared. Good luck!

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Ohhhhhhh congratulations!!!! I am so happy for you!!! So this, without a doubt, confirms that you were held up because of the unfortunate screening for your husband. Given i am in the same boat, i know what to expect. But i may well go for a file separation.

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Sorry for the questions, but did you at any time consider seperating the application? If so, was there a guarantee that yours would have moved (considering you have prohibitions left)? In all cases, do update us in the event you have prohibitions cleared soon (I hope so!)

    2023 Citizenship Applications

    Ok, let me make sure I understand correctly because I think I’m in a similar situation. I applied in March 2025 with my wife as a group. In June, my background check was completed, but she was asked to provide fingerprints and likely went through additional security screening. As things stand...

    Congratulations. Were you ina group (family) application? Was your application delayed because of the fact your husband was in background screening for a long time?
