    Congratulations Andrew. My status has changed to "decision made" this morning. I guess we are the last in this batch (for obvious reasons).

    I have been Trumped

    This is starting to become really ridiculous. As I mentioned earlier, my case is ideal. Both my wife and I spent every single day in Canada either studying or working, and we provided adequate evidence for this. We also provided complete school records for our 3 children showing day-by-day...

    Am I not allowed to go outside Canada while I had a Citizenship application

    You are allowed if you are travelling for a limited period of time, e.g. a vacation or visiting your family. However, they expect you to remain a resident of Canada while your application is being processed, meaning that you work, study and/or actually live here. Just give them a call to let...

    Anybody Received RQ and got Oath?

    From my personal experience, the biggest factor that determines whether you'll get an RQ or not is your racial/ethnic/national/religious background. It also depends on the CO, whether he/she is a Trumpist or not. Of course there is some effect of your personal circumstances (travel, employment...

    citizenship by convenience

    Not surprisingly, this terms was never used with the previous waves of immigration from Europe, but appeared only with the current immigrant wave, many of them are from the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. The reasons are purely ideological: some still believe that Canada is a while...

    Record and shame CIC

    This is what happens when you have no adequate oversight over a government branch. The problem is that immigrants can't vote and most of them are venerable so they are treated like rubbish.

    hardness and cruelty of some CIC offciers

    From your name, I may guess where are your from and I can understand why is this happening to you. Unfortunately, there are more Trumpists in the system than you think. Good luck.

    Fundamental Reason for Processing Delays is the 80% - 20% Standard of CIC

    It's not a lottery. It follows the CO political agenda. Some want to accomplish with their executive powers what they couldn't achieve in the elections. There are more Trumpists among us that you think.

    March 2015 Citizenship Applicants

    Everytime I send something to the CIC London office, just a few blocks away, through Canada Post, it has to go to Mississauga first and then come back to London, taking 4 days in average. It sucks. Anyway, your situation is still better than mine. The CIC wasted more than 9 months for me just...

    Travelling outside of Canada immediately after the citizenship ceremony

    The short answer is NO. Never leave Canada without a Canadian passport, a PR card or a visa. It will be very difficult to enter it again. Anything else can wait.

    March 2015 Citizenship Applicants

    Thanks for the encouragement friends. I felt quite disappointed at the beginning, but I'm now more determined to complete this journey and, soon or later, obtain what is my right: the Canadian citizenship. Those who try to reverse the course of history are destined to fail (as the failed in the...

    Today I found a thick envelope in my mailbox from the CIC local office. It contains both a CIT 0520 AND a residence questionnaire. This is sooo sick.

    My emotions

    It's a systemic problem. There is no oversight whatsoever on the actions of CIC officers. If your officer doesn't like you for whatever reason, she/he can block your application for a very long time. It seems that some are trying to use their authorities to pass some agendas that they couldn't...

    March 2015 Citizenship Applicants

    Today I got a call from the local CIC office asking me if I have received a request for additional information on September (alongside the request received by my wife). I didn't get anything then !! The gentleman said he'll send it again to arrive next week. So disappointed that my request has...
