Hi. There seems no time frame for elderly people. I am 74 years old, application received by IRCC on 8th Feb,2019, Showing IP since 16 May 2019. I have asked about status of my application, I was given a routine reply that all security and background checks complete, and you are in queue for interview but no letter received so far. Infact our GTA has much backlog because of flood of applications, whereas my friend in Calgary already become citizen last month though applied in May 2019.Anyone has the time frame for the elderly applicants please share thanks
Yes you are right due to the flood of applications it will take a lot time, however they should give priority to the elderly applicants as they will not appear for the test and should process the application faster.Hi.

Hi Dear . What you have very correctly said, the same views were submitted by me through email to Hon'ble Prime Minister in 2nd week of July 2019 and same email was forwarded to Ahmed Hussen our IRCC Minister for follow up, but our utter dismay nothing has been done in expediting long pending applications of we seniors and I feel that we are put in the same waiting line if other young applicant. Let us hope fir the best. Thank you very much for yourvconcern and respect fir the Elders. GOD bless you.Yes you are right due to the flood of applications it will take a lot time, however they should give priority to the elderly applicants as they will not appear for the test and should process the application faster.

The processing time for people over 54, who do not require test, is the same as people who require test. Absolutely no difference. What happens is on test/interview day the elderly person will NOT take the test, instead will proceed straight to interview.Yes you are right due to the flood of applications it will take a lot time, however they should give priority to the elderly applicants as they will not appear for the test and should process the application faster.
Nope.. . . however they should give priority to the elderly applicants as they will not appear for the test and should process the application faster.
That is: No priority. Nothing in rules or policies or practices which suggest test exempt adults are processed more quickly or otherwise outside the main stream of routine applications generally.The processing time for people over 54, who do not require test, is the same as people who require test. Absolutely no difference. What happens is on test/interview day the elderly person will NOT take the test, instead will proceed straight to interview.
Over 54 applicants are also exempt from official language ability requirements.Note that the knowledge test is the ONLY thing the over 54 is exempted from, otherwise the over 54 is required to undergo every other process.
