Look at the Oct Spreadsheet and you will understand why.
If you are talking about the huge number of applicants in October after changing the rule, I totally understand that. At the same time, if you take a look at Calgary office number in the same spreadsheet you will see that they used to do a great job till the new year thats why everybody here used to call Calgary office is the fastest one in all over Canada. However, you will see a significant drop in their business since January, no body knows why! .

Mine IP since Jan 03.
About your friend from Red Deer I think because he/she lives a bit far away from the office, that what I was told here in forum from someone who had same situation.

Calgary office is now slowing down, I have plans of going outside Canada in April or June. I hope this waiting game will be over soon.

Everybody does have a plan after the citizenship .. work, travel, etc. But unfortunately we can't do anything to accelerate the processing especially we are almost there. Good luck to all of us

Hi, fellow Calgarians,

Calgary office looks still pretty fast for October applicants. A lot got their Oath invites which is great to see!

Those who have recently completed their test/interviews at Harry Hays building, if you could please share your experiences, that would be great. Thanks.
