Hello everyone . I need some help with information.
My wife and I passed our citizenship test in Saskatoon on August 27th, 2015.
During the interview which started off well we answered all questions until the officer asked my wife (the principal applicant) which company sponsored her since we applied under skilled worker program.. Funny my wife totally forgot the name of the company since it is owned by her dads friend and she only did volunteer work with until she got her first job here. My wife answered that she couldn't remember the name and that the job was no longer available upon her arrival and that such info would be in her files. The officer agreed and said to expect a letter in a maximum of two months.
It's about 9 months now and still 'in process' with no updates . Last update shown is the one inviting us for the citizenship test.
We have called the cic call center several times and told no updates and to call back every 6 month.
We have received no letter requesting additional documents.
Everyone we know who did their test even less than 2 months ago have done their oath.
We filled the web for on the CIC website a month ago or more an got a response on the 11th of April 2016 saying, " thank you for your email. Your application is currently under review. The clearances are pending.there is no time frame as to when the clearance will pass".
I still ask my wife why she was nervous and just couldn't answer the question till today considering we are legal immigrants and got our PR from our home country before moving to Canada but seems more like crying over spilt milk.
Any advise on this or encouragement would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all

Citizenship test was passed in May and interview was also conducted on the same day but since then nothing happened. Called them several times but was told to wait till November 2017 until the processing time of 12 months is overdue.
Now 12 month processing time is overdue and nothing happened, would anyone please advise what action should be taken to expedite the remaining process of citizenship application?
Many thanks in advance.

I applied in October 2017 and got AOR on November 16th. I am interested to know the average processing time for Saskatoon office too.
That’s great. We both have similar timeline. Please update periodically and I will do the same.
you guys know if Regina's applications are also processed in Saskatoon?That’s great. We both have similar timeline. Please update periodically and I will do the same.
yes sure, I checked the pervious timeline, Saskatoon office is not very fast. From AOR to Ip takes about 20 days. Let us just waitThat’s great. We both have similar timeline. Please update periodically and I will do the same.
I may be wrong but I always thought there are 2 offices for case processing in Saskatchewan. Saskatoon and Regina. Correct me if I am wrong please. Thanks
