December 2014 citizenship applicants!
- Thread starter beauhoe
- Start date
Now it's 3 of 5 but you say that you're applying on February so what matters is the law on February not now and on February 95% that the requirement will be 4 of 6 (and I read that maybe you would need to have paid taxes every year, I'm not sure about this point and also to have lived in Canada at least 6 months every year).Aulakh7 said:

Currently the rule is that you have to stay 3 out of 4 years to be eligible for citizenship.Aulakh7 said:
By next feb if you complete 1095 days then you won't be eligible for citizenship because this june (most probably) the new law will come into effect and you have to reside 4 years out of 6 years (also 183 days per calendar year)

OK guys let's make it 5 months (150 days) instead of 4 then.
5 months of inactivity ===> Deleted in the spreadsheet.
1) By inactivity we mean someone who has not updated his/her line on the spreadsheet OR let us know here on the forum about his/her wait at least once in a period of 5 months.
2) This "measure" will not affect the average member of the forum. It will affect people who obviously have forgotten about this group altogether or who deliberately do not want to share their information with us anymore.
3) For what it is worth, someone was telling us here last week that a CIC agent specifically told them that ALL December applicants have been acknowledged (AOR). The fact that we still have people "without" AOR in our spreadsheet at this time (or after 150 days) is only due to the fact that those members are part of the group described in 2) above...
Let's keep a reliable spreadsheet for us and for future applicants.
Thanks to (reliable) spreadsheets we now know that the waiting time upper bound to go from one step to the next is 4 months for routine applicants. That makes our wait less stressful. For example in my case I know that I will see In Process on my eCAS by July 3rd (4 months after Received appeared), the very latest. Although it would be nice to see it sooner

Just called them to double check my application just in case they sent me something and I wasn't aware of it. (And I just moved to my new place) Turns out everything is good with my application but it has not been transferred yet. They have no idea when it will be transferred. According to the spreadsheet, I believe it should take up to 57 days. (I am on Day 34)
Why do you assume ecas is updated on a Tuesday? It usually takes 2 days before you would be able to see any update if your application has been indeed updated so I would expect Wed or Thursday instead if it has been updated yesterday.
My file has been "In Process" since April 20 (Toronto- Scarborough office). So take it easy. Transfer will come soon.December_Applicant said:
