Website says 1 year is normal processing time. However looking at the spreadsheets, you should hear soon. Mine is in IP since Jan 24th and yes family cases do take longer than individual and if the center is Scarboro or Missisauga then wait is even longer.
Thanks Adubey

Hello friends,

My status has been changed to Decision made on March 17th. No signs of Oath letter. Do you how long it usually takes to receive an oath letter.

Thank you!

Hi Guys,

I have a concern, I called CIC this morning I talked to a lady, I told her that I need to give updates to our application. My father's police clearance is still in process at the FBI, We will not meet the deadline CIC gave us. She told me that I need to write a letter to CIC requesting for extension. Is this right? Because in the letter we received from CIC we just need to call them. We received the CIT 0520 after our citizenship test. Thank you.

I would write to them and send it by registered post as well - just to ensure that I have evidence I sent it to them!

Why take a chance?

Alhamdulliah. Now I am proud Canadian Citizen. Last 12th April, 2017 I had my oath ceremony. I already applied for my passport. Everything's were so smooth by the grace of almighty Allah, though I was so tensed because I have long absence from Canada and was missing same day travel in USA.

Regarding my long absence I wrote a cover letter explaining the reason separately during application submission. After applying I realize I missed same day travel trip to USA. When I got my AOR then, I sent another cover letter to CIC and re submit the physical calculator again though the day calculation was same.

During interview they didn't ask any tough question just asked what is my intention to live in Canada. I saw they have my security clearance and CBA report, but still she checked each n every page of my both (expire n new) passport. I asked the office I had a same day travel in USA which I missed. Then she told, they have the update one, coz I resubmit both way ( in online and paper copy)

I would like to thanks all of the member of this forum, esp [size=10pt]imran01, thecoolguysam, .Steve, PVN, dkera[/size]

It was very nice to meet and get help from all of you.

Good luck everyone

Congrats NGE!!!

Can I ask you a question? I remember you were in Scarborough office.
Could you apply for a passport right away? Or did you have to wait 1-2 days?
