I thought to share this with you. I phoned CIC to check on the status of my application since I was moving from a city to another, and I was not sure if it was wise to change my local office at the time or to leave it as it is. The agent told me that my application is at very early stage. I phoned next day and the agent told me that my application is just waiting for the test to be scheduled. Second day I found that my test was scheduled.

Lesson learnt you can get very different answer from different CIC agents!
 
It happens very often , you can see replies from people on this forum with their personal experience of calling CIC agents.
Flocan , looking at the nickname I assume that Oct13 applied in October 2013. ;)

What was your first local office? and which was the city you were moving to that would change the office?

It would be appreciated if you share your timeline too ;)

Wish you all the best in the test and oath soon :)

Do you think your query caused someone to check your file and as it was routine expedite it?
 
No I do not think so.

I just believe that not all the agents do their job on the same passion!
 
so true, sometimes you get really nice agents who will go out of there way to help you, and sometimes don't even bother...
