Hi,

The cic call center agents always advise that for applications that entered in RQ "black" tunnel, the citizenship office will reply within max of 35 months from the date the citizenship application was received. Means that if the application was received in Aug 2011 and then entered in RQ tunnel, the citizenship office is "obliged" to reply by July 2014.

Is this true or not actually applied in the reality?

Thanks

Purple

Right, it's the same since Sept 2012.

CIC talks to their clients like they're dumb 5 year olds and presents info and justifications in a manner of a North Korea's press office.

"— Our old people live in shacks and dugouts because they're traditional and they like to do so".

LOL.

That's funny. :)

Of course, the PMO's office isn't much better. "I am proroguing Parliament so the country can focus on the Olympics." Sure you are!

I had RQ and just got my citizenship couple of weeks ago. The whole thing took about 30 months for me.. Maybe it depends how strong your RQ evidence is

Hi

I have crossed 40 months still no reply. And no it does not depend on how strong your RQ evidence is because they have not reviewed the file yet. My backrgound checks have expired and they need to redo it and then the RQ will be reviewed. I know that the background checks are expired from the ATIP report. Did your background checks ever expire? You will know this if you had asked for a ATIP report when you were waiting. Maybe you finished in 30 months because the background checks did not expire or got redone faster in your case. And I assume your RQ was at St clair.
