January 2022 - Citizenship Applications

[opotato]

So you did the test? I did not even receive an invitation
How do i know what my office is?


Is that what you did? This really seems to be the last resort - so i might do that. Did they update your status short after?

I wrote to my MP and from what I can see in the notes the day they called IRCC is the day my application was approved, after 4 months of inactivity. Maybe that’s just a coincidence, a lucky one then.

I am an applicant from Kitchener but my processing office is Niagra, waiting for an update on oath, everything completed for me on February 03rd

Did you get a ghost update today?

I had background complete on September 1st and since then nothing at all (I was not invited to the citizenship test yet!)
I am French and located in Toronto, Canada. There is absolutely nothing peculiar with my application.
I have sent an email to ask the status of my request, and after 2 months they answered the typical answer along the lines "everything is normal and as expected and you need to wait".
I did an ATIP request on February 2nd and I still did not receive anything (we are over the 30 calendar days).
It's like they are filtering my application for a reason I can not start to understand.

What would you advise me to do from here?

I think contacting your local MP won't hurt your file at all. It can definitely speed things up.

It really helped me out in the PR process.

Hi bud, if you don't mind what did you write in a letter.?

A question to applicants with minor... does the minor's application proceed along with the parent's application with the same speed? In my case, my BG is marked clear but son's application has got no updates after AOR. Shouldn't minor's BG also marked as cleared if the parent's has cleared the BG?

Minor applications don't show any changes in the tracker until the very end. Once parents are approved, it will automatically get approved

Do we anyone on this thread - Who has been waiting more than 6 months for an oath request after the Citizenship test. NOTE: non - routine is exceptional. So in a nutshell, not a non-routine file but still waiting for more than 6 months for your Oath - from the time you completed your test.

As IRCC says they take about 4-6 months between Citizenship test and the Oath lets hope they come back with an update before the deadline. Hopefully i will recv an update before 6th April as i completed my Citizenship test on 6th October.

Nothing for me, hope you get something in coming days, best of luck.

From June 2023, the oath is going to be self-administered; hence, 3 months delay will be reduced.

I believe that it is still not finalized as the survey is on until 27th March.
