I understand that 2020 and earlier applicant's are having extreme delays. However , 2021 applicants have a different story. Those that applied jn early months of 2021 have already received their passports by now. How is progress of 2021 applicants in Kitchener ?
Kitchener was very good to me during my processing . I applied June 24 2021 , and I’ve been done with this prices since April . Just waiting for my passport now

Everything updated on May 24th as completed but on May 25th last update ... everything green except Oath.
We applied on March 2nd 2020 , had background check in 2021 and test on February 2nd ( period given was Feb2 - Feb 22) ...they marked as completed on February 14th ....that was last updated before everything turned completed on May 25th.
Checked also old tracker on May 25th says Decision Made.
