Normal Processing Times from Calgary office?

[Eminem slim shady]

So basically there was no clarification from CJ in regards to Calgary s delay.

Doesn't look like CIC nor the Citizenship Commission is taking the citizenship programme seriously at all. No transparency , no new ideas on how to make things move faster here in Calgary, no nothing. I might as well move to the Okanagan as I plan to and have my application transferred to Vancouver where I will receive my citizenship a heck of a lot faster than this place that is holding us up for no sensible reason.

I've been waiting to hear something from them for month now, personally I know a couple of them who share my timeline and have become citizens in the past 30 days. So, unless they are really falling behind, I don't see why having a same application time line would cause such a test/oath timeline discrepancy, couple of weeks to a month is normal, Not even a test date for me yet, so going by the minimum time frame for my oath, I am a good 3-4 months (quarter) behind them, which makes no sense at all.

My timeline is pretty much like you, I have done my test and waiting for oath invitation. It seems they are really slow these days.

I have the same timelines as "pondering.in.prairies" and still waiting for my test.

Looking at the spread sheet, apart from one test in September, with most of them in August, I don't see any test notifications at all, been reading the thread and looks like a lot them who have already taken the test are waiting for an oath. What is Calgary office up to? No major updates for a couple of months now? Does this have anything to do with the change in the application process ? (previously it was the Judge and now it is the Case Processing Worker), if that is the case, shouldn't it speed up the processing times not slow it down?

 

[irajmirza]

Everything shows a severe slow down, maybe they are speeding up the new applications. We cannot do anything and we can just wait.

Texan01 - good to hear from you.

Over all this is really weird as CIC Calgary is all over the place. As per the sheet shozee, Dreamchaser and Texan01 should have got their test invite before SaffaMan, as all three have an earlier application send, in process and LOT dates.

I know for all three of them there has been no correspondence between CIC Calgary since they applied, therefore there should be no hold up. All of this makes it very hard to predict how long it test notification process is.

Hi
You may refer to the spreadsheet of this group if you haven't already . You will find it on page 32 of this thread.
There in no really idea of whom is going to take the test next. Just waiting is what people recommend now.
My file was transferred in March 2014 too but no word for a test yet..

Congratulations! That's a very promising news for people waiting for oath, just curious did you see your e-case updated about the oath info too?

E-case has not updated as of this moment. Seems to be very slow to login in the daytime tho.
