Folks,
Something terribly wrong with Calgary office, all other offices improving pretty fast, while eastern provinces are completing the process in 7months for testing, and Edmonton and BC offices are doing great, the Only and our unlucky/inefficient office is going backwards.....soon it will end up 24months or more. Whats wrong with you ? enough slept wakeup ....

Yeah, I called earlier this week. Lady asked my home address and then she said "what? What is Citizenship?Where is Calgary? We do not have any city named as Calgary and there is no citizenship office over there? You should call your country of residence for citizenship and do not bother again to waste my time. .............Never mind,,,,,In (very very very long) Process
Thank you! I can share my timeline from e-cas and please see below. As of today my e-cas have not changed to decision made from the oath ceremony but I did apply the Canadian passport today at Harry Hays building and my citizenship record has already been updated in the government system.Cic undercover agent said:

I applied in Jan 2013 and the total time is around 21 months. Logically I would say there may be some sort of small delay if you are transferring your case to a different location based on the LOT time. Again it is only based on my assumption but it should not be a big concern as far as being RQ. Always contact CIC as soon as you can for any changes and that's all you can do to make your case process smoother. From the Vancouver applicant post I notice that Vancouver CIC has been progressing faster in terms of test notification and oath so maybe you have a better chance of getting your citizenship faster than Calgary. Hope it helps!
My oath ceremony was scheduled in Nov 6th originally and the notification letter was received Oct 6th. A week later I received another notification letter saying my schedule date has been moved to Nov 4th instead. Did not receive any calls from CIC Calgary. I am guessing they want to fill in as many people per ceremony section as possible. Also notice they have 2 if not 3 sections in a day for oath ceremony.YYC_CICGUY said:

Also we can send tweet to minister. I believe all Calgary/Edmonton applicants should do so.
