November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

[Major2710]

Based on what it says, it sounds like Vancouver received my web form and marked it complete, not Calgary. They emailed the clerk it says. I think Vancouver via web form marking it complete got me my e-certificate in the portal, without action from Calgary who was ignoring me.


Probably yes on GCMS. But we are already waiting on GCMS from IRCC so I'll see what that one shows before submitting a new one to CBSA.

I don't know what "PII" and "PPT" mean in relationship to the application or what is being waived. I tried Googling. We were not present on a temporary visa. We only entered as visa-free visitors in the past and then as PRs on COPR.

Got me thinking if I should webform or ask for my notes from
Cbsa first

 

[Major2710]

I already have requested from ircc

I'm not sure what your situation is. The reason I used a web form is to send my oath form after my virtual oath, because Calgary did not reply to my emails and did not make my e-certificate available. I sent a web form to "timestamp" it within 48 hours which is the required time frame to sign and return it.

Yeah I feel like (see my prior posts looking at data from the Google sheet and MyImmiTracker) processing has stopped, other than scheduling oaths for people already clear to take the oath. I feel like I made it in under the wire (but not my wife).

LPPs are really just trickling now. There were a ton in March and just a tiny number in April (in the data we have).

My intuition is that PII is the interview, and PPT the request for all pages of passport. These used to be standard I think and now being waived routinely but likely under a program that continues to consider them standard and waived at discretion of some delegated authority level.

That sounds very rational and probable. I’m glad to see my full CBSA notes. Feels great as a capstone (along with my in-process passport).

I am kinda lucky to have my LPP completed middle of March, but since then its silence like others. On the other hand my wife got her AOR in April first week and ghost update only few days ago. I did raise a webform that kindly we need an idea about my oath approx time, so we can plan travel due to medical emergency. However, no movement. Lets see how it goes. I feel things will move post elections.

Anyone have the email address for MTL event office?
I haven’t received the oath invitation email and it was scheduled for April 24th. Also checked my junk folder that’s not for it.
I think I have to do something or I might missed it.

Requested GCMS from CBSA (it was faster than IRCC for me) for @WifeOfUSProgrammer. November AOR with test/background complete since 2/18 with no LPP or oath yet.

I'm quite convinced that pending citizenship applications are due to the changing government. When I attended my oath ceremony in Dec, there was a recording of PM Justin Trudeau welcoming us as citizens. It makes sense they would need to have a recording from the new Prime Minister before scheduling and processing new oaths. Mark Carney is only a "placeholder", after all.

Once the new PM takes office, I assume it will take about a month for them to record the new welcome message and appoint a new immigration minister before we'll see oath ceremonies being scheduled again as new administration settles in.
