November 2025 - Citizenship Applications

[minathaika]

More than 3 months of silence, still waiting for the LPP. Called for ATIP Notes last month. Still no update

What's your timeline like? and any out of the norm events for you? leaving the country after submission? did the IRCC agent mention anything about your background/security check?

did you apply as a group? do you know what are your offices?

Thanks for sharing this! It's very helpful.

I guess you are right - I was quite patient until the 2 month mark from the test update and then it started to get frustrating after that lol ><

Are there other groups that are discussing long LPP wait times for single/group applicants?

Group applicant here..no news since April 1st and waiting test invite for my wife since early February.

Just received the oath invite email today! It's for a virtual ceremony. I've already sent a request for an in-person ceremony instead. Let's see how long that takes LOL!

I originally had a virtual ceremony scheduled for June 16th. Had ghost updates on June 2nd and 19th on the tracker.

Tracker updated today and I'm rescheduled for July 15th!

Thanks for your reply!
Congratulations on your application and Citizenship!

What was the timeline like for you? Did you apply for any ATIP notes while waiting for LPP or did they call you for an interview before approving the LPP stage? If so, did you travel outside the country after you submitted your application?

Apologies in advance for the multiple Qs - I am just trying to get some movement on my file ><

Thank you.

No ATIP, the phone interview was less than five minutes. They verified address, IDs, travel history, asked if I recently had any run ins with the law.
I did not have any travel history during the eligibility period and have not traveled since. I'm about to apply for my passport though and I will make up for those years of discipline
Hope this helps

Hang in there, I went 3 months without an update as well then suddenly everything happened fast. I only had about 3 weeks from LPP to oath

Hey, I am applying from North York, ON.


Did you already complete your test? and do you know which office is your primary/secondary?
Any may I also know how long it took for you to receive your ATIP notes? Did you apply for the free version - i.e., Request for personal information from CBSA?

I just applied for the notes on June 24. Not sure how long they take to process it :/
