@ comestai: when your file was approved/granted by St. Clair office? (Date can be found in your ATIP, if you have ever applied for that).

@ Tbb: What is the date you returned your RQ to the CIC?

@ 006007 : Is your test/interview office the same as St. Clair? If yes, do you mind to share your timeline? (1. Start processing, 2. sending back RQ to CIC, 3. Test/interview in St. Claire )

@ ronin21 : congrats! :) (just to be sure: was your test/interview in St. Clair office?

Congrats !!!. What we read on this forum from the candidates whose files got approved in the last couple of months, at an average from the date of approval its taking about 90 days to schedule the Oath ceremony.

Read on other forum, CIC transfering some files to Missisuage location too for Oath ceremony. Its bad but you got few more weeks wait.

Ideally you must direct all your correspondence to your local office, where you had your Citizenship test.

Its advisable to document all your interactions with the CIC for record's sake, but its hard to guess how soon they would respond. Knowing from the CIC recording on Call Center NEW phone system, they have NOT yet opened applications received after July 24, 2014. :eek:

Perhaps, the CIC department has ONLY one person working there - Minister of Immigration ;D ;D ;D

If your file was approved and moved to Scarborough. Its taking between 80-90 days for Oath from the date of approval. CIC call center staff work as the attack dogs, they discourage candidates from calling them. So they tell callers NOT to call before 35 months. So, dont worry. ;D
