I would send online form inquiring about my application, I think most of OCT16 got at least AOR. don't panic. just inquire about your application using the webform or by calling them.

Lucky are the people who are getting progress on their application and here i am wondering what possibly went wrong with my application, i checked it well before sending, application was received on Oct 19 and nothing after that. I feel so disappointed that even after submitting my application way ahead didn't really helped. Application has not been returned but no response on web inquiry has been answered either. God knows in which pile my application is collecting dust or its just the case of me losing patience now.... God please don't be so cruel
I sent my app On Oct 12
Received on Oct 16
No AOR yet
I am losing my patience too
They are not doing fair , when I spoke to call center my app is received but not opened yet , they told me to wait 6 more weeks and call them back but I am thinking to follow up with my MP.

@razerblade what documents should I bring with me for citizenship interview?
Honestly, I don't think I'm really qualified to answer that. I haven't gone for the interview yet. @Stef., would you please guide us here ? Thanks!

I remember reading that the following original documents are a MUST:
Passports (all, including expired ones that fall within your eligibility period)
Driver's license, Health Card (All original ID proofs that you submitted with your app)
COPR
PR card
English language proof (original IELTS/transcript/degree/dimploma)

Also, found the following quote from someone who went for the test. Hope it helps.

1st you write test, then move to another room with interviewers which will call you by name.

Then the agents have to fill File Requirements Checklist on your case during an interview, so they will be asking you to show documents and answer questions. Interview takes about 5 minutes normally. They also will let you know test score in the beginning.

Here's the list of items on checklist, so an agent will have to go through all of these with you:

INTERVIEW
- Identification: Original of 2 IDs submitted with application have been verified (including 1 photo ID)
- Immigration documents originals verified (IMM 1000/5292/5509/5686 and PR Card)
- Signature verified
- Biopage/Renewal page of passport/Travel document provided
- Passports/Travel documents relevant to entire 4 year period
- Passport/Travel documents verified against absences declared on application or RQ (if applicable)
- Work/Education discussed
- Prohibitions declared at interview
- Residence QUestionnaire given at interview with CIC official
- Language (choose one): Satisfactory, Waived, Hearing
- Special Remarks/Explanations/Concerns/or Follow-ups to items from Part A

I think a Canadian university degree should suffice. In fact, that was the only language proof I included in my application package. BTW, have you received a test invite letter?


Hi Guys,

What should I bring with me original documents with the interview?

I just noticed that I gave away the original English test! what should I do?

is it okay if I bring a different proof of English proof, like Canadian university degree?

My 2 cents: don't panic. Oct applicants are still getting AOR. Call center agent is correct in this case, your application hasn't been opened yet.

Did you send via regular mail, or expresspost, or courier ?
Did someone sign for your application on delivery ?
Did you create a copy of your application before sending it ? If so, I would urge you to review it multiple times to make sure you didn't make any errors nor miss any documents.

If someone signed for your application on delivery, and you filled out everything correctly as well as included all requested documents, you will get AOR eventually.
