October 2022 Citizenship Applications

Congrats! I am kind of in the similar boat as you, I think I may be the last person in the January 2023 thread

Thanks for sharing. I'm not sure which office is handling my case, but the last time (two months ago) I called IRCC, the officer said it was Sydney. My application is a routine one, but it's obviously taking longer to process at almost every step. I've been waiting for more than 18 months.

But, alas, I've read enough posts in the forum to understand that I'm not alone. I don't think I can do anything to expedite IRCC's haphazard manner. I'll wait another month to see how it proceeds before calling IRCC again or writing to my MP. Good luck!

Finally, this journey is over, I was silent attendant the whole time.

I have seen a lot of valuable insights and tips to follow with my application, that helped me to move my application, such as calling MP, apply for ATIP, calling IRCC and sending Web forms.

I want to say thank you for everyone shared their experience. And deeper thanks for those created this platform and gave people the opportunity to help each other.

For those who are waiting to complete the journey, I will say, take it easy and keep swimming your day is just around the corner.

I have seen a lot of positive feedback recently, and applications are moving faster than ever, especially at Scarborough Office.
