October 2024 - Citizenship Applications

[Torontoboy1]

Thanks for sharing your timeline.
I always thought the most time-consuming part was the BG, and after that, LPP was very quick. But yours doesn't follow this.
I think it is a backlog somewhere with a whole bunch of applications piling up. I hope you hear good news very soon.

Hope so, thank you and all the best.

Any update from people waiting on their applications? I feel like I'm the only one waiting for my application to move forward, so annoying.

I have the same AoR (Oct 03, 2024) as yours with BG and prohibitions pending. At this point, I am convinced that it might take years to process.

My citizenship status tracker updated today

Scheduled for citizenship test New update
Citizenship test
You've been scheduled to take citizenship test online between April 10, 2026 and May 9, 2026. Information and instructions will be sent to you.

I submitted my application in 2024 Oct 16th,
Backgound Verification was done 13th Dec 2024
Then full silence. I know why, I applied with less Physical Presence since my previous application was abandend since I did not attend Oath multiple times since I got stuck in back home.
However I applied again with old application reference. They accepted and put on hold until now.

I see the above update now but I did not receive any email or letter,

I am currently in Europe, Do I need to travel back to take this exam or can be done from here?

Check the instructions. They used to say "contact us if you're out of the country" and they would usually give permission, but this may lead to them requiring you to show a boarding pass that you're in the country before they will schedule the Oath.

However, my instructions had no such clause and I had no issues taking it out of the country.

Oh you had to take the test outside Canada as well?

Thanks for the reply. Then I no need to rush. I will take exam here

Do you know how long usually IRCC to schedule oath after the test is done?

Time to oath is very different for different people. My test and oath letter were 46 days apart.
