May 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[NIHIB]

May online applicant here. everything is showing completed but ceremony since March 1. I’m not sure I understand the timeline anymore. At this point I’m just being patient and waiting for them to invite me to attend the oath ceremony when they are ready cos I can’t seem to get connected to speak with an agent when I call. My friends application has been over 2 years now, some things are still pending so I guess I can’t complain. Anyways wishing everyone the very best with the process.

this is almost the exact same as me. Everything except oath was marked complete on March 11th!! I keep seeing everyone else get their oath quite soon after everything completes and it it both worrying and frustrating. I sent a web form enquiry 3 weeks ago and have heard nothing from that either!!
Has anyone contacted their office any other way. My test invite came from Niagara Falls!!

Hello,

We arrived in Canada on November 24th 2019. We didn't have any income in Canada in November and december 2019. We filed the taxes in Canada for FY 2019 reporting the foreign income till november 2019 and took the foreign tax credits.
For Years 2020 and 2021, we had income in Canada and filed the taxes in Canada.

Our physical presence of 1095 days will be completed on November 24th 2022. So, can we apply for Citizenship considering the physical presence of 1095 days in canada and 3 years of tax filings. Or the Tax filings of 3 years should include the 1095 days too? Please advise.

Heard from a May applicant that during the Oath ceremony he was told by the Presiding Judge that they conduct 4 oath sessions per day each with about 30-40 candidates. In the last 6-7 months close to 15,000 candidates were sworn in as citizens by that 1 judge, and almost all the oath sessions for next month is fully reserved.

Hi folks,

Following has been my citizenship application timeline:
1. Application (Physical) received for grant of Citizenship: May 3, 2021
2. AOR sent: July 29, 2021
3. Application started processing: October 22, 2021.

My application is still in progress. Is this normal or is mine too slow? Anyone else whose application is still "In process"?
Moreover, any cheat code on how to get through an IRCC official? It never goes through!

Thanks in advance!

I did and app wasn't returned. My first year return (via TurboTax) was for a partial year (4 months) with no income, no credits, just some interest income from banks which too weren't taxed.

Anyone took the oath and can tell how much time it needs from starting time to end?

Completed my oath on May 10. Still haven't received the certificate. I read some people are getting automated emails while sending the signed Oath form. I've checked multiple times the return email id and sent the oath form to the correct email address but I haven't received any automated emails.

Should I worry now . Everything is getting delayed due to certificate not delivered..

Hi @tisha511 ,
My Oath was also on May 10th and I did not receive any automated email response when I sent the Oath form. My certificate hasn't arrived yet. Many people on this forum seem to have received their certificates within 3 weeks. I am still waiting

Honestly, do not know. Maybe try to call IRCC to figure out what to do....

I requested for ATIP notes last week and got an email with a temporary request tracking #.
How can I track my request and how much time does it takes to get the notes?

Did you receive a new number now? The email should say the following words: "After your request has been registered, a new number will be assigned to your request."

I applied it on Apr. 29th, today (May 30) I still do not receive a new number.
