still nothing bruv? :D
still nothing.

MP Office finally got back to me and IRCC mentioned my file is with the responsible office and the next step is to set up the ceremony date.
While we understand that this is an important matter for the applicant, we are unable to provide a timeframe for the citizenship ceremony. Rest assured that the responsible office will contact the applicant directly, once a ceremony has been scheduled.

Well then, we about to continue waiting lol At least, I got AOR for my PR renewal. I am really crossing my fingers that something happens before the end of the year.

Im a girl btw :p

all good, no way for you to know my gender!

ugh, this is so silly tbh . It's odd that it is taking this long, at least I know they mailed out my PR card yesterday. Need a vacation while they sort themselves out.

did you also renew your PR card?

Hi Saleem,
If you are still watching this thread, how did you request for an urgent citizenship certificate? Did you have to provide proof of travel??
Hi varungole,

Wondering if you requested an urgent processing for the citizenship certificate? If yes, when - during the ceremony or before? Also what evidence did you provide?

Thanks!
