September 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[Farah2018]

My Application status is changed to "Closed" today.

Hi, Did you apply for urgent processing? Can you please confirm your processing office? Thanks.

Anyone noticed what time in the month the processing offices start to send Oath invitation ? What I think of is that they have monthly quota for files to be completed. Any idea ?

Usually beginning of the month I think.

Is your PO Scarborough?

Yes Scarborough

It looks like we will be waiting until next month to start seeing new changes on our applications which means we will complete ( 12 months )

Applied on Sept 15th 2021, all completed July 28, ghost update on Aug 4, citizenship ceremony not started.

I am exactly the same timeline as you. Still no Oath invitation!

Same. I called them today. They said the citizenship is granted already, and we will have to wait until they go through the people in the line for oath. So it’s the waiting game now.

Same here. Applied online in late September 2021. Everything has became completed except for the oath since July 25, 2022. Oath is still "Not Started".

Cool, thank you for the explanation. It’s been 3.5 months since test marked completed for me. Everything else, including BGC, is in progress. Seriously considering applying for notes but will wait maybe another two weeks.

same for me, I completed the test on may 12th, no update since then, everything else is in progress!
Wonder how much longer will it take from here

Completed the test in may and nothing since!
I believe this office is particularly slow, ugh!

I think it depends on luck and the country you came from, my friend is also with Scarborough and she got her citizenship. Nothing we can do.

Same office in my case. Only test completed and everything else in progress.

 

[Farah2018]

It has been 4 months since my citizenship test status changed to "Completed". After that, there is no update on my citizenship application. Within 2 weeks it will be 1 year of my citizenship application. As per recent posts, there is nothing we can do except waiting which is very frustrating. Is there any way to contact Scarborough office?
