October 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[BillHyatt]

Hey I’m too in same situation they asked my all passport copies and submitted on November
25th 2022 and so far only physical presence to be completed but no change on that yet

I can understand it's so frustrating waiting for so long. Are you a single applicant or applied as a family?

I am seeing many family applicants getting approvals faster than single applicants.

Does anyone know how much time IRCC is taking nowadays to send Oath invites after everything is completed?

It took 10 days

Hi, I applied for citizenship (sent papers) in Oct 2021, received AOR in January 2022. I have not heard back ever since. Anyone on the same boat? When can I expect citizenship test?

Have you called IRCC or raised webform? Have you linked the file to the online portal? It is strange to have no movement for so long.

Yes i did it online and hence individual apps

Same situation. My wife and I applied online. I submitted first and then she the following day. Her application is still pending LS, PP, Prohibition, and Oath schedule. BG completed already. She took the test ahead of me.

Hello, just wondering if anyone here from Prince Edward Island got their citizenship recently? I have my oath scheduled for the upcoming week, so wanted to know how long it took for you to get your citizenship certificate and your passport. Also, starting January 4, 2023 I believe they started issuing the e-certificates, so wanted to know if anyone had any luck with that.

Thanks in Advance for any leads!

Hi everyone, how long did it take you to receive your certificate after the oath ceremony. Is there a way to have that processed urgently?

Recently, people in my known have received them within 10 days of the ceremony. For urgent processing, I am not aware of the process.
