September 2022 - Citizenship Applicants
- Thread starter linxord
- Start date
Very true. There is no point trying to predict. It’s all without a rhyme or reason. It’s very much dependent on local office or agent processing a file. There is no set pattern they follow and it’s very unpredictable.
My file is still in Sydney for some reason and not dispatched to a local office. I’m very keen to know if Sydney office has started processing applications also.
My BG is completed but not spouse’s ( security passed but not criminality) and it’s been more than a month with no further updates.
Hi Guys!
Aor sept 16
Location Toronto
Application online
GU Dec 16, Jan 14 & Jan 17
Jan 18 received email for FP from Vancouver office.
My question is after providing the FP to the IRCC does anyone has idea or similar experience when does they receive their BG complete and test invite?
I am just worried why for them asking for FP. I provided with biometric during the PR process. Having the FP request not a good sign?

Up to my knowledge it's normal to be asked for FP, I sent my FP as well and now just waiting, it could take 2 -4 weeks if there's no criminal record
When did you get your test invite?
FP is requested if you have a common name and they can't clear your Background check with just your name, place of birth, and DOB. Sometimes, it is also requested for programme quality assurance... Nothing to worry about
if someone calls out a name in a movie theater, and 2 or more people stand up, then they are eligible for FP requests. this isn't a great cause of worry, just that they have more people with that name or other matching details.
Try looking for pattern within the same location or same processing office. If you are from Montreal or Ottawa and compare the processing time with applicants from Toronto you will get disappointed. Some Toronto Applicants have got citizenship within 6-8 month which never happens for Ottawa or Montreal. Helps to set right expectation.
