January 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[scvcan]

In the same boat as you @rushi.gada. Makes me regret not filing online lmao dont know if it would have changed anything. I ordered my notes last week so hopefully they come through soon. It just sucks seeing people apply in april and may and get their oaths completed while we're stuck in LPP phase

And here I am.. regretting an online application. I know a bunch of folks who chose to go with paper-based applications and got processed in a jiffy!

I don’t think that paper or online application made any difference (at least this year). I have seen different people who applied in different ways and each applicant got a different timeline regardless of how they applied.

True that!

Thank you @Afunks. I just emailed them. I don't know whats the hold up at their end.

Have you been able to download it now? I haven't!

I completed my oath today. I have to say, I was hit with a wave of emotion that I was not expecting. The ceremony itself was quick. All of the staff were so friendly. Last step is the certificate.

So happy for you! Congratulations

Agree! It's luck of the draw with IRCC... Hope our files get drawn soon!

Grass always seems greener on the other side eh?

Interestingly enough, I got my post-test update (invitation to interview) exactly 4 months after my test update.

I think the case officers only work on files who've been waiting over 4 months post test to be prioritized. I do believe that most of us will not wait longer than 6 months post test to get our oath invitation. In either case, I wish we all get through this sloppy mess, soon!

Nope, I am still unable to download the certificate. I have dropped them another email. Lets c.

I’m really sorry that your file still has not moved along. I’m sending lots of good thoughts your way.

Hey friends,

I've received GCMS notes twice, and they both show:

• Primary office: CPC Sydney
• Secondary office: Mississauga

LPP hasn't started yet; it's due in 2024/02/18.

Question: Is it normal for my SIN on GCMS notes to be 000000000?

If folks could please double check their own GCMS notes and update me back pls, I would really appreciate that. Thank you!
