October 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[Vidhyakuberan]

Yeah, I am in similar situation and I think there would be a few more. I believe your GCMS notes would show that the application is stuck at CPC-Sydney RC-8090, if yes can't do anything other than just waiting.

What does this mean, that’s exactly what it says in mine

It means the applications will be processed at CPC-Sydney, our application is part of some low priority queue for reasons unknown ... basically CPC Sydney has the luxury of keeping aside our applications and not working on them for as long as they want.

Background verification and prohibitions turned to Completed on Apr 25. Its all Green and Completed now. But no email regarding Oath. I am assuming its all done now and there will be another wait for getting the oath invitation. Does anyone knows how long it can take to get the Oath Invitation since now everything is completed?

BTW, we didnt renew the passport yet. Hopefully we will get the Oath Invite without too much delay.

Had our Oath today. Took nearly 2.15 hrs. Submitted the Oath of Citizenship form. Waiting for the certificate now. Overall it took nearly 7 months

any Oct. 2023 applicant waiting for Prohibition completion?

 

[October_16]

any Oct. 2023 applicant waiting for Prohibition completion?

Lpp completed May 9
Waiting for ceremony to start

 

[bonmatin2022]

any Oct. 2023 applicant waiting for Prohibition completion?

Yes! Submitted Oct 9 in Montreal, LP completed;
Prohibition and BG: In process.
I don't know why my application is taking this long. My friend submitted her app about the same time (in Ontario) and got her citizenship certificate a few months ago.

 

[sweet2818]

any Oct. 2023 applicant waiting for Prohibition completion?

My Prohibition completed on May 21st - updated on portal today.

 

[October_16]

Any update for October applicants?
LPP completed May 9 and oath still not started

 

[ajamal]

My app on 24 October
Aor 17 November
Test complete
BG is still inprogress
I contacted SCR they mentioned

“Thank you for contacting our office. This is to inform you that your application is pending for a positive decision by the citizenship officer. When validation is completed, you are going to be contacted for the ceremony by the local Immigration Refugees”

What does the massage mean? Is it generic

Did anybody get update?
I have never seen update since December last year when I passed the citizenship test.
Clearly, processing time of citizenship is 8 months according to the IRCC website, but nothing changed yet.
I really have no idea about reason why it is delayed too much.

Any update on your application ? I am in the same boat, only thing completed is citizenship test and no update since december 2023.
