November 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[Kan_Sri]

Someone else on the forum did exactly the same(sent missing ids for minors) and received AOR last week. You should receive yours soon too. Good luck!

Here is their timeline.

Thank You Rajmalhotra.

Though my app originally delievered on Nov 23 but then returned for a missing doc. App resent and delivered on Dec 28. The package states that my and my spouse app is complete but not for the child and I need to add a doc and resent the package back. Do you think this may cause delays in my AOR?
Also, my child's India passport is expiring in Sept'2018. I was wondering whether I need to renew it by the time citizenship case is in process?

Any comments.

Thank You

It depends on the local CPC which will be handling your file. Typically 2-4 weeks, some take longer. Please refer to the spreadsheet (link in my signature).

"In process" means that your file has been transferred From CPC-Sydney to a local case processing center located near your home address. Your file has now begun real processing and will undergo background, eligibility, criminality etc checks.

Looking at other threads, "In Process" now-a-days not only means your application is sent to local office, it also means your application may also be picked for a (supposedly) "random pre-test audit" right there in Sydney.....more and more case are getting it now.

I would guess it's just oath after that, assuming the officer is satisfied with the applicant's physical presence claims.

Yes, most probably, which makes it the same timeline as any other application I guess.
Am actually quite surprised on how the timelines are always changing.

I have a question though, My parents PR card just expired, and we have some travel plans mid May. Their application was just confirmed received last week. Originally, I wasnt planning on renewing their PR Cards, but because of the current wait time, I am thinking of sending their PR renewal this week. What do you guys think?

Thank you.

Just to add info to timelines. Not necessarily be added to the spreadsheet.

My mother applied for her own citizenship grant. Recieved on November 11, got AOR today.

No AOR for my own application, however.

You don't have to if you do not want to. Let them know during your interview/ test that you do not intend to renew passport after Sept'18 and would wait for Oath and Canadian passport. You can cite reasons as you do not plan to travel and save money for renewal.

Thanks rajmalhotra. Really appreciate your prompt response.

Hello guys, which office processes applications for Kingston Ontario?

Most probably Ottawa, due to close proximity.

Application sent: October 26, 2017
Application Delivered: November 1, 2017
AOR: December 18, 2018
Family of 4
Location: Fox Creek Alberta

Question: If you received you AOR, does this means they already screened your documents submitted and only wait for the citizenship test?

Good luck to everyone. ;-)
