November 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[CAforCA]

Can't believe it 41 applicants from November list from Brampton and Mississauga and only one has got test invite 5 months gone with only movement to IP.

There is no ban on discussing about the interview process, or the test itself. Else, forums like these wouldn't exist.

Btw, the interview is an amicable and simple tête-à-tête. Used to discuss and verify your travel history and the docs (of all types) you submitted. The general idea is to tally everything that you stated ~ re: your residency eligibility.

So much paranoia on this forum.

Hello everyone,
I finally decided to create an account here and ask my question. And I am really appreciative to anyone who can add input and help.
I sent my application for citizenship from Montreal (single) on November 24th, 2017 and it was received on November 27th, 2017.
My days are 1099.
Until now I have not received my AOR. I called the call center more than 10 times until they confirmed that my application package is physically there (delivered) but not opened yet. This was 2 months ago. No news until now and every-time I call, I am told to wait. Every single one of my friends (like 5 people) who applied around the same time got their AOR a long time ago. Some of them even got their oath invitation.
What can I do?

You have 5 friends who are applying for citizenship? You must have a lot friends who are PR of this country

To you question though, you can try contact your MP and see if they can do anything for you. Other than that, there is nothing you can do yourself...

What is an urgent processing ? What qualifies one for this?

Hello, we are on same boat. we sent our applications for citizenship from GTA(family) on November 17th, 2017 , it was received on November 20th , 2017, until now we have not received our AORs. We sent WEB form request twice, We called several times to CIC, agent from CIC sent request to Sydney office behind us but he said that Sydney office has up to 3 months to answer. People here recommended to refer to your MP. So we did it , now we are waiting some answer from our MP , who sent request to Sydney office behind us and Sydney office should answer in 10 business days.
Maybe try to refer to your MP. Good luck.

I have a feeling that staffing levels, overtime, whatever things were put into place to deal with the October rush are now back to normal. We used to see activity on Saturday but not anymore. If your case hasn't advanced for a while, settle in, the time frames are moving back to the historical norms.
