December 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[VFX_man]

Exactly 5 months have passed since my application was in IP. About three months away from the one year deadline of processing my application

Think a few of us are in that boat . . . hang tight is all I can say.

For me:
8 months since they received it
6 months since AOR
5 months IP

Same here. Our application is IP since March 2nd. No progress yet.

Waiting for this long is frustrating, especially that I have an international travel coming up in the mid of next month...

Same here. My application is in IP since april 2018. No updates yet. It seems like these people forgot the applications from KW area.

How come you live in Toronto but your case is processed in St. Claire?
Did you send your application from St. Claire?
