March - 2019 Citizenship Applications

[LambanoG]

Alright, i know some Ottawa applicants that got it by mail and not email. Is it random?

No. I choose provided my email address in my application which give IRCC consent to contact me via email and not mail

Hi,
I stopped at your note when you mentioned separately you, your wife and kids in your current status and not as one single package. I understood that each of you can have a different status and not treated under one application where the main applicant status applies to alp . Did you submit your application under a “family application “ with different emails or did you check each family member under their unique UCI number to know their status? I am asking because I only check my status and assume that my family is also the same and follow mine by default.
Appreciate your clarification

Yes, I have submitted as a family package, but they are still 4 applications for 4 people (and there is no main applicant for citizenship). I agree it may be excessive to check all 4 application states, but I usually do it only when my status is changed, out of obsession, to be sure that everything goes as it should for everyone.

I think they might be working on Parents and Grandparents applications at Mississauga. I've been In Process since July 9 and was hoping to get the test date by next week but at the rate they're going (or not going) I'm no longer hopeful.

Mine also almost same time. I expected to get Test Date by September or October , but it looks unlikely now. I also have submitted FB end of July.

On a positive note, apparently there's a pilot program that allows applicants to do the oath the day after passing the test. Hopefully they do that for the stalled applications.

It seems very slow for Mississauga. Based on the stats in the spreadsheet, I wouldn't expect a test invite before February 2020.

Guys, march applicant are more in number it seems like... So we have to wait a while I guess for the test invite.

Hi Guys

Hamilton applicant here and have been IP since July 2nd and application recieved on march 1st. No test invite. I also see that hamilton is also one of the slow processing offices. Was hoping to be able to finally vote this year, but I guess will have to wait another few years.

BTW where did you hear about this pilot program allowing test and oath right after? When is it gonna be implemented?

My coworker from Toronto had her test couple of weeks ago and she applied in Nov 2018. So it looks like applicants from Toronto will have the tests around November December 2019
