London, ontario citizen applicants

[Owais Iqbal]

Congrats Hattoba! The journey is over for you!

I am still In Process and I am sure there is no issue with my application so I don't know what they are doing. I hope they have not forgotten about my application!

That's just how they are No reply for me yet. I have requested GCMS notes as well in September. Let's see when they show up.

It is a small office Owais, and I think there are only two officers handling London's office. I saw someone else in March spreadsheet who got DM 4 weeks after test! Seeing that calmed me down! They will probably change it DM when they invite me for oath! And I really hate the idea of calling them since it takes such a long time to get hold of an agent! Ugh ...

I hate saying this over and over again but be patient!!

I am in no hurry my friend. I just wonder what's going on there. I have waited this long. I know it's not too far

I am not in much hurry either but I don't find it fair! What I saw was a small office and only two officers were interviewing people. It means that if you are the last to finish your test you will have to wait a long time until you get interviewed! I think they need to be more transparent. And it sucks that we can't contact our local office directly! There should at least be an email address or something!

That does suck. But I guess they might schedule an officer's all cases in one day? You might see 2 officers but others might be working on the cases instead of interviewing? I don't know. I do agree that we should be able to contact them directly, but may be they haven't done it because contacting them would increase their time lost to answering questions that a call center can handle.

I don't think there are other officers, Owais. I was talking to other friends who went through the same process last year and all of them had interview with one of the two officers I saw!

That's really depressing. That would explain why it takes so long for these applications.

Okay I called them. First time, it got disconnected. Second time, I could talk to an agent, he looked into my application and said everything is normal, blah blah blah ...

I asked him to send a note to London and he refused. He said that he could see a note was sent before and my case was escalated!!!!! abd I got invited to the test immediately after the note! Who was he joking?

So the call got disconnected again and I called for the third time (I know I am going crazy with it!). Another agent told me again that it is normal. Then, she said let me give you a time frame, if by Oct. 17th you don't see a change, call us and we will contact London office. I asked her to contact them now and she refused!

I could get hold of an agent immediately every time I called. I think after 3 pm is a good time to call them!

Hey guys,

I have finally received invitation to appear for test/interview on November 7th. I received the invite on October 4th. I guess it was all scheduled already but they didn't want to send an invite earlier than a month or so. Calling them made them move anyway so they decided to just get it over with.

I think they see a date on your file and know that you will receive the oath invite soon. Just a thought. It will be soon hopefully.
