It is the North American bureaucracy which is spread across all sectors, not only immigration. You should see it in the corporate world lol.
July 2020 - Citizenship application
- Thread starter anton1990
- Start date
I had to do it at an approved RCMP agency as Police stations were not conducting this service during Covid. They are done electronically and they take your picture as well. It costs $55 plus tax and takes three to four business days (if clear) before they send it to Sydney.
Few folks from Jan and Feb 2020 have been invited for tests so finally it has reached early 2020. Still quite a few 2019 backlog to be cleared so hoping its done soon
Hello everyone,
im a pretty crazy situation. I would love to get some advice !
Application sent: July 15 2020
Application received: July 21 2020
On Jan 21, I finally got a letter in the mail (even tho I chose email for preferred contact)
they have deemed my application INCOMPLETE saying that all forms Were signed and dated more than 3 months before the date of... Receipt/Beginning of processing? (not sure)
This is not true. I signed and dated the applications by hand on the day I mailed them.
I have waited 8 months for this answer. They are returning my pay and are asking me to submit a new application where the date and signature is less than 3 months old.
how can they do this?????? Can I contest this decision? This is delaying the whole process by almost a year for me...

even if you are going to contest this decision, you have to submit your application again with IRCC
