Hamilton

No still waiting. I asked my MP office to get an update on my application. I called IRCC call centre a week back and the agent was so rude that i felt like hanging up on her. She is like why did u call we don't have any information about local office, but again u gotta have patience to deal with that. I just wanna get over with this waiting and dealing with IRCC.

Agree with you. Hopefully you hear something from the MPs office and the Hamilton office, can push out the application from DM to Oath. Quite ironically a lot of applications are going through to Oath and it's not clearly in the order it was received. It's getting to be very random. Mailed the office and a canned reply, and nothing specific. It's odd that decision made to Oath needs to be this long, when there are less moving parts and way less logistics involved, when oath is done online, yet a huge delays and a never ending backlog.

Just to get an idea. Can anyone specify the average time taken, for the Hamilton office, from the second fingerprint request to the oath invite. My citizenship text has already been completed.

Not very sure. There is not much of a trend , to compare. Mine is DM from March 18. Fingerprint to DM shouldn't be more than 2-3 weeks.

That's good to hear. Hopefully you will get an oath invite soon.

Checked the new tracker today & noticed that a second FP request will be emailed. As of now, I have yet to receive the second FP request.

Heard back from the MP's office and nothing different. I was told that everything is completed just wait for the oath ceremony invite but no time frame. This waiting is honestly killing me.

Thank you. I also received a second fingerprint request yesterday.

Guess with IRCC, when it rains, it definitely pours .

@ccolscorpion
That is nice to know. So everything is going great, except we haven't received any oath invites . Another week of June....
I am very hopeful it would be coming in the coming weeks

Hopefully the re-opening this weekend, can speed up things and some movement can be seen.
It has been rather slow - has anyone received or seen any progress on the applications from the Hamilton Office
This info from the site, that within 90 days of the test, there would be citizenship ceremony is possibly something that will change... owing to the backlogs created during the pandemic. I am at the3rd month mark, as would be most applicants, who have possibly waited longer than 3 months from DM to no progress thereafter....

Get your citizenship ceremony date
About 1 to 2 weeks before the ceremony, we’ll send you a notice with the date, time and location. The ceremony will usually take place within 3 months after your test.

Has anyone received any updates from the Hamilton office. Wanted to see, if there has been some or any movement after the end of lockdown.

No. I guess they are not hosting any ceremonies anytime soon.

Yeah that is what I think too. One of their replies stated an "Upcoming Ceremony"
Though this sounds great, no clue, when the upcoming is ?

 

[matlal]

Apparently, there is an upcoming Oath Ceremony , as per the Hamilton office, though not sure, when that "upcoming" is ?
If anyone gets a date for the Hamilton office for the Oath, that would be nice to know.
