So, are we ready for round 2 of threads and tweets?
 
I started a tread for today, your support is much appreciated...

I would suggest to keep all tweets inside the original tweet in the first post of this thread. A tweet with more participations is more likely to catch their eyes. They could see from the number of interactions that many people are really not happy. Numbers matter when it comes to brining attention. Also, it's not easy to follow many tweets. It's just my suggestion
 
i'll move it to the the original tread :)
 
Another Feb 2021 got their DM in less than 9 months. I waited 18 months to do the test, and 21 month to DM and I am still waiting for the oath. My application has been in process for about 24 months. How is this fair?

now they’re rubbing salt on our wounds.

i am also a September 2019 applicant (actually sent the application in last week of Aug 2019). Waited until April 2021 (18 months+) to write the tests, another 3 months to get to DM (in July 2021) and waiting since for Oath. Will be 7 months since writing the test soon.

every email I wrote to IRCC comes back with a message that I am in Queue.

isn’t a queue supposed to be First-in First-out?

I don't think they understand what queue means. They seem to be implementing a stack. It's a shame that IRCC treating applicants this unfairly. This is a reminiscent of how we were treated in the countries we immigrated from, but I have never been treated this badly in any country where I knew there was people with connections who got ahead of me and it was easy for them, but my applications didn't take very long anyway, and I was happy to take the longer but right way.

I think this is a reflection of how Canada looks at immigrants. I was profiled in multiple stores where security guards followed me around only because I wasn't white. I felt I was looked at as a criminal with suspicions. I know people who immigrated to Canada and treated badly that they were traumatized forever, and then went to another Western country to work, and felt more welcomed and embraced, and now want to settle there.

I was thinking if we immigrants could have a formal representation in Canada. It seems to me we are very weak and we cannot influence anything, and we are victims in many instances. A representation or maybe seeking legal action against this particular unfair selection of files. I am just putting these ideas out there.

I'm the Aug2019 applicant, still in process, endless waiting time. I retweeted, and will try to creat another account to retweet again. Wish God bless us--2019 applicants.

Welcome aboard, and thanks for retweeting. Hope they see the tweet and our frustration and do something.
 
Today I saw on a Facebook forum that a January 2021 applicant was scheduled for oath in November
Correct. Also, between March 2020 and December 2020 there was no progress at all, while they kept receiving 20,000 applications a month. They accumulated around 200,000. This was the first backlog. Then their slow processing has made the backlog to snowball over time. What do expect when each oath ceremony host 30-50 people, and it's done once or twice a week?

What they care about is what to do to show they are doing good? They ignored 2019 applications, and started with late applications, to meet their targets for 2020 and 2021, as you have guessed. We are mere numbers for their advantage only. We don't exist as humans to them.

Yes, I even saw Feb 2021 scheduled for oath. Normal processing not urgent. In less than 9 months they finished. I have been waiting for 24 months, and still haven't received the oath. Those who applied late 2019 and early 2020 were the very least lucky ones. Everything has played against us, the pandemic combined with IRCC incompetency and unfairness.
