Congratulations! Thank you for the update. :) Best of luck for the certificate and passport application

Indeed... Could it be Scarborough?

Yep, it's down for everyone... =/ daaaamn, less than 9 months to DM.... Definitely not jealous hehe Congrats. Are you with Surrey too then?

thanks! good to know :) I was starting to feel worried that something was happening. It frustrates so much how seemingly random oath invitations are (some people get invite within dates and for others it takes months). I cant seem to figure out the main factors influencing this. (Congrats on...

Something is weird with the trackers... If you look at 2020 and 2021 applicants, no one has an oath ceremony scheduled beyond 2 weeks from now. Like, seriously... no one. How come? I understand some applicants are invited weeks in advance and others are only given a few days notice. But I find...

I hope I am able to finish before I celebrate my application's 3rd bday hehe, (or before I have to renew my PR card). Something is weird with the trackers... If you look at 2020 and 2021 applicants, no one has an oath ceremony scheduled beyond 2 weeks from now. Like, seriously... no one. How...

I see... =/ i might be wrong, but it might need to be updated (I've heard applicants say that all checks need to be valid when you take your oath...)... but we'll see, I guess. Oh, that's good to know that ceremonies have applicants from both offices. :) Hopefully that reduces the differences...

Not much on my end.... I wrote an email to DNCITSRYCEREMONY@cic.gc.ca asking about my file. I had received a very weird request for travel evidence in Oct2021 and for 5 months i heard nothing, so when I got DM a few weeks ago, I honestly was not sure if the application had been approved or not...

No freaking way.... 7 weeks???? =( So disappointing on every front... At this point I feel we will always be considered "2nd class" citizens or something =/ Even in fiscal year 2020-2021 they managed to process over 80% of passport application withing service standards. Absolutely no excuse for...

Stupid physical presence.... This is why many countries require "years of residence" with a given number of absences permitted each year when processing citizenship requests. That way you are not counting the individual days and having to justify individual stamps or demonstrate that you have...

Woah... your application was moving super fast at the beginning!! I think it is possible that your prohibitions check expired a few weeks ago and has to be updated. This could explain a potential delay in your oath ceremony. But I agree that it should not be very long for you now. all the best

Yes, of course =/ I do not remember exactly where I read it, but they basically openly admitted that newer files (particularly those submitted online) were being processed at the same time as some of the older paper-based applications, "testing the new system" or something like that. Many...

I'm waiting too. Test completed Aug 02, 2021 Language and Prohibitions 22 Oct 2021 Physical presence and DM 21 Mar 2022 The new "official" processing time was 27 months for 80% of the applications over the past 6 months. However, I think that waiting for oath is not considered there since I...

I know... they stopped caring about us a long time ago. I was supposed to be in the first batch for taking the citizenship test online (IRCC said publicly they would start with applicants whose tests had been cancelled due to the pandemic), but of course they went with newer applicants first...

I am terribly sorry, and I understand all to well, unfortunately =( We are all just stats to them.... while pushing a narrative of an agency that 'cares'. I am so looking forward to being done with IRCC and not having to deal with them ever again (except for passports.....) . Have you tried...

Hi, Does anyone have information of how they prioritize people for scheduling? Do they look mostly at 1) Application date 2) Test date 3) DM date?? (maybe spinning a giant wheel to randomly choose applicants? so many of their choices seem to be made that way...) in any case I'm way overdue...

My file was originally being processed in MTL, but then I moved to Vancouver and the file was transferred to the Surrey office after I took my test. Sure, I can share info on the quote. Normally for taking care of a citizenship file and doing this, they would charge around $3500. However...

Thank you. I sincerely appreciate all your support over the past months. :) Also, I just realized that you had your oath in January. Congrats! Hope all is going well in MTL

My file was stuck in the physical presence verification since some of my trips were not properly logged with CBSA. The lawyer said that moving forward, we would need to prepare a solid file to prove I was here for the minimum 1095 days. This would have been beyond simple flight itineraries, and...

I talked to a lawyer today about my options moving forward (nearly 8 months after test, and 5 months since sending the supplementary evidence requested).... They do believe my application has fallen into a weird black hole and that it might require more than just webforms to get action on it...
