I think there are many teams processing the applications. Basically the system doesn't make difference based on the look of your face, but some officers just seem to push applicants that look the same with him/her first. Of course every application is unique on it's own, but one guy here, I...
My friend, you have been waiting for over 4.5 years, not 3 years. Something must be very fishy about your application. IMO, since the CJ promised you 60 days, wait for one more week, and call the CJ's office to find out.
Bro, don't mind I ask you a question, what is your country of origin : South Asia, East Asia, SE Asia, Eastern Europe and Russia, EU, Latin America, Africa?
3 months after test is still considered normal for Vancouver office. This week they sent out some letter, but looks like the mails haven't reached the mail boxes (delayed). Let's see early next week if you can get your oath letter.
Average oath after test is 3 months in Vancouver. Some people...
The judge must be a construction worker being appointed randomly. Basically you cannot ask any country to make a statement regarding your personal issue with other country. Even 3rd world country won't do it, let alone USA.
I'm trying to figure this out. Maybe for some officers, they don't care about your country of origin. But for some, it matters. Especially in Vancouver. So it really depends on who is processing your application. Remember, conservative is the boss now.
Sorry my friend, one more question. I'm just trying to figure out if country of origin plays a role in processing time.
Is Russia part of eastern Europe?
There is something fishy in this processing time. The 24 months time line has been there for few years, included when processing time was one of the longest in history. The currently stated from October 2013 to October 2014, also 24 months. It is a public knowledge that since February 2014, many...
IMO, the root of the problem in citizenship application is lack of transparency. For example, how could CIC states in their website that processing time is 24 months while there are many people getting it in less than 6 months. This 18 months difference will turn things into wild-opinion-game...
Then I'm wrong.
How bout your interview, was there any concern about stamp or residency stuff? Also your spouse, because that would delay both.
And..... ;D Did CIC collect your DNA sample during the interview. Maybe they are running some DNA check, so it took them so long.
I read about mandamus file from the website, your story is similar to a guy who filed a mandamus. CIC didn't tell him anything about the wait, but then in court, it was being explained that the wait was due to the applicant being investigated by RCMP on CIC request. They found out that he was...
Was there something fishy with your application? For example :
- You didn't have 1,095 days when applying.
- You are a refugee that went back to your home country.
- You had a problem with police, being convicted with felony, etc.
- You were applying under a lawyer that was being investigated or...
There is no point to order that at this moment, and also totally useless to call CIC. Just wait. Most of the time, you would get something (between the 3 that I mentioned) in less than 2 weeks. If you often traveled, you should start to order CBSA report now. Btw, test invitation won't be sent...
