How did you know that? I took my text on August 20th and still waiting. DM=22 August.

Well, they do have the lottery program where you get GC instantly!

They are just doing the job they are paid for as far as I'm concerned. In fact, they are still not as efficient as expected. They increased the fees exponentially and drastically, and yet immigrants waited and still waiting for very long time. If anyone deserves praise, it's the immigrants who...

It is astonishing you are complaining about getting your oath ceremony letter, even if it overlaps with your planned trip. Hundreds, if not thousands of people are anxiously waiting for that moment. Better be grateful, eh?

My test was on August 20th in Scarborough. Changed to DM on August 22nd. Officer asked me to wait for two months.

Go ahead with the lawyer, it will be the best 5K you ever spend. If he will file a 'writ of mandamus' case, then you will definitely win. I have many friends who were in your situation, as soon as they filed the suit, they got their citizenship within a month.

I know many people who used this lawyer service for similar case and were very successful: http://www.waldmanlaw.ca/team/krassina-kostadinov Good luck.

It certainly does work. I know at least 3 people who filed Mandamus case against CIC and got their citizenship application processed (successfully!) in a matter of days!

Yes, it was CIT 171. I didn't know there are more than one type! Can you please elaborate?

I beg to differ era1521. I personally know many people who posted everything and their application went very smooth.

I'd vote for: "he got a lazy citizenship officer, who simply sent out an RQ without reading the attached documents". It seems officers enjoy the upper hand and power they exploit against us, poor immigrants. ::)

I'm confident I met all requirements and my application is 110% complete, but I'm not confident CIC have the tendency to believe so. By default, every immigrant is considered a liar, and it takes ALOT of work, hurdles and hassle from the immigrant to prove otherwise. We've seen thousands of...

What I'm saying there is a crisis of confidence between CIC and immigrants. Regardless what the reasons are, they should not punish the majority of good law-abiding immigrants by the deeds of bunch of bad apples. Such delays caused by RQ is punishment as far as everybody is concerned. My...

I completed all the requirements including the 1095+ number of days residing in Canada, that's all what I can say

Local Office.

It was sent by the local office, does this make a difference?

I met (even exceeded) all my residence requirements.

Not really. It is just, and after seeing all the trouble, friends and family members went through with their applications, I thought it's a good idea to submit everything. CIC always assume that newcomers are liars (Btw, I'm sick of the excuce: It's because after the 2006 war in Lebanon bla bla...

I have two friends who applied through a renowned immigration lawyer, they did the same. Their application was processed in less than 6 months. So, I was acting according to the lawyer's advice.
