    CIT 0520 after interview

    Finally!! Congrats! Unfortunately it seems that the new tracker (since October 7) has not been very reliable, but glad the email got to you fine. Which office did it come from?

    June 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

    It's very likely that you will get your oath invite any day now, but yes, unfortunately there is a small chance that you might be delayed again like I was. It's really unfair how 2022 paper applicants have been completing the process in 3-6 months, while many of the rest of us have waited much...

    Yeah it seems that the spreadsheet for June 2021 has not been updated since at least September

    Congrats! Wow, that is amazing. Glad that passport processing has caught up on all the backlog and become efficient. You didn't request expedited service?

    The vast majority of people receive the oath invite in less than a month, but a very small but growing minority takes longer, sometimes a few months.

    I did receive what I was waiting for - almost 2 weeks later than expected! Canada Post is being too slow these days.

    Sorry to hear. That is very delayed, but unfortunately not unusual for Ottawa, which is the slowest office. Have you ordered GCMS notes or emailed Ottawa (by replying to the test invite email)?

    June 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

    Congrats! When was it postmarked? I received mine 7 days after the postmark date. I've been waiting for something unrelated to arrive in the mail for over a week now and wondering if I'm the only one suffering unusually long mail delivery times recently, or if everyone has been delayed due to...

    Congrats!! Glad your oath finally got scheduled. I still wonder why a few of us get very delayed in getting oath invite when almost everyone else gets it within a month after everything else completed. I was very frustrated and depressed even though my wait was nothing compared to yours.

    Canadian Passport in person timeline

    Applications submitted since mid to late October have experienced normal processing times, i.e., 2-4 weeks for regular service applied for at Service Canada without proof of travel.

    Finally! Congrats to both of you who I know have been waiting forever. Hope the rest of the process goes quickly for you both

    Niagara Falls IRCC Office - Join this thread

    Niagara Falls does seem to do the oaths of the vast majority of applicants in Ontario and outside the GTA. It also processes many of the applications of those who live in Ontario but outside the GTA and near slow, backlogged offices (most notably Ottawa and London).

    June 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

    Actually people who applied for passports from mid-October onward have been receiving them in 2 weeks to a month, without expedited service. The disastrous conditions were back in the summer, when people were applying for passports in droves to take summer vacations. Once people finished their...

    Kitchener Waterloo Citizenship Applicants

    Yes. Unpaid medical bills can run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for hospital stays and are THE #1 reason for personal bankruptcy in the US.

    Yes, hundreds of dollars per month. One of the reasons I came to Canada.

    Kitchener Waterloo Citizenship Applicants

    A few offices, such as Scarborough, Mississauga, and Montreal, have been having more and more in-person ceremonies. But yes, most are still virtual over zoom.

    June 2021 - Citizenship Applicants

    Yes, finally I received my passport exactly 2 weeks ago - a little more than 2 months after applying in person at Service Canada, and a little more than 17 months after submitting the citizenship application! I knew the process would likely be slow, but really wasn't prepared for the unusually...

    Congrats!! I was also impressed by how smoothly things went at my Niagara Falls oath in September.
