    Just in: New 4/6 rule in force as of JUNE 11, 2015

    I just hope they don't start to be inhumanly picky about the last applications before the cut-off date. We are all humans we we all make minors mistakes like forgetting to put "N/A" in some boxes and stuff. I really hope (and expect) that they give a very human treatment to those applications.

    By the way, we should expect some AORs from May applicants starting monday, right?

    That's the one million dollar question, my friend.

    As a very politicized man, I feel it is very difficult to live in a place that I cannot chose my representatives. Voting is one of the most important activities a person can have in its community. I am not kidding, it practically hurts that I cannot vote here (so far). Not voting really upsets...

    Hi dpenabill, So... according to your guess, you think there will be a lot more scrutiny for those applicants that barely make the required physical presence or for everybody on that period? Let me use myself as an example. My application was received and signed by CIC on May 27 (no AOR yet)...

    Tracking June 2015 Citizenship Application - Please Share your Timeline

    I am no expert on this. I will just give my opinion based on my own impression of the situation. I think that sending another application (corrected) will just confuse all the process. Worst case scenario you might have a duplicated entry... and be considered as fraud. Calling them might be...

    Good. So I can assume that if I get the AOR my application will not return anymore, right? Worst case scenario I will get the RQ?

    question about "intent to reside" in c-24

    Precisely. Not to mention the fact that you can only answer for your present intentions. One's intentions today might not be the one's intentions tomorrow... or after the oath for that matter. Imagine you are in court because you left Canada end the judge tells you: - But you signed an statement...

    Question: When the application is returned because of lack of documents... is it returned before or after the AOR?

    I think you are more or less correct. The mid-june hotspot is a guess. A educated guess, but still a guess. It's basically a prediction based on the previous behavior for those matters. But what the heck do we know? As far as I know the law could be enforced only in January 2016... or tomorrow.

    That has never been more true, my friend.

    I agree with that part. There is no telling how much this process can keep changing along the years. For better or worse.

    I understand and I agree. However for a lot of people it is not a matter of spending just once in a lifetime. It is a matter of simply not having this amount of money available.

    I think you can make it. There are several courier options and several of them offers a extremely fast delivery. And of course, there's always the hope that the law will be enforced in July, but not exactly July the 1st.

    It doesn't sound reliable at all. But than again... nothing does. I really like the input from several sources, because it allow us to discuss the matter. But at the end, we really need an official source to declare something concrete to us. And we are still waiting...

    Well... yes... but at the same time let's remember that the fee increased astronomically since January. So we have two forces acting there: 1 - People trying to beat C-24. 2 - A HUGE increase of the fee since January. So I guess the end result is not that many more applications than normal. I...

    Hello there, and welcome. Just out of curiosity, what was the language proof that you sent in February and was rejected? I just took a look at the April's applicants tracker and the April 24 applicants are getting their AORs right now. So... if logic follows with CIC, you should receive yours...

    All right. My applications was received and signed at May 27. So if it is not returned (as per @Politren's answer) I should be safe and sound under the old law. Thank you both very much.
