I am from Georgetown which is quite close to Oakville and I am being processed in Kitchener. I learned from this forum that you can just call and ask them where you are being processed :) Alternatively, ordering your GCMS notes will tell you where you are being processed.

I think I have heard that you need to bring originals of all the supporting documents you submitted with your application.

For any Kitchener/Guelph/Waterloo folks out there, I am a December 2018 applicant and got my GCMS notes today. Everything says "not started" (knowledge, residence, language, parentage, adoption, armed forces, prohibition, security, waiver, misrepresentation, hearing and oath). Only exception...

Hi there, Here is the "official" KW/Waterloo thread :) https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/kitchener-local-office-after-bill-c6.530751/page-52

Ah! Well, lets keep fingers crossed everything keeps on trucking along and we get our test invites soon! :)

From what I understand, 12 months is the average waiting time.

Hi there, My timeline is very similar to yours and am also being processed in Kitchener. If you don't mind me asking, how were you able to figure out that they are currently processing July 2018 applicants and that they are understaffed? Did you speak to someone at the CIC office?

My app was received in Dec 2018 and processing in Kitchener. Still waiting patiently for a test invite :)

One thing to keep in mind is that it appears you need to let IRCC know if you plan to leave for more than two weeks in a row after you apply for citizenship...

Best of luck!

I did :/ Yeah, looking back I probably should have sent copies for sure and kept the originals. I was just worried because my transcript came in a sealed envelope that said "not official if this seal is broken", so I just sent the unopened envelope with my application.

Just the general helpline - 1888-242-2100

Thank you! I called today and found out my processing location is Kitchener, not sure if that is an important change to make to the spreadsheet or not, but thought I would let you know :)

It went really well, thanks! Don't know why I was so nervous, the agent was super nice. She told me my application is being processed in Kitchener :)

On this topic - for my English language proof I ordered original transcripts from the university I attended. Guessing I would need to make sure I re-order another copy before the test in order for them to arrive on time? :/ Good to know!

Thanks for the advice. I always get a bit of anxiety calling them, but I will give it a go.

Hi there, Apologies if the answer to this question has already been discussed elsewhere. My citizenship application has been in process since early March and I live in Georgetown, Ontario. I was just wondering if there is a way to figure out which office my application is being processed at...

Yes, of course! App. type: Single Number of days in Canada: 1743 Date application was sent: December 12, 2018 Date application was received: December 13, 2018
