Sorry guys nothing on my side either, I agree with you a.R, I am disappointed with how things are going at Calgary CIC office. I called a few times in the past few weeks and every time they tell me something different. one time they told me to call them back if I didnt hear anything by August...

I called CIC today and asked whether or not I was sent a letter since my file was transferred in Dec 2014. The agent checked my file status and came back saying that they haven't sent me anything yet but everything looks good and I should be scheduled for test before Aug 21, 2014 as per her...

I am worried because I have been on this forum for so long and very few people got a citizenship invitation, I have been monitoring updates of all the people that applied from Calgary for over 4 months, and all I could see is mostly invitation to applications processing in Jan 2013 or before...

I dont know if that represents the average though, if I consider Canadiancoops timeline as an average then I shouldn't expect a test before November 2014 which I don't think reflects a normal processing timeline, that's just my thinking though.

yes a.R I hope so too, but does anyone have information on how long the process takes in Calgary from start to finish on average??

Does anyone know from a friend at least how long the citizenship application process takes in Calgary? as in from start to finish? I need some kind of average wait time so that I know when to start to worry. I was told by CIC agent to call them back on October 29, 2014 if I didn't get a test...

Apparently not all government employees in Dubai react the same regarding this issue, my sister in law in Dubai tried to get this entry/exit report for us but she was told that she needs a power of attorney to do that. on the other hand, I have a friend who was able to get the report from Dubai...

Its sad to see there is virtually no progress with any of the applications on the spreadsheet, there is no movement at all it seems!!

@a.R Thank you for taking the time to create this spreadsheet, its very useful and is going to help everyone but I have two comments about it and I hope you agree with me: 1. I think it would be good to add a note on top to encourage people who are viewing it to add their timelines as I have...

I think logically they will go by transfer date which explains why some people on other sites who applied in May 2013 have been invited to test and others who have applied in 2012 are still waiting. But again who knows what they do, I was under the impression that they will speed up the...

Nope not yet, as per my observation it looks like they are sending test invitations to the applicants who's files were transferred in October 2013. Mine was transferred in December 2013 so maybe in a month or two Ill hear from them.

@BZ mom you need to call CIC call centre to find out, it doesn't show up on ECAS

Although there is another thread for Calgary called Normal Processing Time Calgary office but I will post my timeline here too. Applied April 29, 2013 In process July 9, 2013 Transferred to local office Dec 18, 2013 (Calgary) Called CIC yesterday they told me that since I didn't get an RQ I...

@ armaan Did you show the UAE exit/entry report or the cancellation document of your visa to the CIC officer?

@dineshabe I was looking at other forums and someone posted that they wrote the test last week and their file was transferred to Calgary office on Aug 29, 2013. So if CIC Calgary is consistent they should be inviting to the test people with applications transferred to local office in September...

it was a friend of mine who had the interview and it was in Mississauga, btw this is not the only case Im aware of that had similar issues with UAE visa

Anyone who has a UAE residence in their passport should get an entry/exit report from UAE if you don't want to risk an RQ especially when applying from the GTA (Mississauga for sure) and I say that because I have a friend who cancelled his residency in Dubai before landing in 2009 and never left...

From what I have seen on different forums is that people who moved to Ontario have been getting RQ's for some reason, I am assuming because local CIC office can't do a background check when you claim that you were living in a different province. It is definitely going to process faster in...

@AlexRox Whats your timeline? are applying from Calgary too?

Applications that started processing in January 2013 sorry.
