No, they will process the application and they will call you tattoo a citizenship log anywhere you want :) Jokes apart, the final processing will lead to test which will lead to oath which will lead to issue of certificate. If they send a "Residency Questionnaire", "Fingerprint Request" or...

Congrats. So you were right in your timeline :)

PR applications only entail criminal checks unless they are sent for secondary review. In secondary review they carry out both "Criminal" and "Vulnerability Checks". As biometrics kick in, all applications will start going through both type of checks. It seems that your Citizenship application...

Here are some more observations for those are interested and glued to the processing timeline biting their nails :) a) The longest time period in 2018 between application received and AOR issued was 202 days in October 2017 due to the surge in applications. In the best case, this is the...

The best thing to do is to call the Call Centre and ask them to make a note on your file that you are sending a copy of new passport. Then, mail a copy of the new passport with a simple explanation in a cover letter. I do not think new forms are required.

Passport is 20 days from the date of application after you get your Citizenship Grant. If you meant first time Citizenship grant, it looks like this year it will be close to 7-8 months on an average given the recent delays in AOR and commencement of processing.

Lol :) I will not say I am thorough, I am a data science buff and have tools to easily extract information from tables or excel sheets quickly and then analyze them for patterns using "R", a data analysis software. The patterns clearly tell a story when combined with reading the news cycle. Here...
