    June 2019 citizenship applicants

    My interview was online. It took about 10 minutes. The agent asked to verify my identity with a few IDs then asked me a question about a date in my passport as I had made a mistake on my calculator. Once she was clear as to the mistake (and made small talk to make sure I speak English or...

    Writ of Mandamus

    Thanks for the tip! I have been calling around about it to a few law firms and I am getting the same range of fees. Some say not to go through it at all because IRCC will claim Covid-19 as a crutch; but I have seen online that a judge granted it to an applicant while maintaining that other...

    October 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

    I think that is a great idea. However, you have to have someone who has a way with words and the technical background to write up the petition "prayer".

    Writ of Mandamus

    Has anyone utilized the Writ of Mandamus to get a decision on their application? I understand there are requirements to be eligible, just wondering if anyone went through with it. Did you go through a lawyer or do it yourself?

    London, ontario citizen applicants

    It generally looks like once all the categories are updated to complete then the application moves to the oath queue and hopefully between DM and oath scheduled is not too long. Anyone else waiting after test for any changes? June 2019 applicant, test passed June 2021, no updates since.

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

    Honestly, I didn't keep up with the PR application updates because I have a citizenship application in process and thought that the PR application would take months, if not years. I checked my mail one day and there the card was, then I check my application status and those are the dates that I...

    London, ontario citizen applicants

    Same boat here - I spoke with the MP's office and they said they're holding an oath ceremony on July 1st for a lot of London applicants and he gave me some hope but still haven't heard from them.

    August 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

    My thinking is that we're way beyond complaining to IRCC through webforms, calls, even requesting notes. I think we have to escalate to a higher governing body that keeps IRCC in check.

    August 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

    You're right, I think if we had regular updates and possible (even ranges) timelines, everyone would ease up a bit. The stress is justly present in a major way due to the fact that we don't know what we're waiting for and we don't know when it will end. I've personally had my life on hold ever...

    Does anyone know if you can travel after getting the citizenship certificate and apply for a passport for the first time in a Canadian embassy abroad?

    IRCC dashboard. Why is not Citizenship Ceremony "In Progress" since the citizenship test was done

    Pretty much in the same boat, but my BG is complete and the oath ceremony is still "not started".
