    January 2023 - Citizenship Applications

    I have copied my message below - the one I sent to CBSA when requesting GCMS notes. And to your second question - I still have not heard back from them. "I am writing to request my CBSA-GCMS notes. I have applied for the citizenship grant, but the processing of my application has been...

    Sorry to hear about your grandparent's cancer diagnosis. I hope you get your citizenship and passport soon and are able to visit and spend time with her.

    I have no clue how but I think I pressed some right buttons in the last couple of weeks - I received an invitation for taking Oath. Over the past couple of weeks, I contacted my MP for the third time to follow up with IRCC. I also called the IRCC helpdesk and asked them for a reasonable...

    A friend recently shared his cousin's experience with IRCC. After submitting citizenship grant application, he waited for eight months without receiving any updates. Frustrated, he contacted IRCC to inquire about the delay. By the 11th month, after involving his MP, he finally received an...

    Received a copy of my GCMS notes, there's no change. Notes are all the same since February. Very very disappointing. I had to present my research papers at a conference in the US in August. I could not get the visa, have been raising expedition requests since February through all possible...

    Same here, my background check and security clearance are done - only LPP is left. An IRCC rep I spoke over the phone a couple of weeks back was baffled to learn that our family's background check and security clearance was done back in October, and since then there hasn't been any progress at...

    I completely agree with you, but on the other hand, if eventually this is the only feasible solution, why wait any further. There are applicants from 2022 July who waited all these years and now they have decided to go with mandamus. No matter how unfair, but if this is the route we will...

    I will perhaps go with the Writ of Mandamus if things remain the same after a couple of months. It seems to be the only workable solution with the kind of delays we are facing, but the cost of getting it done through a good law office is significant.

    It was speculated in the blog that PhD has a lot to do with the delay.. I don't see a connection between these two, but perhaps there is one, and its just that we cannot understand it..

    Jesus!!!!! Btw, I was reading a blog the other day and the author was trying to imply that education and nationality of the citizenship applicant play a huge part in processing delay. Could we perhaps share our education and nationalities here to see if there is something common in our profile...

    Received response from MP office today. "I spoke with our IRCC agent, who advised the application status is the same as the previous update. She confirmed that IRCC received urgent webform request. Our agent stressed the August deadline. While there are no guarantees the applications will...

    Yup, I guess they were tired of sending out GCMS notes so they made requesting a bit more difficult to avoid more requests altogether..
