That’s very interesting. When I applied for PR, I had two items pending until the moment I arrived in Canada when an immigration officer interviewed me, took my picture for my PR card, and stamped my passport. A day later when I logged into my account, everything was shown as completed.
Are you coming in as PR or something else? There’s nothing in your tracker showing as pending at all? Usually passport request is shown in the tracker if coming as a PR
Got conditional approval for nexus. Does anyone have any idea if the sweetgrass, Montana crossing is a joint interview with a CBSA and CBP officer? Or does one need to stop at CBSA in coutts first from the appointment made on TTS and then travel across the border into sweetgrass to be...
Finally a Canadian citizen after 1,570 days in Canada and a total of 1 year 4 months for citizenship application processing without any flaws or errors on original application.
So I got an update to my application for citizenship on may 25. All the criteria they have on my application is set to “completed” except Citizenship Ceremony which is set to “not started”. It’s been in this status since may 25 to today.
from other applicants, how long does it take to get a...
Applied for Canadian citizenship April 2021. Received AOR letter in June 2021. Radio silence until October 2021 when they requested fingerprints from me. Went to local police to have them done. It was received by CIC in November 2021 and background status set to completed. Radio silence again...
it usually takes about 2-3 months provided they don’t request anymore documents. This was pre-COVID. With COVID it may take a little longer depending on the circumstances and local restrictions in Manila.
Thank you for sharing your experiences regarding fp. I’m getting it done today. Already 7 months in the process. Hopefully next thing will be an invite to take my test and all other steps to follow afterwards.
I thought so as well but I just find it weird my friend wasn’t required to have fp done during the PR process and the citizenship. Yeah so far it’s 6 months in the process. Hope to have news soon when the test is offered

FP request from Vancouver CIC October 19, 2021
application location: Alberta.
I received a finger print request by email from Vancouver CIC. A friend of mine applied for citizenship a year before I did and never received anything for finger request and is in progress to path taking.
Is there a reason why I would get a request and my friend didn’t? I have not been...
Thank you guys for your reply to my thread. Just wanted to make sure of this so there wouldn’t be any sort of processing delays or otherwise. From what I’ve seen on CIC’s website they are very behind on processing applications as is.
Hello,
I've applied for Canadian citizenship and received an acknowledgement of receipt 3 months after sending my application in.
I realized while applying my passport still had a validity of 9 months. It's now down to 6 months and have applied for a new passport from my country of origin...
Hello,
I received a letter recently from the CRA requesting my wife's world income for 2016, 2017, and 2018 for the Alberta Climate change program and for the GST/HST benefit. We got married outside of Canada in 2016 but CIC didn't approve our application until February 2018. She landed in...
My wife landed in Vancouver back in March 2018. Although her plane landed at 11:55am, she didn't come out of the customs hall until 4:15pm. The connecting flight we had was scheduled for 4 hours out which wasn't enough. If I kept the 4 hour window, we would have missed our connecting flight...
