ATIP Message: "Citizenship Interview"

[Newbie2014]

I noticed the following entry under the "Events" section of my ATIP file:

Created Date: 2013/12/15
Created By: .....
Updated Date: 2013/12/15
Updated By: ....
Event Type: Citizenship Interview
Event Local Time: 2014/07/01 00:00
Status: Correspondence Sent


I wondered what it meant, and so I took a look around the different immigration forums.

(1) Forum user stoneFlake received a similar message and date in their ATIP file: https://secure.immigration.ca/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11303&PN=12&title=understanding-atip-reports

(2) Forum user Optimism received a similar message and date in their ATIP file:
https://secure.immigration.ca/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11303&PN=15&title=understanding-atip-reports


Does anyone know what this CIC message means? Why do the ATIP files state that citizenship interviews will be held on 7/1/2014? Is it a mistake?

:

Unless I'm mistaken, that probably means that they sent you correspondence to attend the interview on that date. Did you check your eCas?

Yes, that's what I thought at first. But there's been no eCas information. And it appears to be a common message in other people's ATIP files, which got me thinking that it is an error?

This is an internal reminder for CIC that you are in line for the test and interview and that it "should" happen by July 1. My guess is that this is a computer system work-around make by CIC to prioritize your application to be among the big push in advance of the new citizenship bill and Canada Day. (The CIC has already processed 100,000 apps in 2014, which is almost double the 2013 rate).

The created date and the correspondence refers to the CIT 0521. You won't be sitting for your test at midnight on Canada Day.

Like many others I had this on my ATIP as well. I was scheduled for the test at the end of February and Oath at the end of May. Not everyone who has this status will be scheduled for a test before Canada Day. There's too many unknowns and luck with the CIC process to predict exactly, but taken in concert with the rest of your ATIP, it could indicate that your test will be soon.

Good luck.

Thank you,eileen -- I greatly appreciate your input.

I guess, then, it is just a default message? I am still waiting on my RQ to be assessed. When I saw the message regarding an appointment with a citizenship judge in my ATIP file, my hope rose that there was now a light at the end of the tunnel and this long process would soon end. But I guess not.

Hi I applied for ATIP request on Jun 5th after 6 pm or so, I got an email mentioning as follows. I do not get any email thereafter.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now my question is, based on the above sentence in bold letters, -- "After your request has been registered, a new number will be assigned to your request"
how would I know whether my request is complete and has been registered and a new number is assigned? Should I contact them by email to clarify my doubt?

Please do reply me by someone who has requested the ATIP -- access to privacy act and got response already.
