Today I received my old application in my mailbox with a letter asking me to pay the balance and resubmit.
I already did that 4 days ago and the new application was delivered to CIC at 13 February.

Kelshaer,

Thanks for the update. I guess I'll wait a couple of weeks before sending a new application.

By the way. The application form also changed in February. Which application form did you fill out in your original application?

Hi Iftikhar123,

I am in the same situation. I am sending them today. I did not use the new forms as I already have everything done before they changed the forms. I have asked the Multicultural centre that helped me and they said that they will still accept the old one. We will see.

I would like to join this thread.

Application for Canadian Citizenship - Adult

Application rcvd by Sydney ofc: February 3, 2014 (as per Cda Post tracking)

I have not yet received an AoR and hopefully I made it to the applications received before February 6 (when the new citizenship law took effect). I was thinking they did receive my application on the Feb 3rd but for sure they did not open right away. I'm just hoping for the best at this point.

Hi,

My application (with old form + new fees) was received by CIC Sydney on the 13 Feb. I have not received the AOR still. Anyone with the similar time limit? usually how long it will take to get an AOR. I am from Toronto.

I am Exactly the same timeline (Delivered 13 Feb). I think the AOR takes around 3 months.

Hello everyone,

I'm getting ready to apply next week (woot woot March 2014 applicants! :D) I just wanted to say thank you to you guys for mentioning the updated forms. I'd filled out the old ones and would not have known about the new forms if it weren't for you kind folks. I'm a huge fan of this forum, having been a participant during the PR process. I know I'll be on here a lot once my application goes in :) Here's wishing all of us the best of luck!
