Hi,

I sent my application 14 months ago and back then I was living in Ottawa. I moved to Toronto 8 months ago and I did let CIC know about my address change. However, when I called them last week, I was informed that my application has been transferred to Ottawa. They placed a notice on my application to transfer if from Ottawa to Toronto. Has any body here experienced such event? Do you know how long would it take to transfer to Toronto?

Cheers,

I have the same problem. I moved to Mississauga however, my file is transferred to Ottawa. CIC call center told me that it may take 2-3 months to transfer the file.

Good luck with the wait time. When did you apply? Would you please share your timeline?

Cheers.

If I were in your shoes I would call to CIC and ask them to transfer the file. The sooner the better.

Good luck.
