Hello All!
I have been a long time lurker in this forum and have used all your suggestions and trackers to apply for my citizenship application and am (from my own estimates) the first post C-6 Oct 11 applicant to get my citizenship.
Below is my timeline:
App Sent- Oct 12
App Rcvd- Oct 13
AOR- Oct 16
IP- Nov. 13
Test Invite- Dec 11
Test Date- Jan 11
Decision Made- Jan 11
Oath Invite-Jan 12
Oath Date-Jan 30
Citizenship complete(as per E-cas)- Jan 31
Applied for passport-Feb 1
Received passport- Feb 5 (asked and paid for expedited as I had a travel I needed to get to)
The reason for my urgent processing was due to a job opportunity within the Canadian federal government that required Canadian citizenship. In order to prove that I was eligible I provided the following:
1)Cover letter explaining my case
2)Letter from HR stating that Canadian citizenship is a requirement for the job.
3)Letter from Recruiter stating that Canadian citizenship is a requirement for the job.
4)Email print out from government website stating that Canadian citizenship is a requirement for the job.
I will try and answer any questions you may have regarding this
