Still AOR status. I received AOR on Feb 16th , so two months now and no update
That is a bit long and uncharacteristic of the London office. Average since September is less than 40 days. Interesting. And no, I have no idea what it could mean.

Its just due to huge applications they are receiving. No matter which location all files are received at Sydney, so it's just the transfer.
Once the file gets transferred I a hoping everything will be smooth
Like Quink said they will get to it when they have to.

Quick q...

Did you guys only find out about your test date from a letter being sent in the mail? Did you not receive an email or update in your CiC account with a test date?
I'm about to apply from overseas where I'm currently based for work and I don't have an address in Canada at the moment. I intend to fly back for the test if necessary.

Thanks!

Hi Qureshi,
I was trying to speak with an agent at IRCC for last 2 to 3 days but everytime got the message they are busy and could not get thru since I used to call at noon. Today I made a call in the morning, was put on a queue for around 35 minutes and finally got a agent who confirmed my FP is received. I did not ask anymore details as I know this process will take total 12 months.
If you don't mind sharing, where did you do the fingerprints ??

Hey Guys, i am a January applicant. I hope someone can guide me on my issue.

We requested a name change on my wife's citizenship application, basically just changing her surname after our wedding. The instructions on the application only asked for a Marriage Certificate in case only surname is changed after Wedding. We attached a Marriage certificate, but now we received a letter from CIC asking for One piece of ID from Canada with the new Name and foreign passport with the new name. BOTH documents displaying the new name.

We have 60 days to reply, and I have two options.

1. Legally change the name in passport and Drivers License (both have a processing time at least 8 weeks or more)
2. Ask CIC to not do a name change right now.

Do you think they will accept my request to not do a name change right now, or will they ask me to send another application. I tried calling them but was on hold for a very long time, will try again tomorrow.

I have a question.
My application went into process on March 27. I just checked on my ecas and the 4 the line say. " We sent you a correspondence on May 1st, plze wait until you receive...." Is this a test invite? I hope not as i didn't even practice the book. I don't think it's a FP request because in the last four yrs I was only away for 154 days.

I got the same thing. Am wondering what the letter would say. Could it be a test invite?
