January 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[Keyjoe23]

You need to choose option CBSA , when you request the notes not the IRCC , IRCC notes would not show security start date only note from CBSA ,

Do you choose Privacy Act or Access to Information Act (5$)?

Scheduled to attend ceremony on September 05, 2023.
SCR office took exactly 8 months to process my application from start to finish. Not bad!

Congrats. You get to know via email or online account gets updated first?

Only the tracker has been updated so far. I guess they’ll send invitation via email close to the oath date.

@rushi.gada, even though I have finished my process, I still check back here several times a week looking to see if your file has progressed. You are the most positive voice on this forum and I am so impressed at how encouraging and supportive you are of everyone here even though your file has taken longer than some of us. I just want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers (and I am sure many others on this forum).

Hey buddy! I really appreciate your kind words and thank you so much! Hopefully Aug is the month for me.
Ironically, 4 years ago, I had applied for our PR in Jan of 2019 and my CoPR came through in Aug 2019... Let's see if history repeats itself this time around

I had the same thought this morning! I am a Feb applicant - and find that Jan forum is the most active. Started following to get an idea of processing time, got my process completed but still come here to check how is it going here and also to get some positivity for my partner's application who is stuck after Test completion on May 26th

Thank you and I'm sure that your partners application would be done soon.

Congratulations... 8 months is not bad at all!

Received ATIP notes today. Security has not even started on my end. Criminality passed.

Passing Criminality is always a good sign. I know it feels like there is no light at the end of this IRCC tunnel, but believe in the process if you can. Once they get through your b/g, I'm sure they zip through everything else very quickly after. Stay optimistic and manifest the outcome you want by friend!

Hey, I applied for my GCMS notes on July 16th, still haven't received them. Wondering how long did they take to send you the notes?

My spouse's test was processed by Niagara Falls Office

I have a quick question, not sure if anyone knows. When an oath is scheduled are all the people invited to it from the same Visa office? Or people from all different offices?

I believe oaths are office specific and each office has its own schedule.

It could be random. But generally, from the same area. In my zoom ceremony (I am from Vancouver) we had people from Alberta and Manitoba (as they mentioned that they were in different time zone). The ceremony itself was from Burnaby, BC, as the honorable representative said.

I’m not really sure how to reply to two comments at the same time lol. @Dr. Walden and @kalebhushan thank you both for your replies. Just sitting here trying to decode the oath scheduling process. I think I need to find a hobby.
