June 2023 - Citizenship Applications

[ishpiringkiting]

Congratulations !!! Someone in the thread earlier mentioned that folks who did their tests in early August might start getting oaths for September. So hopefully, we see more and more people with good updates.

I'll be waiting a while longer because they requested fingerprints and I did my test in late August

Oh, that sounds nice! Hoping that would be true because we had our exam done last August 19, and as of August 30, all areas in our tracker are completed and it’s just the citizenship ceremony that’s not started.

My wife and I both gave the fingerprints for background verification on the same day (19th Aug). My tracker is showing fingerprints received 4th Sep and Background Verification completed on 5th Sep. Whereas, on on wife’s tracker, it is still showing waiting for fingerprints. Is it normal? Should not they process both applications at same time?
