June 2024 - Citizenship Applications

[tuhadapeo]

Congrats man, gives us hope

Can I ask if they ever request passport copies, had an interview with you? Did you submit anything related to physical presence with your application?

Nevermind I read your other post. What about PCC did you provide FBI PCC? @maverick1982

I had provided pcc in letter of explanation. In the past 4 years I have not continuously lived in US for 6 months. But when I moved to Canada in last 4 years, the date I moved I had lived 6 months if we count time before the 4 year mark. So I provided it. I think the real issue comes if you moved less than 3.5 years back. In that case ircc has no way of knowing if you were in US or started staying in another country. With too much travel it is natural they want to double check , specially if you don't give buffer days. I strongly suggest atleast 30 day buffer. Unless one has never left canada after moving. Then it doesn't matter but still a few days won't hurt.

Just received our Oath Ceremony Invite for Oct 9, tracker still says Not Started, possibly Monday it will be updated.

Congratulations. Thats just 5 days away. Usually I see that it is week or more away . I suppose sooner the better!

I see. Thank you. What’s your processing office?

Usually the office is the one that invites for test. So atleast initially your office was scr. They do change offices to load balance . So it's likely that Vancouver is the office currently processing. Maybe till lpp is complete. Then it comes back to original office for oath.ill let more experienced people pitch in. How long did it take for your spouses test to mark complete? And did fp request come after it was marked complete?.

Thanks Again.

My BG was marked complete before I got the invite.
His BG is still in progress and his test was marked as complete in less than a week and the FP request was after the test was marked as complete.

Then very likely the processing office is Vancouver and they are slow in updating test results. Very likely they will get to it next week. Wait till middle of next week or even till the end and then call them . Hopefully your file moves soon.

Are you waiting on LPP?

I am waiting for just Prohibitions and my spouse is waiting for LPP. With Vancouver as the office, they take forever to complete each step

 

[hssrp]

Lol sorry. But there is light at end of tunnel!. Just a little more delay that's all. Im sure yours will be dobe soon. When I applied for PR my file went to the slowest office. I can understand the frustration. But it did process eventually. Once it was done I thought, why did I worry , it's just a matter of time. But it's human nature. We go back to worrying again even if there is slight delay. I think we are used to getting conveniences quickly in the West. In India I used to be little more patient and more mentally strong.

Yup, I am totally fine, thank you . It is what is it and we can't do anything about it, so no points being sad or frustrated. Just hope my officer finally wakes up and completes my Prohibitions and my spouse's LPP soon

Agree. Let's hope Vancouver picks up speed for everyone.
