London, ontario citizen applicants

[ravidgohil@gmail.com]

I am going to apply for citizenship in a week or two and a question that confuses me...

SHOULD I APPLY ONLINE OR PAPER? - Heard that online seems to take forever...

Thanks in advance!

It really depends on your preference. Paper applicantions appear to be processed faster for now, but that can change anytime!! IMO, I’d go for online application, quicker, easier and less paperwork.

It means that another fingerprints request is due now. Fingerprints are requested so that IRCC can get a criminality clearance from RCMP. Criminality clearance is valid only for 1 year. So, your husband's criminality clearance would have expired in December 2020. Now, they'll likely need another set of fingerprints to get a new criminality clearance from RCMP.

Anyone who had their citizenship ceremony on 17th August had their status changed to complete on website yet?

I called my MP from Oxford county last Friday and they said "we do not help expedite anything related to immigration". I have read some MPs from other ridings were able to help but not ours.

I completed test on April 21. No updates after that as usual. London IRCC is the worst. All my London friends who applied in March 2020 got their oath done last week. I and some of my friends who applied in 2019 and are still waiting. Seriously the worst office.

We know a lot of people from 2020 who already got their passports and 2019 are stuck
Can we do something about it maybe gather and sign a petition or something
