March 2015 Citizenship Applicants

[WindsorFeb15Aspirant]

My wife and I attended the test on Sep 3rd and both passed the test. Online status changed to Decision Made.

I passed the test in Aug 13th (25 days so far). No "Decision made" yet. Not sure what the problem is ???

London office?!

I wrote the test on Aug 13 as well but the updated i.e. Decision Made status appeared on Aug 15 in my case.

How did your interview go? Did the case officer say that the office may request more documents such as the request to submit the fingerprint report or additional clarification in regards to your stay here in Canada?!

If not, did the official say anything about the oath ceremony?

A bit insight into what the office said may help to evaluate your situation.

No, everything went smooth. We even gave her a color copy of our passports, with the visas translated, and travel records from both the Canadian and the US sides !! Our applications include full school records for our kids from the day we entered Canada, and full university records for ourselves (both were PhD students for most of this period).

Most probably it is not a residency issue. Maybe they needed additional security checks due to our ethnic and religious background. Who knows.

I am assuming you are from a Muslim country but regardless of your origin, you should expect a fair and unbiased processing of your application. I can assure you that you and your family's Islamic origin is not a factor that is delaying the outcome of your petition.

Your are experiencing delays because your application involves screening of not just yourself but your family as well. They will have to make decisions on each of your family member and as a result of that, your application has not advanced to the Decision Made stage yet.

Based on what you've said, you have nothing to be concerned about. In due time, they will update your status.

Cheers

Thanks

Arvind,

Do the online tests several times. Google citizenship test (your province). Pls do NOT forget to read the book and understand each and every para that you read. Read the book atleast 3 times.

Best of luck.
