Hi, May I know the rationale behind sending your applications separately? Is there any advantage? Just curious. Thanks.

Just wondering but once everything is processed and i am invited for a test, am i allowed to defer a test to a later time. I ask because I will be starting university in September and my program is pretty tough, so I wouldnt have much time to do the test until school breaks

Would advise to take the test when you get it... the test is so easy and no stress..you can differ but will take forever to get another date.

Hi All,
Hope everyone is keeping up safe and healthy.

Anyone has any idea in relation to below question?

Does Citizenship processing time varies province by province ? eg. a person living and applying from Toronto will have a longer wait time than a person living and applying from New Brunswick / Manitoba.

Thanks!
Yes it does! It varies office by office and province by province. Based on my experience as a July 2018 applicant from Toronto (my CIC office was in Mississauga), I had my oath ceremony on December 2019 whereas other applicants from Calgary had theirs on March 2019.

Nothing special. Just because I met the presence requirement earlier than her. Both of us gave 5 extra days, as you can see. We wanted to send as early as possible. So no need to wait to mail together.
