Mississauga Citizenship Applicants

[akbardxb]

Mississauga must be the cursed office. doesnt look like many oaths reported this week. other offices seem to be going ahead with back log well - 2019 and early 2020s moving based on the forum posts

Speculation, grapevine, rumour, whatever you choose to call it, but Mississauga has been one of the biggest offices for problematic applications (as well as the total number of applications), hence the closer scrutiny. It is frustrating when you know that everything is right in the application, but that's the nature of the beast. I am aware of people in nearby areas in GTA whose travel history and residence in Canada matched mine closely, but they breezed through in 8 months from application to passport (circa 2018/2019) while I'm still waiting, over 3 years later. Yes, Covid has been a factor but.....

lots of good points. everything adds up i agree but there is absolutely no explanation why oath ready applications cant be progressed in a sequence and manner that makes sense-whichever way you look at it. One can only hide behind excuses to a certain extent. how long do you think me or you will stay in a job if all we do is make excuses about why cant we do our jobs properly. it catches up eventually in our world but not in IRCC's world.

Over the last 18 months, I wasn't too worried about this delay since I wasn't headed anywhere because of Covid, but with things looking better now, I certainly hope to travel home and see my family. I'm also approaching the expiry of my Indian passport and the US visa has also expired. Don't really want to shell out money for these, but may not have a choice if this application drags on.

I'll probably wait for another month, then file a Mandamus through a lawyer.
