November 2017 - Citizenship Applicants

[HLR]

Application sent on the 1st NOV 2017 , confirmation received 27 DEC 2017
Do not understand why I can not get in my file throughout Application number or UCI which are in the email I received today. System does not recognize it.

@razerblade I think you should add them to the November sheet and the confirmation seems to be AOR because the application was sent on November 1.

 

[HLR]

yes, we received ours today 2 adults and 4 children

@razerblade this one too

Please also look at these two as well. @androme and @akamran88 have missing Application delivered dates which prevented them from adding to the processing time comparison sheet although they got their AORs. If you can safely assume their application delivery time 4-5 days and add it to the sheet.

Copied from www.Canada.ca "gather your documents" section:

"Step 3 – Gather your documents
Submit the following documents with your application:

• original printout of your Online Physical Presence Calculation or form CIT 0407 (PDF, 1.98MB)
• photocopies of all valid and expired passports or travel documents you had in the past 5 years. If you don’t have these documents or there are gaps in time between travel documents, we will ask for an explanation.
• if you didn’t have a passport in the past 5 years:
  • photocopies of 2 pieces of government issued identification with your name, date of birth and photograph
• if you had a passport in the past 5 years:
  • photocopies of 1 piece of government issued identification with your name, date of birth and photograph
• If you are 18 to 54 years old:
  • Photocopies of your proof of English or French language ability if you are 18-54 years of age. Examples of what you can provide include the following:
    • results of a third-party language test;
    • diploma, certificate or transcripts from a secondary or post-secondary education program in Canada or abroad, where the language of study was English or French
    • proof that you have reached the Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level 4 or higher through a government-funded language training programs.
      OR
  • If you are 18-54 years of age and unable to demonstrate that you have the necessary English or French language ability due to a medical condition, you must submit a supporting evidence with your application. Please provide photocopies of one of the following:
    • An audiogram and an attestation issued by a Canadian audiologist if you are hearing impaired; or
    • Evidence from a medical practitioner in Canada if you have a disorder, disability or condition that is cognitive, psychiatric or physiological in nature.
• Photocopy of personal identification
• two (2) identical citizenship photos
• The application fee of $630.00 per adult paid online. Use the Document Checklist (CIT 0007) (PDF, 1.83MB) to make sure your application package is complete. Submit the completed checklist with your application."

This clearly states that 1. If you didn't have a passport in last 5 years then you need photocopies of 2 govt. issued ID's 2. If you had passport in last 5 years then you need photocopy of 1 govt. issued ID.

And in the next line they said photocopy of personal identification also but m so confused so i want to ask other people if they submitted two IDs or just one who received their AOR

My application was urgent ( professional reasons) I guess that's why it was quick , however , it's been under IP for more than a month , below copy of my application :

1. We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 14, 2017.
2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s), and a study book called Discover Canada on November 20, 2017.
3. We started processing your application on November 23, 2017.

@HLR, I added made up app delivery dates for @akamran88, and @androme.
