Update (more details in the Vancouver thread):

I got an email from the Vancouver-itinerant office offering 8 dates in either Vancouver or Surrey. Or wait till the Fall for Vancouver island dates.

If confirmed and if I pass the test/interview, I will have both test and oath on June 15th.

In process since early Feb.


EDIT: June 15th date confirmed by CIC through email, will receive the official invite 3-4 weeks prior to event

Montreal is processing extremely slow. Seems they haven't done anything since 15th of March. Anybody knows why ?

I have a friend with a family who applied at the end of October and they became CITIZENS on March 8th for a grand total of 139 days. I am 91 days now "in process," so yeah seems slow to me. I think they selected a certain number of files and are working through those to completion before starting the second set. It seems if you didn't make that first group it is going to be a while. I don't know anything particular, just watching the spreadsheets.

So I called up CIC regarding my test in Hamilton even though I live in downtown Toronto. They said the Toronto office is swamped and applications are being off loaded to other centers where the load is not that heavy. I am fine with that!

Hi, i feel that most of the candidates receive Finger Print requests.
It is gonna be amazing if it is added to the spread sheet.
From my limited experience, I think it takes about 1-2 months to receive test invitations after finger print requests.
Does anyone have any idea about processing times after FP?

Anyone who got IP Mid February, received the invitation to Exam?
