November - 2019 Citizenship Applications

[CaBeaver]

It is depressing. We are waiting for the oath now almost 4 months, i dont beleive there will be any sign on progress with what’s happening downtown.

I waited 5.5 months for the oath after DM, 9 months after the test. I think these extreme delays at all stages are not justified anymore. They are signs of a system failure. Failure to adapt. Failure to accept the facts. In my home country now you can get your passport in 2 hours, while in Canada it takes > 25 business days after you get your certificate which may take 4 weeks to be received after the oath. That's why I am worried of not getting the passport before my planned/wished for travel. This is ridiculous to be honest. I have tried to understand them, but however I tried, no justification is acceptable. None. We have lives. Celebrations to attend. Parents to visit ... etc.

This situation is affecting me mentally now. I applied in 2019 , all sections "in progress" still . It is unacceptable what IRCC is doing.

I know tons and tons of 2021 applicants who already have citizenship and passport in hand. I know somebody who applied in April 2021, and they already have citizenship and passport in hand. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE ?!!?!?

New applicants are finishing the process in 6-10 months. While 2020, and 2019 and 2018 applicants are WAITING ENDLESSLY.

Maybe we should make our own protest in ottawa ???????????? It seems the truckers got what they wanted. We should protest also.

I'm at the same boat ( 2019 application). Finished the test in May 2021 and updated to complete. No other updated till now. Everything in progress. Oath not start.
I called them ten's times my MP called them twice. Submitted ATIP in November 2021 and received it in January 2022 .
AND NOTHING CHANGE.

If you are white Canadian, then by all means protest, and no one will move a thing against you. Otherwise you will be charged with 300 charges for disturbing the peace of Canada if you protest peacefully

Sooner or later will be finalized so just waiting nothing else.

I need to clarify something. I have different processed dates on the application. ECAS says 30th Jan which is AOR and new status check says AOR 30th Jan but processed on 17th Feb. Which one do you think I fall in?

We’re currently finalizing most applications we received between

September 29 and October 5, 2019

Does it means that all applications prior to this date range is 100% complete?

No, absolutely not. Most applications doesn't mean all applications

Instead of month based thread may be we all 2018/2019 forgotten applicants should create 1 new master thread, might help in observing some pattern

That is really a good idea. Thanks.

 

[CaBeaver]

Today, my journey with IRCC has come to an end by receiving my citizenship certificate. Thanks everyone, and I hope your turn to those who are still waiting is very soon. Good luck

How about all 2019 applicants who hasn’t even received citizenship invitation go protest in front of Sean Fraser(immigration minister) office.This is the only way I see we could be heard..
