Oath Timeline after test at St. Clair Office

[Rayan14]

Is there merit in withdrawing an application and re-submitting it?

 

[canadiansoon]

I got my oath letter in the mail today, it was sent April 21. My oath is on May 05th.

I submitted my application in Scarborough in October 2012, got RQ in July 2013 (transferred to St Clair), did my test in February 2014, got asked for additional documents in February 2015 from St Clair, and now invited to Oath on May 05th in Mississauga.

Thanks to everyone here for the great information and the support. I will still be on this site for any questions.

I heard conflicting opinions about withdrawing the file and re-applying from different people.

Some were of opinion that unless you were short on the minimum required days for eligibility, withdrawing the application may raise suspicions and the new application may go through the same or more scrutiny just to ascertain why its been re-applied.

On other side, some says since you will be paying more fee, it might encourage CIC to process your application much faster.

Its difficult to predict the monkey business of CIC and their style of working. I share your pain, our lives were left in hanging due to callous attitude of CIC. May be after Federal Elections, thing might improve.

If you are sure that you meet the resident requirement than stay at your course..

if you re apply you will be get the same treatment, RQ, finger print, long

waiting time, non routine application..

Sorry to say this friend but it seems to me like something really went wrong with your application in CIC. The reason I am saying is that we are seeing mid to late 2012 applicants getting oaths or ATIP showing some progress. Earlier applicants have been who have not receive oaths yet are receiving some kind of communication from CIC (CIT 0520 , second RQ etc.)
I suggest you call the CIC call center and try to extract as much information as you can...perhaps they just lost your file.

contacted CIC last week stating file under security clearance RCMP,

waiting for last 40 months, I do not need any test due to my age..

This doesn't make any sense to me.

I started to feel hopeful seeing all this late 2012 applicants have their cases approved . But after reading your post as well as Rayan's case maybe this wave of warm optimism is premature. According to your timelines I might be expecting to be delayed into 2016.
