Thanks Afalina! I don't know what is my local office, the letter didn't have that information.Afalina said:zzsfx, acanar, congrats!
acanar, what is your local office?
hey Afalina, Looks like Vancouver, Montreal and SK processing office are slowest of the slow and hence it is going to take some extra times for us... I have come to conclusion that mine will not get updated until 1-2nd week of February... not sure about the Montreal/Vancouver office though...Afalina said:ramsfe, did you try to call again?
I will call them at the end of January, when it will be 3 month since they received my application. Btw, although I sent the application via Express post, nobody signed it (so I have nobody to blame for long processing . I sent it to PO Box 7000, so did not expect it to be signed anyway.

this is if: 'Received' and 'In Process' status appear at once...
Cheers
do you have any numbers to show that, farrous.farrous13 said:on the contrary, Montreal is very fast since April 2013. Applicants are being scheduled in 5 to 8 months for the test. I cannot comment on Vancouver or SK.
Windsor is the fastest. applicants are getting the citizenship in 8 months!!! Lucky them

i know for a fact that SK is racing snails.
farrous13 said:sure check the May 2013, June 2013 and July 2013 posts. I am in the May 2013 one. There is a table. The highlighted one is the applicant from Windsor.
i am looking at your timelines.. yours was received may 27 and in process sept 10 - that is not fast compared to others... are you relatively speaking... theory of relativity, lolfarrous13 said:sure check the May 2013, June 2013 and July 2013 posts.

Cool. I have been told and saw that 11 months to write the test once the case is in process is the normal trend in SK. But I did see that, once the test is done for the SK applicants, the rest like oath does not take too long... it falls with in 22-24 months after the application is submitted to complete the entire application...farrous13 said:In my case, I got no invitation to the test. Applicants received test dates in Dec and beginning of January. I, on the other hand, was away in Dec and first week of Jan. I notified the CIC. I am not sure if that's the reason for the delay.
According to the table, 5 to 6 months is an average to take the test for applicants who applied in May onwards. talking about Montreal of course.
