Then DOUG is surely EATING OUR APPLICATIONS, this explains why they don't want us to add more documents, Doug only eats up to 20 pages at once 
Wait till you meet Doug 3.0... The new Doug will not only be able to eat up to 50 pages at once, but he will also be able to digest stapples! Indeed, things are moving fast at CIC... !

Just a comment about making fun of CIC staff.
I'm 100% sure it is technically possible to map this forum's nicknames to CIC cases based on application delivery & case opening dates and name of a person who received application.
If I had been CIC, I would have done this, especially for those who ask questions which can affect citizenship (in case CIC comes to know extra details mentioned on this forum).

Nobody is insulting anyone, we are just trying to laugh about a very sad situation that CIC is responsible for. This is not kindergarten and if CIC has time to link forum users to applications, then they surely better spend it to take care of speeding up the process.
With all due respect, I am happy that you are not CIC.
Better safe than sorry.
Not exactly the same, but there was report that someone had to explain discrepancies between his application and facebook account.
I wish I were CIC, then the processing for honest people would have been much faster. For instance, I would have checked how many applications meet RQ criteria before introducing the change in 2012...

Better safe than sorry, that's true... But I didn't come to Canada to live in fear!
So to make some of you more comfortable, what we were trying to say is that we noticed, in the small sample of people that we are, that applications received by Doug Stephens and Mike Conn are taking longer than the applications received by other people. Now how much of a fact this thing is, is another story, and our theory might be irrelevant, but in no way we have to sit there and accept that so much discrepancies are noted between our applications. There should be a maximum timeframe for everything : AOR, Grants, etc... what is happening for now is that there is a notable mess at CIC and I bet at other public offices too, this is just the tip of the iceberg and someone has to be held accountable for that.
If I want to become a citizen of this great country, it is also because I care about its present and its future... my vote, but also my freedom of speech, are going to be my main tools.

I totally agree with you guys.
CIC likes to hide under the cozy blanket with a popular brand name "Case to case basis", with no freaking accountability at all. Enjoy vacations, fat salary, bonuses etc and then they realize there is a pile of applications on their desk, that's the time they start eating, tossing, slapping RQ's etc. God know's when there will be definitive max. time frames for each step.

umm...well, Stork1, we have no updates and this in itself is an update, this also makes october applicants with no updates yet feel that they are not alone in this case.
We also figured that documents received in october by certain people are still not on Ecas, versus those received by others...
