Afalina said:zzsfx, acanar, congrats!
acanar, what is your local office?
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.
sept15 said: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...
this is if: 'Received' and 'In Process' status appear at once...
Cheers
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
sept15 said:do you have any numbers to show that, farrous.
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.

sept15 said:thanks not bad - kinda like 2-2.5 months... that is not bad at all.
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.
