[agp2176]

did you send it by canadapost ? you can check it online just type your tracking number from the receipt and it will show the details and the person who signed to receive the envelope. you will expect like 45 days if there is no problem in the docs before they will send AOR .

expidited
Yes -- by Canadapost -- Xpresspost

Mine was delivered this morning at 8.47 AM .. when does the signature stuff show up? I am also curious how long between delivery to thnm and it starts to appear on line -- as in, when do they open the envelope

Tony

Signature for me showed up a few hours later on the same day it was delivered, but it did show as just delivered without signature at first.
I also spoke to a cic agent this morning and they said they are opening June/July envelopes right now. So they are behind approximately 3 months. So I would say sometime in January 2015 for October 2014 applicants.

I just hope they can give us AOR before Christmas or end of the year..so everyone will be happy at least.. just a wishful thinking...

Applied on Oct-20-2014,
Canadapost indicated that it got delivered on Oct-23, Morning.

One interesting findings(Probably good news for us):
1. First, I noticed that there is a thread indicating someone got entire process in like 6 month(Applied in March2014, oath last week).
2. Then I flipped couple 2014 application thread(Jan-March) and found more similar events, all applied at beginning of 2014 and received citizenship oath last week. (maybe that what we've known so far)
3. Noticed that all fast processing location is, Scarborough.......
4. someone also mentioning that they has been seeing 150 days processing time this year, due to the fact that we are paying like 400 dollars (double of what before. ) someone also mentioned about the "new decision model", thats affecting this.

maybe its just one location getting fast; or maybe across the board is getting fast.

I personally thinking that the processing time will be faster also as next year is election year, I am sure with all the money spending on the CIC would at least reflect something (like parliament report) and this fast time make sense because in order to get ave. time down, there gotta be some fast cases.
and lastly, new citizens means more votes......

Finger crossed!!!!!
