October 2019 - Citizenship Applicants

[PMV]

This is one of those situations where silent treatment isn't helping anyone.

Il y avait des circonstances personnelles hors de mon contrôle. J'ai postulé quand j'ai pu, ce qui est maintenant. C'est vraiment un gros "deal" pour moi, ce qui n'est pas drôle pour moi.

Es-tu de l'Inde?

Hi Guys,

Out of curiosity looked into the 2019 spreadsheet. The following is the summary of dates when the last updates were received for each milestone. I used data from all months in 2019 applications as maintained in the spreadsheet (2019 Applicants Click Here).

This clearly shows no progress for Test Invites

Citizenship Process Milestones	Date (When last updated)	Day of Week
AOR	07/Aug/2020	Friday
In Process ecas	13/Mar/2020	Friday
Test Invite letter/ecas date	19/Mar/2020	Thursday
Test Interview date	21/Apr/2020	Tuesday
Decision Made date ecas estimate	10/Jul/2020	Friday
Oath Letter Date	12/Aug/2020	Wednesday
Oath Ceremony	27/Aug/2020	Thursday

It's just so disheartening. I wish they could at lease provide us with some sort of update when they "think" tests may resume...now with corona numbers rising again it likely won't be until the new year.

Agree, I think it would be fair for them to give us some information on this, instead of just ignoring people, I know its a privilege , but we did pay a chunk of money for this

Huge Chunk of Money and Time of our life

I think if your over 55 you dont even have to do the test or child, so personally ( I know people dont agree and not looking for an argument ). I think maybe they should just consider this for this covid situation.

Es-tu de l'Inde?

Non, de Pologne.

Yes, and they raised the fees significantly to streamline the process. The least they can do is just tell us when they hope to resume testing, or discuss their preliminary plans.

Well, I don’t know if this would help, but maybe if we keep calling them and asking on social media, this issue may catch their attention? I know that they are posting a lot of useless stuff on Facebook, and don’t reply when people ask about PR, citizenship, sponsorship. But what else can we do?

Just submitted a feedback to IRCC asking for more information on what to expect. This is the link in case you want to do the same: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/feedback-retroaction/form-forme-eng.aspx?type=2

It makes it even more frustrating when they make useless posts and ignore the real Immigration issues.

Done. I have been trying to be patient but now that everything has re-opened, I don't see why citizenship tests can't resume? (of course with safety measures in place). At least give us some updates/news regarding this. The uncertainty is really tough on the mind.

 

[Lorrainevintage]

Agree with you all, as Justin says " Enough is Enough" lol.

No need to update cic on new passports.

Thank you for the reply

 

[zainy89]

Just bring It with you when you take your test. I’m in the same situation and called IRCC to ask about this.

Thanks a lot
