Ottawa Applications
- Thread starter lostincic
- Start date
I am not sure what JT means but I do have JT in my email subject line. The application is still In progress.
JT are the initials of the agent who is handling our files. So we are in the same boat.. This JT is probably the slowest officer in Ottawa. Just google "JT Ottawa citizenship" in this forum and you will see stories about what he/she did in June July as well.
Very upsetting.
Not sure what we can do to push it to the next step. In the email they said 2-4 weeks so I have to wait till Dec 8, that's when 4 weeks complete since the ceremony. I have no hope of things changing by then. Not sure if going directly to the office and talking to someone who deals with citizenship application processing will help in any way. The security won't let me past the entry gate. But I guess it will be worth a try.
@Doda @carol90 @Ottawa-applicant did you guys have JT in the Oath invite email subject line received from the Ottawa CIC?
I really don't know what to do with Ottawa office. I had oath on Oct 27th, its been 37 days and still certificate is printed yet. Status is still in progress.
I don't think you can just go to their office unless they ask you to come in person. I have seen a few urgent cases where they asked to come in person. I am ready to drive 6hrs (3hrs one way) to Ottawa just to pick the certificate and get done with IRCC for good, sent 2 emails over the last weeks with request for urgent processing. Emails were opened but no reply.
Good news for those waiting for test invites, I did a quick search and found two july applicants, one from august and one from november who received their invites, none of them mentioned urgent. It is really strange how they are selecting the files for processing. I guess the citizenship officers they go to the mail room and randomly grab from each month for paper applications.

Thank you for reply. Actually you can only download the electronic certificate if you have opted for e-certificate during oath. Which was not an option when I had my oath back in October. This is very new and I was told it’s only been offered since Dec 1st.
I checked with my info and it says “you didn’t opt-in for eCertificate.
Interesting. That would make things easier and quicker if we can use it to apply for the passport.

Hey!
Where did you find them? The spreadsheet doesnt show any july applicants from ottawa who got test invites, or any month after June actually
Im a september applicant and honestly im feeling really hopeless these days. And very very angry at how slow and careless ottawa office is. Dont think wr will hear anything before new years

Thats interesting, any idea how long after oath this would be available and whether you can use it to apply for the passport?
