This is NOT the full blown RQ and that makes a difference.

The CIT 0520 is usually (not always) a good indicator there are no serious concerns, that IRCC is merely doing due diligence and verifying particular information or documents. In contrast to the full blown RQ, CIT 0171, many reports about the CIT 0520 have reported minimal further delays.

The actual timeline, however, will vary and can vary a lot. I do not follow Montreal timelines much, but as I previously noted historically Montreal has been among the most difficult to forecast (and non-routine cases appear to take particularly longer in Montreal).

Just waiting for the oath after a favourable decision has been made seems to sometimes take longer in Montreal.

Nothing to do now but be patient, wait and be patient.
