Hello All,

I have been following this forum the day I took my test at Scarborough Office on 31-08-2015 (19/20 passed) but got myself registered today. Just letting the participants know that things are moving along fast now after the elections. Sharing my timeline hereunder - will complete 1 year by the time I become Canadian citizen in shaa Allah.

1-We received your application for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship) on November 20, 2014.
2-We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on February 17, 2015.
3-We started processing your application on March 26, 2015.

Application: August 2012
CIC: Received application on April 11, 2013; Started processing in June 2013.
RQ received in Oct. 2013, sent back all documents within a month.
then no information for 2 years.....
Test:Sept. 22, 2015
Decision Made: Sept. 25
Oath: Oct.19
Applied Passport on Oct.2, Received on Oct.22.

DONE WITH CIC!!!

A couple of things to share:
- A lot of the processes depends on the officer.. I've met different officers through the process of my P.R card renewal and citizenship interview, and results really vary. The officer interviewed me after my test didn't say anything about the oath date, and even said they need to further make a decision. I thought I would wait for longer than 4 months. But in fact, I think she expedited my oath!
- You can apply for citizenship and leave the country after, as long as you met the requirement at the time you signed your application. ( I even signed my application when I left Canada to study abroad. Came back 1 year after and left again. As long as you have a Canadian address to received all the letters CIC might send to you.)
- Keep checking the online status. I almost lost my confidence on my application after such long period of wait, but suddenly received notice to the test when I randomly went on to check my status. Could have missed it!
- For those who received RQ, it's not the end. Have a little faith! I know who struggling and annoying the process is but it will eventually end!

Good luck!

Wow!! Never knew we had people from 2012 still waiting. Hats off to your patience, Bro. Good to know you are done with it.
