September 2017 Citizenship Applications

[New_Citizen]

When you call CIC, can they at least told you if the background and taxes checks have been done or is it useless to call for those informations? I don't want to spend 4 hours on the phone for nothing.

If there is nothing wrong in the case, do you know why they are waiting to send a test invitation to people? Do they have to wait for a certain number of person?

Thanks

I took the advice and I called the CIC asking whats wrong??
During the review of my contact details I discovered that they have registered my email wrong (they typed a dash instead of an underscore) and the agent requested that I should fill an online form and send it back and it will take 5 to 10 business days for correction. So I will contact them next week to confirm

good for you.. atleast now you know the problem ..

Hi,

Did they ask you for Confirmation of landing. My test is on Jan 30th and I cant find my confirmation of landing

Yes, they checked my COPR

 

[Can.Van]

to my knowledge, you need that document to be able to retire in canada. i hope you just misplaced it and did not lose it! we actually keep ours in our bank safe in case our house burns down. that is a very important document.

I totally agree

Thanks!

This was correct.

I received the test invite in regular email on 18th. (Ecas had date of 15th) This has all the venue details and documents to bring... Excited ! The long journey from 2010 is coming to an end ...

When I called to check if my fingerprints had been received, the agent told be my background checks were "complete". Of course, I'm still waiting for the test invite... I am assuming the delay in my case is the reconciliation of the 4.5 pages of data submitted for the physical presence calculator (I travel a lot for work). There should be no issues, as I have been living in Canada since 2003, but I'm sure it takes time to check.

Hey members,

I have a question regarding my passports translated stamps, So I've included copies of both of passports (current & expired) with translated stamps for every non english/french stamp as part of my application.
Do I need to translate another copy to bring with me to the test or the one included in the application is sufficient ( I have one extra non-english/french stamp since I submitted the application)

Many thanks,

I had the same experience, when i called CIC regarding my FP checking status, the agent was not able to tell me whether they received my FP, saying she can not see the details. however, she said that she can see the FP check status is complete, thus assume that everything is okay.

Hi Guys,
Which number are you calling the CIC at?

Whenever i call, an automated voice message says that " we are not accepting calls regarding the status of Citizenship Application" I've tried many times.
Im in Toronto.
