Hi all,

Type: Online application
Location: Richmond Hill, ON
Processing office: Sydney (but my fingerprint request came from the Vancouver office)
Physical Presence Days: 1150
Application: Family (2)
Application sent: 2023-09-12
Delivered: 2023-09-12
AOR: 2023-10-23
Tracker updated for Citizenship test: 2023-11-02
Test Email received: 2023-11-08
Test completed: 2023-11-27
Fingerprint request letter: 2023-11-10
Fingerprint received in tracker: 2023-12-21
BG completed: 2023-12-22
LPP: In progress

I made the mistake of going to my local police to collect the fingerprints, which ended up delaying things a bit, as they only send the report to me. I had to then send it to Vancouver (despite my case apparently being handled out of Sydney according to my AOR letter, go figure), which took a bit of time.

Currently waiting on Languages, Prohibitions and Physical Presence to go through.

Cheers!

Has any SCR applicant completed LPP? What’s your AOR?
SCR began processing August LPPs, and some applicants from the first week (Aug) are already done. I'm still waiting as well; mine is Sept 5th, AOR: Oct 16th. Let's make sure to share any updates.

Hello Friends, I need your help.

I am planning to submit my citizenship file (applying Online). I have few questions:-

1) Under physical presence section: I got PGWork permit 4 months before study permit expiry. which expiry date I should put (in section Date of Expiry Status) for study permit. the once in study permit they mentioned or the day before I got my PGWP?

2) what documents to upload under Optional Document Section? is it good idea to
upload all pages of old and new passport?

3) for some months I was staying in different address vs address in driving license. which address to put? the one in driving license or the kne I was actually staying in those period?

4) I have total 1120 days. should I apply or add more buffer before applying? does it impact the process?
